Ok, where is everyone???? - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

It is wayyyyy too quiet on this board. What is everyone up to?

I have been absolutely inundated at work. I had one woman retire and another go out on disability, so I went from an office of 6 to 4 in a matter of weeks. The woman out on disability is my Payroll person, so I have to do all of her work, plus mine!

But at least it gives me very little time for snacking!

I am doing well. We went away for the weekend and I only gained 1.5 lbs, which is very little for me. I am hoping to lose those pounds plus another 3 by next Wed. That would put me at a 10 lb loss in 6 weeks. I am still very focused and committed. I am GOING to do it this time!

How goes it for the rest of you?????

Thank you so much for responding! This is my third day on this diet and it seems pretty easy! I have about 40lbs to lose. I am at 179 now, I've lost about 2lbs already. I don't know how to do the weight loss tickers so I thought I'd just post it. I really need the encouragment of others and I'd love to be able to do the same for others. In June I had a complete hysterectomy and it has been so hard to lose this weight! I'm only 29 so mentally it has been really hard for me. I go to Curves aleast 3xs a week and walk about 6miles a week. Any suggestions are very much appreciated! I do drink alot of water, about 80-100oz a day. I have been doing this for about 2weeks, I'm hoping this will help me too. Thank you again for responding, I hope we can help eachother! Jenny

Welcome Jenny!!! I think it is great to use the boards for encouragement. I find it really helps me. It has been VERY quiet on this board as of late, but maybe we can get it going again.

I am Sharon. I am 41 yrs old, work full time, have 2 kids - DD13, DS9 as well as my DH. I run around like a NUT all the time.

You will get tired just listening to me sometimes!! hehe I got away from the JC plan because I did not find alot of success for myself personally, although I have met many people on here who have done well. Just make a committment to yourself to stay on plan, whatever the plan may be. I am at 5 weeks on my reduced calorie diet and I have lost about 7 lbs so far. I am very pleased with that!

So keep up the good work, exercise and drink your water. And come here if you feel like going off plan. I often find that by typing out my feelings, I am able to resist the urge to binge/snack/cheat.....whatever.

"Talk" to you soon!
Sharon

Thank ya'll so much! I will try the general board and hopefully get to meet all of you! Sharon congrats on the seven lbs! That is wonderful! I'm not dead set on this diet but I thought I'd give it a try! I was hoping to find someone else who has had a hysterectomy and see what works for them. I'm willing to try anything at this point short of starvation!lol Hope to get to talk to ya'll more later!
