Oh no. The diet chats are starting. I'm going to enjoy the rest of christmas vacation and then plan to start Monday. After all this binging, Monday is going to be really tough

Now I'll have to lose not only the weight I initially wanted but all those lbs I just packed on from all the baking and good (bad for you) food I've been making the last two weeks

Good luck to all!

Count me in too.... I need to lose 10-15 pounds but really need to firm up... My brother is getting married soon and so is my husbands brother!

I need to look good :-)

My downfall is junk food and ice cream ... I have really taken a liking to smoothies. I just need to go buy the stuff to make them. I will have one for breakfast and one for lunch and eat small snacks and a healthy dinner. But I need to walk/run... but here in NY it is so darn cold!

Oh man....sugar withdrawal is awful! Have you ever tried Kashi GoLean? I love that cereal and LIVE on it! Such a great carb and full of fiber and protein....great for long-term good carbs. I find eating "crunchy" stuff sometimes helps when I'm super "crave-y" too - like munching a few petite pickles or baby carrots...I don't why that helps sometimes?

Oh man. Monday is here. This means I'm joining you all and starting me diet too. I need to lose like 20lbs. I'm going to try and limit my sugar and limit my portions......and somehow get myself to exercise :-(
This seemed so much easier to do 10 years ago

I'm in gals! I started yesterday and it hasn't been too hard yet - but I am sitting here hungry (not bad though). I do WW and need to lose 20 pounds, but I'd be happy with 15!

Good luck to everyone!

Pam Campbell · 01-04-2010, 07:31 PM

I started a diet LAST year and lost 45 pounds! Cut out sugar, switched to diet pop, low calorie, and low fat. After the first 30 pounds I started exercising. Rode a bike for 10 miles a day. Pleased that I have kept it off -even through the holidays-since I haven't rode the bike since fall! Can't wait for spring!

I am also on WW. I really do not mind it....in fact, I wanted to write that I love it but that would sound odd to some.

But I really do love the program and how it has taught me a lifestyle. I have had great success on it because it doesn't make you give anything up....just teaches you a new way.

Good luck with your loss!

So I started today. it really wasn't that bad. I'm not feeling a withdrawl from anything. Unfortunately my dad (in all of his wisdom) brought home pudding and those little bread stick/cheese packets last night. my two weaknesses! I've decided that I can have the pudding but only twice a week. I'm just going to ignore the cheese/stick things.

Other than that, not too much of a problem here. I drink diet soda (regular soda tastes like battery acid to me), but I mostly just drink water anyway. My problem is breakfast foods and dinner. Right now my schedule is a little bit crazy because I have play practice every night from now-March, and work and school on top of that. So I'm kind of eating crappy dinner. but I think I can mostly balance that out with all the dancing I'm doing. and I don't eat breakfast. It's a bother to me. I know they say that it's harder to lose weight if you don't eat breakfast, so I'm going to try doing that. The biggest problem that I deal with is portion sizes and my laziness. I really just need to eat less and get off my butt and I'll be good to go!

One day at a time!

Cheller_ · 01-04-2010, 11:20 PM

I need to. I also need to start eating my 5-6 small meals a day. I realized when I attempted it before that I don't really eat alot. And I think the reason behind my weight is because my body is in starvation mode.
I really need to use my gym membership, but I don't want to flood the gym with the masses.
