Although I have a looooong way to go, I thought I would share my progress so far. Today was my weekly weigh-in and I was down 2 lbs.

I'm feeling motivated and wanted to share!

Great Job!! You are an inspiration, would you mind if i asked what a typical day of eating for you might be like?

Thank you! You should be really proud of yourself!

skoolmarm729 · 05-07-2008, 10:45 AM

Thanks everybody for your kind words and encouragement. It's what we all need to keep us going sometimes. My road ahead is long, but with the help of everyone here, it won't be as difficult.

What works best for me is keeping it simple-- meat, eggs, veggies, and fat. I also drink ONLY water (lots of it!)- no coffee or diet drinks at all. I have not touched any LC convenience foods (shakes, bars, etc.). I plan on having those convenience foods as a treat much, much later when I'm close to or at my goal weight. That's it!

Thanks again everybody!

TiffJake · 05-08-2008, 01:19 AM

I just want to add to the congrats, and also mention that I see you are smoke-free too, since April 5th! Double congrats on that!! I quit a long time ago, and I really want one sometime, when I am craving junk food. I am very impressed and inspired! Thank you for sharing with us!

Roxy1975 · 05-08-2008, 07:27 AM

gurlradiant · 05-10-2008, 02:41 AM

Congratulations!

guardian · 05-10-2008, 03:58 AM

I think that everybody should take a picture before starting.
This is the best motivation ever to keep on track.
Secondly your "head" has to be ready for a change in life and last but not least you need people that support you.
Beste it is you wive of husband, your friends or family.
OR ofcourse there are people like us.
If you do this you WILL get there.
The road ahaed is not easy but with the right guide you will stay on it.
Congrats.

godsbeloved79 · 05-11-2008, 07:05 PM

DolphinsOnMyMind777 · 05-12-2008, 05:12 AM
