Thanks everyone for the input. It is good to hear others' experiences. I guess I will just have to wait and see what happens. Regardless, I went back to my routine today. I ate sensibly and excercised. Thanks again for the support!

Motivation	Getting a little discouraged....	Apr 15 2007 23:16 (UTC)	1
Just tell yourself that nothing tastes as good as skinny feels. I know that may be easier said than done, but it's true. I love food, too, and I've eaten in the past to fill an emotional void, and I'm a lot older than you so this advice comes from experience. Just stay with your recommended calorie intake, and you can eat anything you want, but in moderation. I just had a Reese's miniature peanut butter cup, but I know one is all I can have today. You can do it!

Welcome! It is good to have another member about my age. I have been considering joining Curves, too. I am doing well with the eating part of my program, but need to add more exercise. I've been using this site for almost 2 months now and I really enjoy all the tools and helpful information. You're doing great!
Weight Loss	eating less calories, exercise regularly and gain weight?????	Apr 14 2007 00:00 (UTC)	9
The kinds of weight loss fluctuations you are experiencing are perfectly normal. I weighed 147.4 on Monday. On Tuesday, I dropped to 146.4. Today I was back up to 147. Sometimes it seems like I am not making any progress. But when I look at my weight from week to week, I usually average about .6 to .8 lb. It's slow and sometimes discouraging, but then again, I am not really depriving myself too much, only walking about 3 days a week, and still losing. So I'm satisfied. I saw my doctor this week and discussed it with her. She said that was just a good steady weight loss and I would be more likely to keep it off that way. Keep it up. You'll get there.

I'm in the age group, but not retired yet. I look for posts for the older folks so I hope we get something going here. I don't have much to add. I'm just trying to live better and eat healthy.

It's Sunday and I've lost 9 lbs. in 6 weeks, so I am splurging a little. Breakfast - 1 plain frozen waffle with 1/2 banana and 2 T. syrup Lunch - 1 cup. meat sauce lasagna, 1 slice french garlic/butter bread, 1/2 cup green beans with French's onion rings on top Snack - 1 orange Dinner will probably be a bowl of Special K cereal.

Weight Loss	Calling all women with the about same stats as me (5' 4" and 148 pounds)	Mar 18 2007 21:26 (UTC)	3
I just found this thread. I am 5'4", 149 or 150. I have been going back and forth this week. I am proud of my progress so far. I have lost 7 pounds in 3 weeks. Is anyone else seeing a change in their appetite. I have always had a very good appetite, b ut since joining this site and reducing my calories to the recommended 1200, I find that I do not get very hungry any more. I'll admit I have not gotten into much exercise yet. I would appreciate any comments.
