10 pounds by the middle of August? Who's up for it? ----GROUP CLOSED!

I started calorie count in November of 2007, since then I lost 22 pounds. But...I gained 2-3 back and I never reached my goal of 145. Right now I am 155-156. I began this journey at 175, 5'8". So who's ready to lose the last 10 with me??

We will have weekly weigh-ins on Friday mornings and post them in this thread, tell how we feel, if we are struggling, etc.

We need support!!

7/11= 180.2

7/18= goal 179

Start - 127.4

7/11 - 124.2

Goal - 117 by August 30 - my wedding!

I wasn't sure how you wanted us to post our weigh ins. So I edited my first post as well.

Hi there,

Master Cleanse requires full desire to cleanse your body. It is not for weight loss program, but the weight that you loose during the detox process is plus. Unless you change your diet and excercise, the weight will come back.

Here is a link that you can visit and learn about the aster cleanse. If you need advice and support. you can email me directly.

I think I'm only going to lose 5 pounds.  Since I've already lost some weight I am focusing on maintaining a 500 calorie deficit for now but I might need to mix things up if things start to slow.

Good luck everyone!  You can do it!  Don't give up!

Congratulations on passing your "plateau"!  That's very exciting.  Keep up the great work!
