| Weight Loss | floppy skin | Feb 21 2007 18:26 (UTC) |
|
| I have lost over 150 pounds and did it SLOWLY on Weight Watchers. I carried the majority of my weight in my stomach. I worked out like a fool and couldn't lose my tummy. I opted to do a tummy tuck a year and a half ago and am SOOOOOO thankful!! My tummy is now flat and I'm happy with my looks now. I lost my weight over 2 years but sometimes the skin on our bodies is too streched out to repair on it's own!

| I was just a mexican place last week and I ordered a burrito, minus the cheese, sour cream and guac. I only ate the insides and none of the tortilla. I figured it wasn't bad at all!

| Of course, add me to your friends list! I have lost over 200 pounds with weight watchers and I find the points work GREAT!! I count points and log calories. I find that I eat about 1400-1500 calories a day. 24 points. I think 1,000 deficit is WAY too much unless your very overweight. I try to stick with 500-700 deficit. I workout 5x a week and burn between 700-900 calories. I think I may eat a little too little (that makes ZERO sense) but I have a FREE day, Saturday where I eat a TON! I figure it all balances out!!! Maybe I'll get a before and after pic on here soon!! | |||

| Weight Watchers is a GREAT program!! I have lost over 150 pounds following the points system. I know they say you can eat whatever, but I find that refreshing. Knowing I can have a cookie is WAY better for me then feeling like I CAN'T have something. I don't do well being told I CAN'T have something. On the same token, I WILL not WASTE my points on crap. It makes me choose better foods so I feel more satisfied. I think any program works if you follow it to a tee. Just wanted those of you thinking of WW to know it's GREAT!!

| Weight Loss | Sagging skin from weight loss? | Oct 17 2006 19:45 (UTC) |

| I would say that on a scale of 1-10, the pain was about a 8. You have drain tubes and a big stitch across your entire stomach. They give you good pain meds and if you can, get a pain pump, that helps a lot!! I would do it again in a minute!!
It took me 3 years to lose the weight and that was on Weight Watchers, NO SURGERY and excersising everyday! In fact, I have only missed 1 day in 3 years!!!!!!!!! Jenn |

| I have some bad news..... you can't tighten up loose skin. I have lost over 200 pounds and had a TON of extra skin on my stomach as I carried most of my weight there. I tried my darndest to tighten in up and no such luck. I went for a free consultation to a plastic surgeon and he said that once the skin is strechted so much for so long it will never refirm up. So last October, on Halloween I had a tummy tuck and although the most painful thing EVER it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO worth it!!! I lost 8 pounds and inches galore! I would reccommend this option to get rid of the skin. It's too bad our skin is so picky!! :)

| Well, I workout every morning M-F for 45 minutes and it's INTENSE! I usually burn between 700-900 calories. I work a desk job but am up and down a lot during the day. I run around a bit after work too. I consider myself Moderate due to the excersise. I try to eat between 1500-1700 cals a day. Works for me!

| I am a DIE HARD excersiser and I only have 45 minutes in the morning before work. I do the elliptical Tues and Thurs and the treadmill and elliptical M, W and F. I burn between 700-900 calories working my tail off!!! If you have the extra 15 minutes, I would encourage some strength training too. Free weights in the best versus machines (according to my man who's a body builder). Hope this helps!

| I don't think my fat is too high. It's all good fat, coming from egss, almonds etc.... I am a little low on my calories. I should be eating about 1600 so I may have a extra snack or two. I am feeling quite hungry today!

| Weight Loss | This one's for roj47- October Goals | Sep 30 2006 01:04 (UTC) |

| Well, I'm new to CC so October will be my FIRST full month! Here are my goals:
#1. Continue my 5x a week vigorous excersise regimen. #2. Consume between 1500-1700 calories a day on the days I excersise and 1300 on Sunday. #3. Have only ONE cheat day a week, Saturday ONLY!! #4. Limit my refined carbs and focus on whole grains. #5. Increase my lean protein each day. I average only 30% or so and would like to see at least 40%. #6. Up my fat intake. I only get 10-15 grams a day and would like to see 20%. #7. Keep my sodium intake BELOW 2200. I have a hard time doing this. I think limiting my "convience" foods will help. #8. Actually LOSE weight this month. My goal is to lose 5 pounds. Well, here's to a AWESOME October!!! Jenn |

| Ok, if I go to Sedentary it tells me 1312 calories a day and 2000 to maintain. Is this right?
But if I excersise, I'm not Sedentary right? So, how does that work? I eat 1500 a day 3x a week and 1600 2x a week and then on the weekends, Saturday is my free day and Sunday I eat about 1300. HELP! |
