So exactly 4 weeks ago today i started calorie counting. I completely cut out all soda and white bread. Which were my 2 fav things. I didnt plan on cutting them out completely but i found walmarts version of flavored water with 0 cals, 0 sugar, 0 cabs, 0 sodium. and its slightly carbonated. its yummy. And If found that the wheat sandwich things from arnolds are delicious. 100 cals for 1.

My meals consist of eggs, whole wheat foods, lean meats, and lots of veggies. I have completely changed my eating habits. I eat every 2.5-3 hrs and drink lots of water. I NEVER thought Id be able to do this. I would like to lose 100 lbs total by july 11th which would be exactly one year with a healthy lose of 2 lbs a week. I will then lower my goal to 140 for a total of 149.8 lbs. I have never been that little. I just started walking a little at night for a little longer and then will take on a fun exercise. Not sure what thatll be. I just wanted to post a thank you to all you wonderful ladies for your help and look forward to my journey!!!!!!

Congratulations ! Great job.

Congratulations on a great start -- 16 pounds in 4 weeks is a blistering pace. Be prepared for the rate of weight loss to slow down a bit as you proceed. It does for all of us.
