  • Day one here, day three on the diet...

    Hi! I tried this diet a long time ago and was successful. Now that my baby is almost three and I'm still carrying the weight from that pregnancy I thought it was a good time to revisit.

    I started 10/11 at 155.8 lbs. 10/12 I weighed 154.0 and this morning i was at 153.6. My goal is 118 - my pre-pregnancy weight.

    I have dropped about 20 pounds so far this year since I got serious but I think this is the boost I need to really get there and stay there. I mean, just look at those before and after pics!! You guys are so inspiring!!

    I have already started having headaches from carb-withdrawal but it's worth it! I can't wait to see where I am at the end of induction and decide if I am going to extend it.

    I'm really glad I found this forum - I'm excited to be here!

      Oooh... challenges? That sounds like my kind of fun! How do you get in on a challenge? I'm not the most "Board-savvy" person and appreciate the help!

        Awesome! Yeah, I found navigating around here confusing at first, too!


        Look for "Popular Tags" near the top of the Portal page and you'll see "challenges" ... click on that and a bunch will pop up. The Water Challenge goes from month to month and is a good one because you commit to drinking a certain amount every day; actually, all the Challenges are great 'cos you have to log in your results regularly

        If you're addicted to weighing yourself (scales are EVIL! ... if overused, anyway!) the Continuing No-Weigh Challenge is great. I've committed to not weighing myself again until Halloween, for instance.

        Anyway, just poke around and see what appeals to you ... there's something for everyone! And, if you have questions, the moderators here are fantastic and very helpful. Welcome again, and have fun!

          Welcome to the board! I hope you're feeling better today. The 'flu' doesn't last very long, thank heavens. It sounds like you're doing fine so far but if you have any question, don't hesitate to ask.

          Finding things on the board can seem confusing at first and I still have trouble sometimes but it gets easier as you check out all the links.

          Good luck and keep us posted.
