This week I gave up...

Drinks with more then 5 calories! Good bye dr pepper and coke Each week I am going to make one lifestyle change to hopefully lose 50 lbs by the wedding. I can do it!! I need all the support i can get.

You can do it! Another tip and a lot of people don't like it. Not sure if you are a coffee drinker but put skim milk instead of regular milk. It takes a little time to get use to but every little calorie helps.

good luck!! I´m restarting my diet on Thursday with FH. He´s doing something our nutritionist had suggested a while back. (the gym we used to go to gave us a free nutritionist on site!!)

You do two weeks straight of a really strict diet. (basically just lean proteins and green veggies for lunch and dinner and you can have fruits or bread with your breakfast) It´s hard but since you know it´ll be over soon it´s doable and you can eat as much meat and/or veggies as you want if you are also excercising at least 3 times a week. Then you start adding things on every week. For instance brown rice, whole wheat bread, other veggies, low fat dairy, whole wheat pasta etc. Until you get to a 'normal' diet which he recommends not eating starches for dinner (its easier here, in Ecuador, because the big meal is lunch time) and trying to eat healthy during the week and choose one day in the weekend to 'cheat'.

I am considering either doing that or the Denise Austin diet online. Its basically just control calories while you´re trying to loose weight but also encourages you to eat healthy. The right amount of water/dairy/fruits and veggies/carbs etc per day. She has menu plans and excercise plans as well for people like me who need them!! I like this because I can cheat every now and then and as long as I take into consideration the calories i´m ok.

Good Luck!!! and your damn right, you CAN DO IT!!

good for you! i rejoined weight watchers and am already down 6lbs!! just make sensible choices..you can still eat, just choose wisely :)
