On My Way!
 
Hello CCers!

On Tuesday, Jan 15th had started watching my calories. I am keeping my calories 2200. I am ready to change and work my darnest on efforts to stick with this. I have a large notebook and have an old picture of me at heavy..and titled "Courage2Change".

Much luck to me and to all..

Have a great one!:hug:

Good luck, Liliann! I'm sure you'll manage calorie counting wonderfully. It has worked great for me, and I'm continuing to lose at a steady rate (1 to 2 pounds a week). My food diary is a lifesaver. I stopped logging my food for a bit, and I stopped losing weight. Once you start keeping track of your calorie intake, you'll definitely start noticing a difference.

Oh Liliann, I wish you TONS of good luck.

Be strong. Stick to that plan of yours like GLUE. Like GLUE. I know how hard it is, especially in the beginning. But it does get much easier after a couple of weeks and I can't stress this enough - IT IS SOOOOO WORTH IT! The hard of staying on plan is nowhere near as hard as the hard of being morbidly obese. Keep that in mind. Self-talk is criticial. And you CAN do this. There's nothing to stop you. Go for it!!! And again - I wish you tons of good luck. :)

Liliann- Good Luck to you! You can do this! It's a great lifestyle change because you're eating the foods you like. Just keep within your calorie range, drink tons of water, and get your exercise in. I walk 30 mins a day. It's helping a bunch!!:goodluck:

It takes sooooooooooooooooo long to lose weight and it is so fast to gain it.
I wish I could simply go to sleep and wake up slim. But it takes so much patience and so much effort... In a way it's good that it takes effort, time and patience. It makes you learn a great lesson on the road. And things that we've learn with so much struggle should never be forgot.
I'm sorry if I'm a little depressing tonight, I'm a bit grumpy since I started this diet.:(
