  • I looked at the scale this morning... and cried...

    Because upon stepping on the scale that had once said 309.5... it now said.... drum roll... 300! I wasn't supposed to weigh myself until tomorrow... but I did any way! YES! I lost 9.5 lbs in 6 days! I'm so happy that I started crying... I even called my Dad at work to tell him... and he was soooo proud of me! I'm so happy and energetic! I need to go do my crunches and drink my water! YAY! This already starting out to be the best year ever!

    I know that feeling so well. Although it was a long time ago, I can sure empathise with you.

    I am really pleased that it has happened to you also, keep up the fantastic work.

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

                I can't wait to hit under 300! I haven't been under 300 in months... I love the wooshie faerie! I was on fitday... and I set a long term goal... I want to be under 200 by my birthday... July 27... and it said I only have to lose 3.5 pounds a week and I will be at my goal! If things keep going the way they are maybe I'll be able to fit in those 18's for my b-day! Hehehehe

                  weigh to go As an ex 300+ pounder I know the excitement and thrill you are getting losing and about to become a 200+ pouder. I know it sounds so much nicer then a 299er.

                            You see how easy it is! I too lost big amounts on Induction (15.4 lbs first week and 8.8 lbs second week) and it will really keep you motivated. You think back and think 'if I can do that I can do ANYTHING!'. Keep up the good work!
