weight loss

anyone trying to lose weight before the wedding?

I want to try to lose 10 lbs which will bring me to a size 4 again.

I would like to loose a lot more than 10 lbs before my wedding. I actually started Jenny Craig about 3 weeks ago and have already lost 8 lbs, but I still have a bunch more to go....just happy to be going in the right direction!

I really is all about portion control and making smart decisions.

IT'S A REALLY REALLY REALLY STRICT DIET - it's a liquid diet. You can't have anything at all, besides the shakes given to you by your doctor. You have to meet with your doctor every week to track your progress and to get more of the powder to make the shakes. You lose approximately 6-8 pounds per week. It's honestly really hardcore and you seriously have to have the discipline not to cheat.

In each shake that you mix with 8 fl oz of water, it provides you with all the nutrients you need survive, and your body basically lives off the fat (keytones) you have stored. It's a diet of about 800-600 calories, without the fat.

Thanks for the support, it is really slow process and is sometimes hard, but it will be worth it in the end!

I want to lose 15lbs..and i have been on WW for 5 weeks now and I am down 7 lbs so 8 more to go

I lost 14.4 lbs
and FH lost 15.0 lbs
on Weight Watchers
it has been exactly 2 weeks today!

We are very dedicated.
But we have a lot to lose so that is why we are losing a large amount in the beginning.

MY FH and I are doing weight watchers and working out. We've been doing it for two weeks now. I lost 8lbs he lost 13lbs.

Its really easy....highly recommend Weight Watchers Flex Points.

Ultimate goal: 35 pounds
Realistic goal: 25
And so far, I'm down 5. I'm doing pseudo Weight Watchers point plan and heating a lot more salads. I love it!

I was flirting with the idea of Jenny Craig but I'm a really picky eater..how is the food selection?

I am a fairly picky eater, and I really like the food! They have lots of stuff to choose from and after a while you just stick to your favorites. They have everything from pizza to chicken sandwichs to cheesecake and pasta.

The other thing I like about the plan is that there is no thought involved, just pop the food in the microwave and go. No point counting etc, so it works for me!

I have been on a Diet since January- I lost about 15 lbs already-

I am only 5'1- so that is really a lot for me

I have 3 more lbs to go-

I am down to a 2 or a 4- My Dress is HUGE on me-

I have just kind of been doing a common sense diet- it was more a lifestyle change for me plus I work out 4 days a week- weights and about 45 minutes of cardio

I start 'buff brides' next month for the last 3 months before the wedding

I tend to lose motivation after a while

Also I weigh myself every week and write it down- that way no denial!
