Two days of less than targeted calories and lower sodium...back up a pound this am......

Hey everyone, just joined and figured getting involved might be a good source of motivation.

I have just restarted my last 25-30 weightless. I totally blew it in December and put back on what I'd lost in November :/ But I'm really determined this time. Going to the gym everyday and doing VLCD for a couple of weeks to get it kickstarted. Too scared to weigh myself yet; maybe next week!

:welcome2: Glad to see you here, Applesprinkles! We usually weigh in on Saturday and post our ups and hopefully downs. You'll get lots of support and encouragement. This is a great group!

:woohoo: Darius, all I can say is WOW! Great weight loss this week!

Thank you Renee: it's some kind of delayed water thing - I haven't been doing anything special.

Darius...OH MY GOODNESS!!! You are doing fabulous at losing the weight each week. Stay on it :) You will reach your goal very soon. Great job!!!

:welcome3: Applesprinkles, glad to have you join the group. We are excited to have you here and look forward to supporting each other with our diet efforts. What is VLCD? I am not familiar with that abbreviation.

Hang in there Deelou!!!

Hi Corinna, it stands for very low calorie diet, so basically, food packs. And bars! It's nice to chew occasionally. Very easy to do. No weighing or measuring. And it keeps me out of the shops. Very boring though, and I don't think it's a good way to learn about eating healthily, but it's a huge boost at the beginning:)

Thank you Corinna for the support!

Today's weigh-in shows...

:goodscale

..down 3 lbs. Yippeee!!!
I'm so happy. Now that's more like it.

However, I'm not as good as Darius :), but I am trying.
I am still moving in the right direction.

I hope there will be more positive postings this week.
Good luck my friends. I hope your hard work pays off
too for you. :crossed:

:carrot: Great weight loss, Corinna :carrot:

I'm down 1.2 lbs. this week :) We are doing wonderful!

Weighing in..... Back up, exercised three times this week, cut my myfitnesspal estimated cal intake from 1310 to 1200 was on the dime or just under every day.....!!!

I will not be posting until I see some REAL changes.
