    60 pounds gone forever!!

    I have gone from 225 to 165 in 5 months. If I can do this, ANYBODY can do this!

    I was an emotional over eater and binger.
    Don't give up!!

    somewhere between 15lbs and 25 lbs to go. I'm going to see how I look at 150 and decide if I want to hit 140. At 5'8 with a shapely figure that might be too thin. We'll see...

    That's an average of a 12-pound per month loss! Amazing!

    I'll just sit here and be happy for you and try not to remember I can't seem to lose more than about 5 pounds per month.

    Seriously, thoough ... CONGRATULATIONS YOU!

    Give us the details of how you did this, pretty please?

      I have to admit that the weight loss has slowed to about 5-7 pounds a month the last 2 months or so. The first chunk came in the very beginning.

      Not too many details. Just followed the diet with no "franken foods (processed foods)" and little to no soda(diet).

      I also did lots of working out and 3-4 mile walks at least 5 times a week.

        Wow on that weight loss in that short period of time. Sounds like you did things the right way and all that exercise looks like it really helped.

        Thanks for the inspiration to a chubby newbie.
