I have now lost 9-10lbs (I gained a bit of muscle) in just a little over a week. I am excited and look forward to my own progress as well as everyone elses! :) Lets do ittt
So far after joining this site I have lost 3lbs in 2 days, my weight generally goes this way when I am in the mood to do something about it. However sometimes I get stubborn or depressed and quit my healthy lifestyle. I plan to change that this time and keep going! Starting weight here was 268 am now 265. I think this is going to be a good year!
I think I am succeeding and failing. I am losing way in an unhealthy way NOT because I want to. Oh well, life sometimes gets a bit too hard, but at least time goes by fast, and there is always something you can do about it, right?
Rana, I saw your before and after......wow, girl, wow!!!
I'm mostly succeeding but find myself teetering .. and definitely need our community support.
PMoon - sorry you're struggling .. please tell us what specifically you're struggling with. You may want to write a food journal as it does seem to help during those times. It helps us see things or become aware of things we might not see otherwise. For instance, is it during a specific time each day (nights are bad for me) .. or a particular emotion? (If I'm sad or lonely, it is a trigger.) Ask yourself and try to find out what is going on underneath.
As for everyone else .. glad to hear of your successes! Now .. let's keep up our spirits and help each other .. we simply MUST see Skailark in a tutu!
Well....I voted that I am succeeding. I have lost two pounds of my recent gain and I have not thrown in the towel. I believe it impossible to fail without having first given up. : )
Wow - I just voted and it is split 4-4-4 with nobody needing help. Hmmm. I feel like I am failing.
Hope I can find the motivation in the next few weeks - I'm just struggling. Seem to be able to work out - like to work out. But the food part - can't get that under control. Makes me sad. I'm the only one that can turn it around though.........
Finally, instead of holding my own, I am succeeding. I still need you guys - and I expect that to be the same even when I reach my goal. It's NOT reaching my goal as much as STAYING THERE that I need the help with.
I might have to challenge our dear friend - again! We'll see. You guys will help me to stay on the straight and narrow.
The last 2 days I've been fatigued. I was in bed last night at 6:30 (lights out at 7:30). I wish my doctor could figure out just why this is... I'm going to bed in 3.2.1....
I put holding my own, the last few lbs have been kicking me and refuse to leave! But i cant say im failing i have lost 16lbs since i started and i have not been gaining just not losing either!
I am sooo succeeding!! Since my last doctor appointment on Jan 4 I was 297 now today I am at 280.5 so thats 16.5lbs down in 10 weeks!!! I am really excited how great I am doing. I never stayed on a diet for this long, so I am really proud of myself. This weekend me and my boyfriend will be going to Central Park in NYC to walk around. It's about 800 or so acres, so its alot of walking!! Im only 80.5lbs away from my goal for this year and Im so super excited in knowing I can do it!!!
Congrats to those keeping up with the weight loss!!!!
I am currently succeeding, still losing weight dispite not being able to go to the gym.
I do have constant daily battles with myself but failure is not an option for me.I hope i can help and encourage others along the way.
