I am down another 5 pounds~

**Karin_texas** · 11-17-2005, 08:37 PM

I can't believe how better I feel now. I actually wear an 8-10 now! I can wear SINGLE numbers again! It's been 6 years since I was in an 8! I started at 157 and today I got on the scale and it said 132. I am only 5 feet tall, so I would like to get down to 117-120. It's so close I can see it right there in front of me.

How is everyone else doing? :-o

oops, I started at 167 not 157! I was in a size 16 too! I can't believe how HUGE I let myself get! That's three children in 6 years! I just had to put a stop to it!

It will come off in time...just be patient and eat properly....I lost before, but I developed breast cancer all the meds added extra weight and now I am having a hard time getting rid of excess weight

Hi, Tiff~ DON'T GIVE UP!! Your replies are so RIGHT! Please check and see whether you are doing these things daily:

1. Read Ian Mason's writings. Extremely knowledgeable and our site administrator.
2. Read Ian Robertson's articles. He is also extremely savvy and a personal trainer available online for free to the members of The Weight Loss Club.
3. Determine now to write down every bite or drink you take in.
4. Count your calories. Do NOT go under 1,000 calories a day. If you do, you will throw your system into starvation mode and it will hold on to every pound you have.
5. Eat breakfast.
6. Try to eat about 200 calories every 2-3 hours and EVERY time you eat make sure you have a protein~meat, fish, skim milk, fat-free ice cream, cottage cheese and yogurts, nuts, beans, etc.
7. Add loads of vegetables of different types (lesser on the Sweet Peas, corn and strachy vegetables). No white potatoes, rice or anything less than whole grains.
8. Drink at least 100 ounces of plain old water every single day.
9. Do some form of exercising every day, even if all you can do is 5 minutes.
10. Post here EVERY day...it makes you accountable to someone, which is a HUGE help.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
