I lost 15#
Ive really lost 25# since the beginning of the year. But 15# since I joined CC and started eating healthy. Every Morning I go to the back bedroom closet and find something I can wear that day, Either some thing old or something new with tags still on it, that I knew I would be able to wear some day. LOL
I also took a big garbage bag of mostly jeans, some hardly worn at all, in to town to give away. I still have almost 70# to go. But this is feeling good this time. It seems like every time I lose a pound or too, I want to exercise even more.
To anyone just starting, give it a chance, It will work.
That's awesome to hear! Congratulations!
I just started and it's great to hear that it's working for you... hopefully it will work for me this time around! :)
Great job! Keep it going.
Remember that as you start losing the pounds, the rate of loss probably will slow down. Right now you're at about 3 lbs per week, but 1-2 lbs is really recommended unless you're under the care of a doctor. Having said that, it's not unusual for people who have a lot to lose to lose more at first and also that water weight which comes off so rapidly at first. 1-2 lbs/week gives your skin a chance to adapt to the new you.
Way to go! Doesn't it feel good to give away your old clothes?
Keep one pair tho, for comparison!
Congrats!!!! Yeah stands on chair and does happy dance for you!
We have a lot in common I too lost 15 lbs since joining CC, have fallen back in love with my closet, and yesterday filled a donation bag of clothes that are (he, he) too big!
Thanks for sharing your success horsieleanna...you rock!!!!
Great job! I just started on here on Saturday. So far so good, it is easier to keep up with and I can do it from anywhere. Just out of curiosity how many calories to you eat a day. I am on a restrictive diet by my doctor right now. Only eating 1200. I haven't made it to 1200 yet, but have only gone over by about 100 to 150 calories, but have really up my exercise then.

25 lbs is amazing. Great job.
I lost 13 in a few weeks. I think most of it was water. Now I am losing at a slower rate.
I am also a 15# loser since the first of the year.
I have also started slowing down to 1-2 a week in the past 2 weeks. That is okay, since I don't want all that excess skin left over. I was worried at first that I was losing too fast.
CC is terrific.
