Re: Anyone else start dieting today or this week?

My biggest problem is finding the time to workout. I go to Curves but I would like to get back into Yoga four days a week. That was when I was my thinnest. I put on 5 pounds over the holidays(and still worked out!!!!!) so I am really frustrated. I think I need a food diary because I really don't know what I am eating apparently! Now instead of 10 pds to lose, I have 15!

I started yesterday too! All healthy but allowed to be bad once a week and added a workout to my regime in the morning...also keep track of all calories, etc. So we shall see.

Re: Anyone else start dieting today or this week?

Got my mother to buy me a treadmill for christmas and started back on a no sugar low carb diet. I weighed 135lbs when we met 5years ago and now Im almost 200lbs(very depressing). Of course we have had 2 babies, a bad car accident and a miscarriage in the last 4 years sooooo needless to say I know how the weight got put on but Im hoping to lose atleast 50lbs within the next year. Good Luck to all of us!!

Re: Anyone else start dieting today or this week?

My FH and I (as well as the rest of the fam) started the official new years diet. With 361 days or so to go, I'm just trying to slim down a few pounds here and there.

We purchased an ellipitcal machine from NordicTrack not to long ago and I love it. Hopefully thats all I need to get the heart racing. Ellipitcal + Friends/Sex in the City = Great way to kill an hour!!!

Good luck to those trying to lose those few extra pounds...stay away from holiday cookie leftovers!!!!

Re: Anyone else start dieting today or this week?

I'm doing it also....no more snacks or chocalate. It's straight Cereal for breaksfast, slim fast for lunch and a healthy dinner. I am also doing 30-60 minutes on an exercise bike (during Dr.Phil). My FH is also doing the same so its been helpful that way.

Goal: 50 lbs in 18 months (1lb per week, but who's counting)

Re: Anyone else start dieting today or this week?

My FH and I started yesterday. We decided to make things interesting. if we get to our goals we get stuff. like if i lose 15 lbs by our best friends wedding and keep it off i get diamond earrings. and if he does the same except for losing 50 and keeping it off he gets a big screen tv that he has been wanting forever.
the hard part will be me keeping it off for our own wedding.
We are suckers for competition.

Re: Anyone else start dieting today or this week?

I think my mom and I are going to start Weight Watchers together this weekend.

I have been on it so many times. The first time it worked so well and I went back to my old ways and gained more weight. The other times I just wasn't committed. This time hopefully I will stay on for the long hall.

I promised myself when I got engaged I would start again and here I am engaged.

Also my best friend is getting married this July and I am in her wedding party. So I would like to lose weight for that too.

Re: Anyone else start dieting today or this week?

Here is a dumb question...what is a gazelle?

I gained weight too after meeting my FI...all that going out to dinner and stuff. Of course he made his own little weight loss plan and lost the weight 1-2-3!
