Biggest mistake made is not consuming enough calories to run your body.  As crazy as it may sound, you have to increase them to change your metabolism and burn fat.  Going to agree with chrissy1988.  The trick is eating the right calories.

Colace is a stool softener that I take almost every night.  I have IBS and the more fiber I consume the more uncomfortable I feel.  Plus you must drink a ton of water!  Do not forget about yogurt with active cultures!

Well I started the morning eating a piece of homemade dutch apple pie and black coffee for breakfast! Yum!  I got the turkey stuffed and cooking and walked 3 miles! Had a huge lunch and pumpkin pie for dinner! Pretty much pinched at the stuffing all night though!  Weighed in at .5 lbs over my last weigh in!  Kind of ate the same way today but I do not intend on weighing myself again till next weekend!  I fully enjoyed the food and did not intend on denying myself of any of it.  I just had small portions.  The only thing I really feel guilty about was that one yeast roll that when I later checked, it was worth 140 calories.  Man it was good but I won't do that again!

I am 47.....5'7"....I have lost 64 lbs and I have gone from a 38DDD to a 34-36DDD and can wear some DD cups.  I have lost 6 inches in my waist hips and thighs just recently by walking at least 3 miles a day!  I started walking this past May.  Walking removes inches.....it is spot reduction in a sense!

Well if a piece of pumpkin pie is all I can have for lunch then so be it!  I will be very selective in my calorie choices so that I do not deny myself the pleasure of my own great cooking!  Count everything and have a Happy Holiday Season!

At my heaviest, I could not understand why I was so fat when I was only consuming about 600-800 calories (in food) a day.  Well it was the other 1000 + calories in alcohol that I worked up to with my mixed drinks and good wine consumption.  Be careful.....alcohol is so fattening!

You do have a great attitude.....you are well on your way!  I have gone from 247 to a wonderful 184.5 with 40 more to go and I am amazed when I get on the scale every week that it keeps coming off. So what if it is only 1 or 1.5 lbs...the fact is, when I look at what I am eating, I could not be more pleased.  Now I decide I would rather have a bowl of cereal instead of a Blue Moon!  It is not dieting....it is a lifestyle change for the better!  I just turned 47 and I cannot believe that I have been so abusive to my body over the years!  It is really nice having my size 16 jeans looking sloppy because they are too big!  Time is irrelevant!  It is about feeling good about ourselves!  Good luck and you have so many of us here for support!

By the way, gi-jane....you are awesome!  I would love for you to critique me!
