Help...I need a kick start!
Hello all! I am looking for some help and advice.
First let me say I have successfully lost weight, so I am not looking for a miracle cure as I already know your own hard work and dedication is the best cure and most successful results. Let me tell you my story.
I lost 113 lbs in less than a year through diet and excercise alone...I learned portion control, counting calories and extreme self control. I was at my lowest weight 2 years ago. I got pregnant and packed on about 50 lbs...ok I can live with that, I knew what it would take to get it off again...well through lifes changes I haven't been so successful...bottom line, I hadn't given it my all until about 6 months ago. I was still 35 lbs heavier than my lowest weight. I went back to counting calories and was doing Zumba 3 days a week. I lost 16 lbs and felt sooo good! Then came the Holidays and more of lifes facinating events...currently of those 16 lbs I have gained 6 back...with each lb I gain I know exactly what I am doing. I am in the best relationship of my life and I am happy. I'm fat and happy...BAD combination! So as I continue to get comfortable in my relationship, I cringe when the scale goes up...I have to lose 25 lbs for myself. I'm not trying to get skinny by any means, it would take 50 lbs or more for that...I just want to be comfortable with myself like I was.
For me, it takes 2 weeks to set the pattern of not caving to eating what I know I shouldn't...energy is not an issue for me, as I am back to Zumba 3 days a week. Appetite is my biggest problem right now.
I am looking for some advice from users who have successfully tried an over the counter diet pill that supressed their appetite...I am not trying to find a pill that will do it all as I know none exists. I just need something that will help me not crave the things I shouldn't be eating. After my initial successful 2 weeks fingers are crossed that I will be back on the right track...has anyone found positive results on OTC supplements?
