  • Welcome and good luck on your new lifestyle journey. Have you decided on which plan you are going to follow? I have just started week 4 of SB.

    You can get a ticker when you have been a member for 20 days and have 20 posts.
  • I am not sure which one i wanna go with and i did not know there were diffrent plans out there to go by
  • Well good luck on which every one you choose. I only have experience with SB, Atkins and calorie counting.

    I am no good at counting calories and have major portion controls issues with that. Once I get a taste of something forbidden (chocolate, Mexican food or Chinese food) it was all over for the day. Way over the calorie limit.

    Atkins - I lost about 60 , but put back on 90 over the last 7 years. That was a good plan, but a little to strict for me the next go around. Once I quit it was like man overboard and I ate everything in site.

    Currently doing SB, which is little like Atkins, but not a strict. Just look at the different treads and try to find a plan that will work best for you.

  • SB = South Beach Diet. You can go on the main page under diet central. All of the diets are listed. I am not sure how to attached the links.

    As for me, I lost the weight using calorie counting...worked for me because I could eat pretty much what I wanted, but it had a limit on it, which for me was set in stone in my mind, so I rarely went over and it really got results for me. I hear you on wanting to buy regular sized clothing, clothes were (are) one of my biggest motivators...first being able to get into them, and now being able to STAY in them! I've always been large (since my pre-teen years) and being able to shop in any store is mind blowing to me, I don't know if the excitement of that will ever go away! Anyways welcome and I look forward to seeing you around!
