I'm in as well -- I just finished TO and hope to have my first loss in 6 weeks on the scale. I have to keep remembering that I feel better, more fit, but the scale doesnt like the weight training I do -- but it makes me feel sooo much better / tighter.

I'm also gain on the two POP days -- and journaling.

Eryca1123- Welcome to the family!!! 10 lbs. in a month is wonderful. woohoo!!

How's everyone doing? It's finally june 1st. I hope everyone is POP!! So far, so good for me :)

POP for me today! Wahoo! It helps not having any more of that dad-ratted cake in the house....

Count me in, too. I was POP today.
I weighed 169 (with no clothes) on my home scale this morning and I really want to weigh 159 by July 4th! I was thrilled to be in the 160's but now I'm looking forward to see the 150's. I'm excited to weigh in tomorrow and see how much I've lost in these past 10 weeks. I am supposed to get my measurements tomorrow so I'll post that tomorrow night.

Friday, June 2nd--At my weigh in this morning I weighed 170.2. That now makes 25 pounds gone in 10 weeks. I've lost 1 more inch in my waist, went up an inch in my hips (what the...?), and lost half an inch in my thigh.

Just blew it with some crackers - I had a terrible case of the munchies.

A ? I have for the center tomorrow (I'm praying for some type of loss) is, can we have the 100calorie snacks? instead of counting out the graham crackers, Ive been having one package of the 100 calorie graham crackers ... I also want to ask about the skinny cow treats .. .

They told me last week a margaritta was a starch .. who knew lol ..

Today I was POP .. yeahhhhh .. but I've been in a training class all week and can easily drink my water + more .. I soo hope for a (-) on the scale tomorrow!

I'm in gals. I've been POP since Tuesday - even resisted my DS with the Girl Scout thin mints straight from the freezer last night. AAAGGHHH!!! I started TO this morning - not looking forward to it, as I'm afraid I'm going to be famished by the time I go to bed tonight.

But, I have a wedding over the 4th of July and would like to be down another 10 by then. Remember (and we all know it's true!!), nothing tastes as good as being thin feels. I've been repeating it every day...

I am taking the info on the 100 calorie packs into my center today to find out what they count as. I will post when I get back. Also I am taking in the info on fudgicle sugar free fat free fudge bars. My councellor said they might just count as a condiment. I will confirm this and let you know. I didn't getthe info on the skinny cow treats though. Have a POp day everyone.

They will probably tell you no on the 100cal packs-but I would say it's okay a couple of times a week as long as it is your only "high-cal" starch for the day. The rest of your starches should be around 50cals. Then again-if you stall in your weight loss-you may want to stop eating them. The real problem would likely be with the salty snack ones of course . . .

I want to see the 140's by July 4th. I think that is pretty feasible.

Hey all! Count me in....I have to break this stupid plateau I am on. I have been doing a lot of research online when I can and found a little info that I am trying. Been doing it two days and I must say it has helped my appetite so much...much much easier to stay on plan...in fact sometime I have to force myself to eat...it really helped with the take off too.

Good Luck all!

MrsBeanie,
What are you trying that's helping with that appetite? That's always my biggest issue - being really hungry...

Share with us, Beanie! What are you trying?

I've written the 100 cal snacks in my diary a couple of times, and they don't really say much.... but it seems like every time I ask them about a food in particular that ISN'T in the book, they say "Not during the weight loss phase" http://www.geocities.com/fire_godess_e35/taz.gif

Most of them (100 cal snacks) are similar in nutrient value to the la snacks like the garlic twists, etc... I know nutrient value isn't everything, it has to do some with what the ingredients are as well, but the garlic twists are 100 calories and they count as a starch.

I will be happy to share but I wanted to wait a week or so to see if it is really that or just someother strange reason Im not hungry. I promise once Im sure thats what it is I will report back. ;)
