Yes I have been on a regime for the past few weeks.

My goal is to lose 20 lbs by May. But I can't say no to CARBS!

Diets always start on a Monday and end on a Tuesday anyway.... lol.

I want to lose 20 pounds by March...eventually losing 40 altogether..

I've started exercising 4 times a week about a month ago and gained 3 pounds, I am so frustrated that my clothes don't fit as they used to, and am trying really hard. I also can't say no to Carbs, I need to lose about 10-15 pounds.

I need to lose alot. Nearly one year ago my doctor told me ...lose weight...lower cholesterol...lower blood pressure...or else! I actively started trying to lose weight....cardio 4 times a week, cut refined foods almost completely (but not carbs)...in six months I lowered my bad cholesterol by about 20 points! My triglycerides plummeted, and my blood pressure came down to normal. BUT..I had lost NO weight....I still have not lost any weight. I suspect...it's those bloody CARBS! and CALORIES! I just get so hungry! It's frustrating.

...if you've done so much and still haven't lost any weight, you should try and get a blood test done to make sure everything's fine with your thyroid....

i actually got checked about 2 months ago, but i never called the doctor back to get the results.. i just got caught up with school and all this paperwork and i kept giving myself the excuse taht i'm not losing weight because i'm depressed and its affecting me whether i know it or not....

good luck!! we should try posting some good diets that reallyyy work...i have one.....actually, its on my desktop..hehe...this actually works!! but don't stay on it for longer than a month...and weigh your self every 2 weeks...

try the diet i posted...you'll never be hungry...actually, when you're on a diet where you're starving yourself, you're just slowing down your metabolism...so it'll be easier to gain weight once you're off the diet...the best thing to do is to eat something every couple of hours so your metabolism is working around the clock...when you don't eat for long periods of time, your body goes into starvation mode and then when you finally eat, instead of burning it off, your body stores it, thinking.."..who knows when i'll see food again??" ....

good luck everyone!!

..i'm guessing that's for a thyroid problem.. ...i heard that it actually helps you eventually and it makes it easier for you to lose weight in the long run...but i'm not sure...i wish you all the best!!! whatever you do, don't give up!!

I'm in. I am doing Weight Watchers and love it. I can eat anything I want as long as I stay within my point range. Thank god I have a lot of points right now. haha

I tried WW but I ended up thinking about food constantly. I did lose weight but I think it had more to do with the exercise I was doing than anything else. Especially since I spent most of my time figuring out low point dessert recipes...
