  • Hi All!

    Hi Everyone!

    I'm very excited becasue I started induction last week and already lost 10 lbs! I just had a baby 4 weeks ago and am trying to lose the 60 lbs I gained during the pregnancy plus another 30 which I was trying to lose before I got pregnant.

    I'm dedicated to continue to succeed and hope to lose the first 60 lbs in 9 months. Hey, I figured it took me 9 months to gain it so it should take me about 9 months to lose it.

    I hope that's a reasonable time frame. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    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!

          Welcome aboard Mela and congrats on the ten pounds already gone. That is wonderful. It won't be long until another ten is gone and so on. This way of eating is great and I think you will love it.
