I agree with the above post, but in addition, make sure you are staying well hydrated.
You might be right about the hydration... I did not drink any water while I was working out... Thanks |

Wooooo whoooo Goood for you... That is great...
Yeh! I lost 2.8 lbs but its always easy in the beginning. I did cardio 4 times and weights twice last week. I have been good with my diet all days but Saturday - had a few more almonds then I should have (who knew they had so many calories). But today I did great - went shopping ALL day but had packed a bag of various fruits so I could munch all day til I got home for dinner to have a veggie burger. Now if I can make it to bedtime without cheating...... Til next Saturday ... Good luck everyone!

Yea you are so right ... I just thought I would put in Feb just as a target... But I know its going to take longer for me to lose it... I have a weakness for food ...LOL... So wee can keep this going till we all have reached our goals ... And when one reaches their goal we can help her maintain and she can support us while we lose... LOL.. Im going to be here a while LOL
I agree. I like the idea of a longer goal date time period. I would be stoked to just lose the last, stubborn 5 lbs. I set out at 270 to get to 150 having been at my thinnest 152 in 10th grade and 155 after a crazy Atkins stint a few years back. I have seen 153 with some consistency, but it is SO MUCH slower now then it was when I started.
My weight loss plan is just my life now. I run with my dog or ride a bike, with some strength training, pretty much every day. I eat 1500-1700. Booze is a tough one for me. I am TRYING not to drink but maybe once a week on weekends until the holidays. Sort of for losing, but osrt of just to prove to myself I can do it. I drink too much --- nothing crazy, but you know empty cals are bad and all. =P I drink 3 33 oz bottles of water at work (try and succeed almost all week every day -- just habit) and drink more at home, no even diet soda. I try to be very aware of my sodium and keep it low. it makes me retain water = gain, annoying, but manageable, eh? I get lots of fiber/pill, take a vitamin, lots of veggies and tons of fruit. more fish and chicken then red meat. if I eat the right food, I find I get a lot to eat. I also made a huge list of snacks and ideas when I first started as I found things I liked that were GOOD, satisfying substitutes for my old, "bad" favorites.  LOL --- I did not mean to spout a bunch of junk, but I liked the paragraph I started. It was kind of cool to hear myself talk about how my mental outlook has changed since June O7 at 230 (270, last time I got down to 155 doing Atkins) WOW.
All my other challenges are more short terms like Xmas or New Year's, so this one will be good. ( ;
I'd love to hear any so close you can taste it, plateau busting tips besided zigzagging and changing my workouts. (I'm trying those already)
MENUS -- http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=1200 +cal+free+menu+plans+&btnG=Google+Search& amp;aq=f&oq= ; (you'll have to cut and paste that, but free menus 1200 cals galore)
GOAL clothes -- HECK YEAH. I do that all the time. My swim suit when I went on vacation to Cali. I have to go to prom every year, so I use my dress to get going. or I don't always buy though. go try on clothes at the end and beginning of a season -- scope out what you would love to buy, find the size the fits, and try it on when you go grocery shop. I go to WalMart, but it is an easy way to check yourself.
I saw a lot of "I'm news too" welcome to cc. it rocks. take measurements now before you lose much. sometimes the scale lies, but the inches never do. ( : cheers!
SORRY SO LONG.

Mainly because it's over... I am going to have Christmas here at my house and Im going to make low cal healthy stuff and Im going to take control of the situation... Good luck to you and keep your chin up. |

Wow that is great... You are my hero.. I have about 20 pounds to lose and I love the chocolate royal... Thank you for giving me some hope...
Hm, I must be the only one. I've lost 46 lbs now and do the shakes. I honestly love the stupid things and get excited about drinking it every day. I'm not even remotely hungry either. I'm doing the high protein chocolate and loving it! I think I'd probably keep drinking it when I'm done with the "diet" part of my "calorie awareness" :)
Maybe it's just me.

i personally would rather have food, then a slimfast drink ,if you choose wisely you can have quite a bit for the same cals as in slimfast shake,
to answer your question my friend tried slimfast and as was really hungry so she was having the shake and then bingeing by the end of the day,so was consuming more in the end then what she normally did,
im 44 and for yrs ive tried every fad going anything for quick weight loss,only to put it back on many times over and more,honestly jackie the only way to do it is a healthy eating plan and exercise,even a brisk 30 min walk can make a diffrence,i dont deprive myself either its all in moderation,ive lost 39 pounds since july 1st,so dont waste your money on the shakes 
Oh wow good for you.. I work allot of hours and I need something that is quick and I thought this would help... Some nights I don't have time to pack my lunch. Do you have any idea's...?

I dont know how old you are but I was 210pounds and I got down to 116 my period recessed and I was not regular ... It was due to the weight lifting I was doing... you might have to back off the physical activity... I hope this helps.. |

I think it might be a water weight gain .. So drink some water and return to your diet and you will be back on track |

Smoking a pack a day burns 200 calories and increases your metabolic rate (that's why you gain weight when you quit). If you reduce your current intake by 200 and get a brisk walk in every day that should at least stop your gain until you get off the patch. ;) Good luck and welcome!
Does this mean 2 packs a day is 400 ... Ihope not I think Ill starve....Ahhhhh....if I reduce my cals to 1200 and excercise is there hope for me |
