Lost 6 lbs without starving myself!! - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Everytime where I lost that amount of weight (6 lbs in one week) I'd have to really starve myself (under 900 cals). This time it's been three weeks since I weighed my self and I've been eating (1,200-1500 cals) and I've dropped 6 lbs and I don't feel moody or depressed becuase I didn't starve myself. Now I know I can lose weight without having to go hungry. I never did it the healthy way before so it's a big accomplishment for me!!

Congrats, but at your weight, I think you could be losing 1-2 lbs. a week and be at goal in no time.

GREAT JOB!!!! Six pounds puts you 1/4 of the way to your goal - so fantastic!!! It is pretty amazing when you discover you don't have to starve to lose weight. I sometimes feel guilty if I'm not hungry 'enough', like I'm not trying hard enough or something, or that I simply won't lose weight without really feeling deprived. But I havn't felt truly 'starved' or 'deprived' at all this time around and I've been losing. I think we finally found the secret!!! Hooray for us!
