Finally I reached the right mindset and I KNOW my diet is going to work this time and I'm going to reach my goal!

I'm a 24 year old female! Singlish! hehe

Umm 5"7 I guess I know i'm 170cm.

Looking for diet buddies with similar goals. Lift eachother up when we stumble during the diet.

Good Luck dieters!!

Hi 

I am new too. I am an Indian living in Riyadh where the party scene inside the compound is crazzzzzzzzzzzyyyyyyyy!!! Its 2 parties every week apart from the weekend splurge.

I am over 24 (unfortunately) and married with 2 kids --12 and 9.

Am looking to lose 15 kgs in as many weeks.Started last week but got onto this site only on Wed.  Have lost 1 kg already.

Its a long hard fight lets keep in touch and support each other.

 

Love

Hi,

My name is cindy, with the same mind set as you.

I have a bit more weight to lose than you but the  same rules apply.

I am 5'7 also, I am married with 3 children and I am not telling my age........Hehehe.........

I also am seeking others with advice and support. I have been doing alot of reading and consulting with my diet and they stated that this website is the best way get you started.It has the food listing, exercise programs, support.

 I look foward to anyone who has suggestions, questions, or just want to chat.

Good Luck to all of you, and God Bless.................

Hi - My name is Janice, I want to lose... uh well uh...

I am 33 years old, married no kids.  I am 5'6. 

4/1 - My Start Weight on CC is 195 (I was 210 at my high in 10/06).   4/6 - I am 193 (2 lbs yeah).    Realistic Goal 155 - 40 lbs total- End of August 2008, Dream Goal 135 - 55lbs - Christmas 2008

I am on a work assignment in San Franciso for 3 months.  This is a test for me.  My husband is back home and I live in a Residence Inn.  So, I have a stove & Microwave. 

This week, I have worked out almost everyday (Walked on Treadmill 25 minutes) and kept track of my food through Calorie Counter.  It is interesting to know... even though you are eating healthy foods how they can add up so fast.  Imagine what it was when my husband and I ate out all the time.  It is no wonder how I got to my weight.

I am looking for support in this and home that I can lose atleast 15 - 20 lbs by the time I return home from this assignment in 3 months!  Keep your fingers crossed. Laughing

 

 

 

Oops I sent this straight to Jordan rather than all you ladies

Hi ladies I just made up my mind last night too. I said that's it I can't go on like this any longer. I have 32 kls to lose about 55 lbs (awful isn't it).

The board gave me a goal for June next yr. I would really like to make it by Christmas this yr. I get down in the dumps easy and need encouragement to exercise so I could use a hand by you lovely ladies. I plan to make a journal of my thoughts and moods and hoping it will keep me on track. Can others read other peoples journals on this site? If yes you are welcome to visit and comment.

Hey Cindy!

Good luck on your diet!

First advice I'm going to give you is never go on a starvation diet. Did them so many times especially at times when I had an occasion coming up.

I would lose a few pounds. My weight would FREEZE! and then the moment I eat one thing I gain so much. Basically my metabolism gets screwed.

Now I have 3 meals and losing weight! much better than the previous crazy diets I did and atleast u dont get bored of your diet and you don't feel like you're out of energy. So chances for you to stick to the diet would be much higher.

Soon I'll be posting my diet. I visit a dietition. My next appointment is on thursday.

Best of luck

Hecallme!

Hell yea you can lose 15 - 20 lbs in 3 months!!

that's more than 12 weeks! if you just lose a bit over a pound a week you'll get to your goal.

 

Hello all:

Just started a week and a half ago with success so far.

I'm 24 years, in BC Canada and need to lose another 50 lbs.

Although, despite my small frame I am also quite "athletically" built so I don't think I would look good at my projected weight.

Anyway, happy to get/give advice from this group!

Hi Hmiyasaki

I'm An.  I used to live in Toronto but now I'm on the other side of the world in Malta, Europe.

I know what you mean about your goal weight. CC says I should be 58 kls.  I was there once apon a time and 2 kids ago and wasn't happy so I gained some weight and found I was more happy at 60-62 kls.  Sorry not sure of how to put it in lbs.  What I mean is, your goal weight can always change to fit with what you feel happy with.

Keep up the good work! And hi to all the ladies here.

Has anyone looked back at pictures of themselves from times that they THOUGHT they looked overweight and disgusting just to find how wrong they actually were?

This has happened to me repeatedly through the years, and now at my heaviest, I wish for the time I was even 10 lbs lighter!

Remember you're Hot and Sexy if you believe it!

hi,

I'm seventeen and really trying to turn my life around. I too have gotten to the point where i'm fed up and actually the posting caught my eye because i have to lose exactly 45 pounds. I'm really excited and extremely happy to know that there is such a large community of people who can empathize and understand. It's pretty amazing!

Hi ladies

How is everyone going so far?  Me so so I lost some weight 1.2 kilos so far just to find that my legs are swelling like water balloons. Could be the weather.  It's suddenly got really hot here. It's jumped from 20C to 28C in one day.

I'm finding it hard to find time to cook for myself the last couple of days.  The kids aren't feeling so well so it's mommy this and mommy that and trying everthing to make them forget that they're sick.

As you can guess exercise is out the window. Though I am doing some weight lifting karting the kids around if that counts. Ha ha
