lol...it sucks to be fat!!!

haha...well...i went back to school today after about a month and my friends say i've lost some weight...woo hoo!!!

but...i'm still not even close to the weight i was before this process began!!!!!!

did anyone ever try la weightloss??...its actually called pure weightloss now....

i did it for about 6 months and it was amaaaazing....i actually lost weight without ever working out...everrrr...haha...

but the only thing is that you have to be very strict with it...they teach you to measure your food and stuff...it works...but it is pricey..but you can put it on a credit card...they signed me up for care credit..its a "health" credit card, i guess you can call it that...

anyway..yeah..that works...but i'm too embarrassed to go back to the center now...so i'm trying to lose some weight on my own beforei go back..hehe..i started a diet yesterday...the one i posted early on.....hopefully this time i won't screw it up....i have 20 pounds to lose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway...good luck guys!!

and.."Jimmy and Angela"...wow!!! 45 pounds!!!! sounds amazing...!!! how does it work??

2300 calories? I can't even eat that when I'm not dieting. If I eat that everyday I gain weight, no doubt. My methabolism sucks.

nessa I think she's crazy but I was trying to make her leave me alone

Forgot to say that I found the Hunan Beef Lean Cuisine at Wal Mart today. Normally I don't go there but it was close. I'm going to have it for lunch tomorrow. Let you know what I think

Has anyone tried the Fiber One yogurt? I saw it last night at the grocery and wondered if it was any good.

Most US versions of yogurt are too sweet...TJ's have some pretty good ones though.

I've found Greek yogurt or plain yogurt, drizzled with a little honey, to be great. I prefer the Greek version because it's full-fat, and as a result, I can get away with eating about a half cup of it for breakfast (fewer calories) and my stomach has something to gnaw on for hours.

I love that fage yogurt too. The non-fat one is even good. I love mixing it with honey and berries.

I recently tried a full-fat yogurt (I never treat myself to full-fat) Straus Farms Goat full-fat vanilla yogurt. HEAVEN.

Good tips!

Last night I had only ate about 1300 cals and I was not hungry but I did ended up doing about 45 mins on my elliptical and my mom (she is a dr so she might be right) told me I needed to eat about 1000 calories more because of the the time I spent working out so I ate lots of whole wheat pasta with marinara and 2 pieces of garlic bread. It was still only like 700 calories more but it made her happy.

Your mom's right. If you're down to 1300 calories, your body is going to go into OMG I'M STARVING caveman mode and won't shed the weight. 2300 might be more than you need, depending on your height, but 1300 is a very severe calorie restriction.

Been doing Weight Watchers for about 6 months and lost over 40 lbs. so far. :-)

The best thing about WW is it teaches you how to balance what you're eating so, say, you can have a burger for lunch and a salad for dinner, or a salad for lunch and pizza for dinner, but not a burger for lunch and pizza for dinner. And we had a big dinner party last night and I was actually able to EAT the stuff I made. Which was delicious.
