It just plain sucks to get older. When you slow down so does everything
else so you have to adjust your intake of food as well or you have a
problem.

Carol you are so right - I have to also stay around 1200-1300 calories plus exercise to lose anything at this age..lol. I also read a lot about what Oprah has and that's why you see the market being flooded now with supplements taunting boost your metabolism....I'm going to have my thyroid checked next June for my annual just to make sure.

This thread is getting buried! I had trouble finding it this am.

Well I got on the scale this morning. Not too bad. It is coming off
very slowwwwwwwwwwwww but it is coming off.
I think last weight was 143.4 or something two weeks ago. This
morning I weighed in at 142.2. I'll take it. Eating so little I would think
it would melt off. No such luck. It's been 5weeks and I'm down 8lbs.
I feel good and I am getting back into slacks and jeans that were
too tight. So I'm still hanging in there.
Ok guys hope your all still doing well.
I hope you all check in this am.

That's exactally what I say to myself. I didn't lose for almost two weeks
but than another 1lb. They (whoever they are) say if it comes off slow
the chance of it coming back is less.

They really do help. Curves came out with a new cereal. I bought it
and like it better to snack on then with milk. It's really good and crunchy.
Lot's of fiber and whole grains. It was even cheaper than Smart Start.
Seems to get really soggy fast with milk. I like my cereal crunchy.

100 calories per 3/4 cup. Another nice treat.

WOW! Thanks for telling me about that. 3/4 cup for 100 calories is a nice portion size and a healthy treat. I also like crunchy not soggy.

Yay to all who are holding and losing!

I am about to have my period so I am retaining what feels like 20 gals of water.

But the scale says I haven't gained or loss.

PMS behind me, I'll go back to being extra good this week.

Doritos 100 cal packs got me through the PMS cravings last week.

I love those. Yummy.

Izzy Princess · 10-22-2007, 12:25 PM

Don't you just love all those 100 calorie packs that are out there? I like the South Beach ones since they are low in sugar and have fiber..but for a special treat I'm addicted to cheese doodles..hehehe. Oh and Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches are yummy too! Or anything Weight Watchers that are 1-2 points.

I'm at my goal weight so I'm at the hard part now with keeping it off forever....:-) Now with the holidays coming - that will be my challenge.
