Hello All:waving:

I am weighing in at 176.5lbs and wish to lose 60lbs to get down to 116.5lbs.

My current weight is the heaviest I have ever been and I have climbed here steadily from 126lbs over 2 years. I want to get my confidence and my smile back and I am ready to start monitoring what I eat and watching it. I don't expect this weight to be lost overnight and I am going to be patient.

My weight started climbing when i started eating late. I never used to eat later than 6pm as a general rule and I will chow down pizzas, burgers and everything and anything I ever wanted during the day but at night I will just do drinks.

Anyway I am going to document my daily weights and try not to eat late anymore and cut down on carbs and negative energy which I think can also affect weight.

Wish me luck!

Day One

Start weight: 176.5lbs
Goal weight: 116.5lbs
 
Hi there welcome to the WLF!!! I am now at 174.2 so close to where you are and I am hoping to go down to 125lb . It's very good that you realise that this will take time! Are you planning on working out? I am trying to find time to do so it's not easy but with sensible eating and walking a few times a week I have lost 18lb since January, eating well brings results!
 
I am giving myself till January 1st, 2011 to have reached my goal. That averages out at about 2.5lbs a week which is healthy and realistic. I hate exercise and I am trying not to overwhelm myself too soon. I will introduce scheduled exercise after having maintained some sensible eating pattern.
 
Well day two here and I managed to not eat anything after 6pm and............ I lost 2.5lbs. Eating late is just a curse it is responsible for me adding 50lbs. The moment I relaxed and ate late 2 nights in a row that was the end of that. I used to eat later than 6pm never more than once a week if I had an obligatory dinner but now that I'm married there are not too many dinner dates or night socializing so it is a lot easier. Every day I am going to pick something that I won't touch again till after I have reached my goal. Today's forfeit is soda - fanta, coke, pepsi, diet, everything. Anyway looking forward to my second day. I have made a list of what I want to achieve before each 5lbs loss which is a good way of getting me off my fat ass to do some work and stop sitting at home feeling sorry for myself.

Day Two

SW: 176.5lbs
