Any weight loss updates?

Mine was bad, then good & now really good!

Recap:
I lost about 50lb+ in 2 months, as I was dirt poor & couldn't afford to eat... that was bad, but it allowed me to drop a lot of bad weight. Then I met Chad & Andrew & lost a little more weight, then started putting some on around xmas, as I was eatting larger meals & take out.

The past month I wasn't too happy with not loosing any weight, but I wasn't gaining so thats good!

The past couple weeks, I have changed my diet for the better & I'm feeling healthier in general... The past couple months I've been hanging out with my new group of friends & they are fairly active & love walking all over downtown toronto. So I get out often. Now that the weather is warmer, I joined our company baseball team & my new group of friends like to play sports/outdoor games... We played frisbee for HOURS on sat...

I have noticed that my tummy is getting much smaller I burn energy like crazy, so loosing weight has never been a huge issue, its being active that has been.

I had to get the belt out again lol
Having my pants hanging too low at work, itsn't a good thing hehehe... They only thing I'm bumbed about is that my fav. snake ring is starting to fall off my finger I'm no longer an 8, I think I'm almost a 7 now

So how are you other ladies doing? I know there was a few of us doing the weight loss thing.

Good for you Jess! Well, I was doing pretty good and lost about 25 pounds or so and was feeling great. Then of course I got pregnant and had to change my diet, and my belly is getting bigger...but I am ok with that considering the baby has to grow haha.

Thank you

I don't think you'll have any issues loosing the baby fat (lol love that joke) once the little one is ready to come out

I really want to lose about 15 pounds but I have such a hard time staying away from my favorite thing...which is chocolate...which is so high in calories...I really want to stop eating it soo much, does anyone have any good ideas on how to discipline myself to not grab the chocolate?

[Scooter's Mom]

Kalei, when you want chocolate, try this.

Tell yourself, "I will wait 30 minutes and if I still really want the chocolate, I will get it then." I do that and usually after 30 minutes the craving has passed.

Also, I've read that it takes 3 weeks to break a habit. So if you can go 3 weeks without it, you're on a great path!

[Kalei]

Really? Thanks so much! I will try the 30 second thing, it just may work

And I forgot to congratulate you guys for your weight loss, you're all doing great

Wow!! Great idea!! I go crazy for a bit of chocolate!
I started following a 1200 calories diet, prescribed for me by a dietician. After 2 weeks I managed to get rid of 5 pounds! I am so proud and even MORE motivated now!!
