Yeah...I'm happy...and hyper.

I stepped on the scale this morning and found that I've lost 5 pounds this past week. I'll tell you, that's a seeerious self-esteem booster.

Hehe, I'm rather excited. I've been over weight since my parents took me out of public school, and I'll be going to college this fall. Eeep...5 pounds down...45-55 to go

In time...in time.

Congrats! Yep, Losing the weight is the biggest motivation ive found.

Amen to that!

Congratulations!

Congrats

Congrats!

Just don't count on 5lbs per week every week. (Pretty unsafe to lose this much this quickly, although I am sure that's a "no duh".)

aevans410 · Feb 22, 2005

You can lose that much at first, after the first month or so though, its way unhealthy.

maria_camille03 · Feb 22, 2005

*nods* Plus, the first 10 pounds or so is water, and I can gain that back quick, they way I drink it

Thanks though, for the encouragment

Congrats, but i do have a question couple months ago i started to diet and everything, i ran a mile 6 days a week and ate sorta healthy 2 months i still ate what i wanted i had chicken fingers and all with fries, and i lost around 16 pounds. Then i started to eat really healthy and aslo excercised more and lost a couple pounds here and there a total to about 20-23 pounds I WAS VERY PROUD. I now weigh 137 but i know ur all thinking i must be skinny but im not i still have my chubby belly and i dont understand why im not losing it anymore like i was im eating healthy foods i only have 1 snack a week and i excercise more, so what do u think the problem is?

Grammaton · Feb 23, 2005

yea congrats by the way, the first losses are the best, make you want to keep going.

maria_camille03 · Feb 23, 2005

Manderus- eating junk food, even though you exercise a lot, really just cancles the effect of the 'weight loss.'

Thanks Grammaton

i dont eat JUNK Food all the time so just 1 lil snack per week shouldnt mess up my weight loss plan i eat 1 snack per week to reward myself. Now that freakin shouldnt mess my excercising up so i dont understand why ur saying just eating that would mess up My "weight-loss" problem

aevans410 · Feb 23, 2005

How long has it been since you've lost any weight? From everything Ive read, the last 10 lbs you have to lose can be the most stubborn thing you've ever done in your life.

Manderus · Feb 23, 2005

What do you mean? Are you saying like if i only have to lose 10 more pounds its gonna be really freakin hard like it is right now for me trying to lose more weight?
