Hi all. Sorry I haven't been posting. Since we got home, I haven't been feeling the best. Most of the time I am sleeping. I've only made it to the Y once this week, and when I came home I felt terrible. Hopefully this rainy cool weather will be gone soon, and I'll feel better.

Lilly, sorry to hear that you had the flu. It always takes alot out of a person. Good for you for getting to the gym! I totally cracked up about the McFlurries! I can relate to those!!! lol

Still, you are still doing great!

Thanks! I am thrilled.

Tammy, I am just counting calories again! That is how I lost the first 60lbs 2 years ago! That seems to work well for me.

Tammy 05-16-2008 08:00 PM

Lilly, I don't have cake very often, so when I have a piece I always enjoy every bite. We had a nice day today. sunshine!! Still a bit cool though. I haven't played volleyball in years!

Still, I guess I need to start my calorie journaling again and stick to it this time. I'm no longer even bothering with the alli. I kept forgetting to take it!
With the classes that I'm taking at the Y, I should be losing some weight sometime. I do know that my clothes are fitting better even if the scales haven't changed.

hi
 
Hi all.
I am wondering if I should try Alli and have been wondering for about 2 months now, lol. I had a baby last year and since then I have not been able to get back down with my weight. I am topping now at almost what I was when I gave birth to him and nothing seems to be working for me. I have tried cutting calories (counting), done Curves, done south beach etc and no matter what I do not budge on the scale!! I just started to go to the gym 5 times a week and lost like 7lbs in a month but I feel like I need an extra boost. I need to lose 50lbs to get to my goal weight of 160lbs. Have you guys seen a difference using Alli? And what is the difference between Alli and the prescription drug Xenical?

Thanks in advance,

Tammy 05-19-2008 07:18 AM

Hello Icechick! When I started alli last summer, I did see a difference using it. It won't hurt to give it a try!! It sounds like you have tried lots of things to lost weight, so maybe the extra boost will help you. Xenical is stronger than alli, and it is just by prescription I think. Good luck!!

I'm headed for the Y this morning. Honestly, I would rather still be asleep, but if I do that, I'll never get any more weight off!!! lol

Have a great week everyone!! Sure hope everyone starts posting again!!!
Shy, where are you????

StillTryin 05-20-2008 09:43 AM

Tammy, I think Shy and I have been hangin out in the Calorie Counters area lately. That is where I find her. I havnt taken alli for 9 months or better but I am still doing good.

It works, but only if you can really watch your fat grams. Since taking it I have switched to LOW fat eating so there is no reason for me to take it.

Tammy 05-20-2008 12:14 PM

Still, I've been doing the calorie counting thing too! I am also eating lower fat now. 9 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are so darn close!!!!! Woo hoo!!!
