2 pounds down

  • I started counting calories monday and I'm 2 pounds down. I'm a little iffy though because that may mean that I'm losing to quickly. But I ate almost all my alotted calories. So I'm going to try not to be so negative.


    Also how do u post the weight loss ticker on the posts at the end like everone has?
  • Great job an the two pounds! Don't over analyze it, just keep going! To get the weight tracker you have to be a member for 20 days and make 20 posts.
  • Great job!! Just be thankful for the 2lbs and keep going. I think you really needed a boost like this, great for you!!
  • Congrats!

    I doubt you're losing too quickly. I always lose pretty easily and quickly the first couple of weeks before it slows down to a more realistic pace. So I wouldn't worry. Just enjoy.
  • Thanks ladies. I appreciate the feedback
  • Oh my, just enjoy the ride for now! I think I lost like 7 pounds my first week of serious calorie counting. NOW, I'm still working it and have only lost a pound in 2 weeks! Count your blessings and keep on trucking!
  • Congrats!
  • Congrats on the 2lbs! keep going!
  • Keep in mind that your weight will fluctuate during the week (I'm 2 lbs down from Monday's weight of 193 but I don't know if I will be tomorrow ... I hope it will stay in that area and spit it out for next Monday morning's official weigh-in, though!)

    On the other hand, happier to keep in mind is that while what I just wrote is true for someone months along, you may actually be losing real weight like that! You have made a huge change, after all. Just remember to stay cool if you aren't losing a pound a day 3 weeks from now, and it's all good. :-)
