Well I'm a newbie here. I was told to start sorta like a journal of my journey with this weight loss thing. So here Goes! I started off at 175. Heaviest I've ever been except when I gave birth to my daughter. I am now at 163. I still hate the way I look and feel. My goal is to be 125. I think I've tried EVERY single over the counter diet pill made. Nothing has worked! I was going to order the Phen but decided to try Lipodrene first since it required no perscription or trip to the doctor, and people on Phen were using it with good results. I'm on day 3 with it, and I've lost 2 pounds. I think I am going to get the Phen and use it the way I have heard alot of people are doing by switching out every other few days or so with the Lipodrene. But at this point and time I'm just on the Lipodrene. I also take a mulit-vitamin and have been taking Tonalin CLA and Chromium Picolinate as well. And drink LOTS of water and green tea.

I am very glad to have found this site and hope to GIVE as well as RECEIVE good modivation and support. I seem to get very discouraged easily when I don't see any results. So I hope this site will help to keep me focused. Right now I'm pretty determined and excited about losing this weight. But I know it's going to be hard. Heck if it were easy I guess I wouldn't be this way!

Well Before I write a book on all this. I just want to say Hello to everyone. Looking forward to getting to know everyone. And WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!

Well today is my 4th official day on Lipodrene. I weighed this morning and I think my scales are messed up. First time it said I weighed the same, and second time it said I had lost 2 pounds. I tried again and both times it was different. I'd like to think I lost the 2 pounds! LOL But I'm going to go today and get a new scale. I feel like I did good yesterday. I'm practically having to make myself eat though. And when I do it's not alot. But I know if I do not eat the the body will say HEY YOU"RE STARVING ME and slow down metabolism, and then no weight loss. Also my friend TOM came to visit. So now I feel like a bloated cow!!!!! But I know that will pass, and just to keep drinking the water.

I had to stop by the grocery store yesterday and pick up a few things and I was proud of myself for not picking up anything that was junk food. I did however pick up snacks for the kids for after school. But made sure and got something I didn't like so I wouldn't be tempted to eat it. But honestly I've not had to much of an appetite. I know it's really time to eat when I can start to feel a slight headache coming on. Then usually it goes away. Still having a slight feeling of the jitteryness. But I think once I get past a few more days this will lessen. It could to be from my body trying to adjust to not eating so much.

Well I hope everyone has a good day today. And I will continue to write here on a daily basis. I honestly think this helps. So here's to another day of success!

Thanks Susan! Well weighed this morning and it said 160. So that's 5 pounds!!!!!! Now that the Lipodrene has been in my system for 5 days. This being day 5. I feel a whole lot better. Not so jittery and also figured out that just cause my body may not feel hungry I DO need to eat something. So today so far i feel very energized and ready to go. Ate my breakfast (a small bowl of cereal and skim-milk, and a banana). So good to go til lunch time. My kids are out of school today for some teacher conference thing, so I think it will be a good day to take them to the park and get in a little exercise myself.

Oh yeah almost forgot to mention this! I was so proud of myself yesterday for this. My kids kept begging me to order Pizza for dinner. So I gave in, and boy did it smell good!!!!!!!! I DIDN"T TOUCH NOT ONE PIECE!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah ME!!! I sent most of it to work with my husband for lunch to get it out of the house! And left a few slices for the boys if they want it for lunch today! Sure was tempting though.

Well I think once I finish off this bottle of Lipodrene I am going to start on the Phen. Depends on just how far I get with the Lipodrene. So far things are looking good. But I know things will gradually slow. This is only day 5. I think my body is still adjusting to all this. But hey I'm happy with 5 pounds. Can't yet really tell. But the scale don't lie! Atleast it's being NICE and not going up in numbers this time! LOL

Well I set my goal at 125 so this means 35 more pounds. Actually I may shoot for 120. Depends on how my body changes during the weight loss. Don't want to look to thin.

That's about it for this morning. I may write more later this evening. This really does help me with my modivation. Going to take the kids to the park for a while!

I hope everyone has a great day today!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well today has been one heck of a day for me. Definetly got the exercise in!!!!! Today was also my first day taking a full dose of my pills. I started with just a half twice a day. Then went to a full pill in the morning, and half at lunch. Well today I took a pill at breakfast, then one at lunch. Boy did the one at lunch kick in twice as much as the first one. It said to take them that way. And I took the first at 6a.m. and the second one at 12 noon. I was like the energizer bunny going around here. It was a little strange at first when I took the second one. I guess I wasn't expecting such a jolt from it. Went to the park, House got cleaned, Laundry is done. I've worked up a good sweat today needless to say!! I may have to split that second one and wait a little in between so it don't do that. Just to much to fast I guess is the way to describe it.

I ate a pretty small lunch. Just wasn't hungry. I just had about a cup of non-fat yogurt. I have been trying to eat my dinner earlier in the evenings, so I need to go and figure out something for that. I don't want to eat to late. And so far late night cravings are null and void for me since I've been on the Lipodrene. That's a PLUS!

Well I hope everyone had a good Friday!!

I guess I should say HAS a good Friday. It's not over yet!!
