Default Hello

I just wanted to stop in and say hi. Im on my second day of the express phase and Im dying. I cant wait till tomorrow. Im trying real hard to commit to this this time. My 30th birthday is July 2nd. My husband is taking me to Cape Cod for a week. So Im hoping to lose all my weight by then. I know its alot to ask for so if I can get at least most of it off I will be happy. Well Im looking forward to talking to all of you. This is a great board and im happy I stumbled across it.

Kayla

Question

Thanks for the Welcome....I am happy to be here. This is it for me! I have to be down by my birthday July 12. I have a real struggle with water. I love water but I have a hard time drinking more that 3 bottles. I am sure this is what is holding up my weightloss because I eat very well. What do you guys think?

Also, if you don't mind me asking, what was your biggest obstacle(s)?

Water is definetely a key, as we need it to flush our systems every day.. The other key is salt, I believe... Unfortunately for you gals who already retain a lot of water, the high sodium content in the foods we eat just makes it worse. That water the plan calls for helps us balance that out.

The biggest obstacle for me at first was mentally wrapping my mind around the concept that I had to eat more to lose weight.. And then the obstacle has consistantly been saying "no" to french fries...
