Good Morning fellow beaders:
Wanted to get my voice in before I started to work today. Had a great day yesterday, it was veggie day as well as today. I feel that my cravings are gone. I did not have on single craving and stayed on target. Maybe it was because I gave in to my desire to have an illegal food on Sat. Kerrioh68 I could not agree with you more, I did weight watchers and after 6 months only lost 4lbs. Durning that time I went up and down, down and up. And there was Jenny Craig, three months and lost 7lbs. Lets not forget Atkins, 4 months and lost 12lbs. Nutri System, could not eat the food due to so much soy. one month on that and lost nothing. I could go on and on but I promised not to ramble. I never knew I had such will power and self control until AW.
Thank God for AW. I am already buying clothes in the size I desire to be just as an extra incentive. My new slogan is Yes I Can, Yes I Will and Yes I Did.
It is not that those diets don't work. Once I get off the weight I want I am going back to my exercise and calorie counting. Just would like to try it to keep off the weight not get off the weight.
Can't wait until 12. I am hungry... (milk day 1).

Hey everyone! Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. Last week wasnt too good for me. I cheated a few times and gained .1 pounds . Once you cheat it is so hard to get back on program. I started Friday with a perfect week and am excited to weigh in. Hope everyone has a cheat free day!
Maria, I am also on a milk day. I just made some chocolate milk with the Walden's Farms Syrup. I was thinking of having some yogurt later? Anyone have any suggestions of how to flavor the yogurt besides adding the chocolate.

I used smuckers sugar free jam in mine. U can use vanilla extract or any extract and splenda.
the official afternoon weigh in ws 7.5.... I will take it.. My last veggie day and on to Milk tomorrow.. which hopefully will give me some good results LOL.
Saturday was tough for me I wanted to quit.
Congratulations on the weight loss!!!
Sorry been busy the past few days but still here. I always hate getting weighed after veggie days and the afternoons suck also that's why I weigh mornings after 2nd milk day. Just for the motivation to keep going.
I had a bite of a taco yesterday and two potato chips... I do so well then all of the sudden i have a bite.
I also went to bed at 930 and then the phone woke me up at 10. I tried to stay asleep as late as possible. I am eating yogurt now. Waited until 1230 so I can go a little later (mine is a little different). I just hate having a good day and cheating with a bite. It stinks.
Well at least you have food today. Stay strong. ITS Temporary if we succeed.
I'm like you. The day goes absolutely perfect then around dinner I have a bite of something. They told me to have jello but it seems that's never as appealing as the food! We need to stop this if we're going to make it to goal. Even the smallest lick can effect the week's loss
Hello all .. its been a while since I checked in I guess its been a few weeks and already it jumped an additional 10 pages of dialogue - how exciting. Okay confession time. Update - as you know I went back on program on 3/13 after a 4 month break (Nov-Mar) - which while on break I maintained my loss and only fluctated 3-5lbs which wasn't significant. So my lost for Phase 1 this go around was again a 13lb loss. Phase 2 began on 3/26 which was tightening..boy did I totally bomb...I was doing so well the first 6 days..I was losing and then i went haywacky and ate everything that was nailed down!! why did I sabotage myself the last 3 days - so I went in for Phase 3 (4/6) and weighed in and was back up 5lbs and 1 inch. Boy did I get a lecture. Ok so I am back on schedule and I am down 6lbs from last wednesday evening...which is a good thing I am going back in the right direction losing what I ate which was probably sodium. It doesn't pay to sabotage yourself..wasted money and wasted time. This program is tough and WILLPOWER is essential. I was able to forego eating burgers and pumpkin pie at a friend's house this weekend and just had my water bc it was after 6pm. So it can be done - but you got to want it. I figure between now and June 30 - I need to drop these last 40lbs and I cannot sabotage myself any longer. This is the first program that has truly worked for me. Weightwatchers gives you too much food!! So glad we have so many on board. I need to report in daily for motivation and encouragement. Keep up the good work gals..and manwithbeads..is definite motivation that this can be done..I plan to have that same success bc I intend to fight for it!!
Good luck! This is the only plan that worked for me as well, and so fast. We're all fighting together
Day 2 of the milk.. Will weigh myself tomorrow morning...
I am excited to try miracle noodles on my vegetable day tomorrow. Can't decide how to cook them. I think with tomatoes, some squash, onion and garlic.. .I hope I like them.
I am really interested in this. Can anyone share the actual eating plan? (If it's already here and I just overlooked.. sorry! I did look before asking, though ) -- and for those who do the diet from a distance, how do you know exactly where to place the beads?
