psycho-hope

hi all, just thought i would pop in say hi, ive the guts of 120pounds to lose over the next 2 years or so. My big goal this year is to loose a pound a week until the 6th of june when my aunt is 50 so there will be a big family party then.

Ive a dairy intolerence so my diet is fairly restrictive, tho on the plus side it means no more ready meals or pizzas and chocolate my big weaknesses

Ill try and pop in each day if i can

Hellz yeah! Welcome aboard, psycho-hope! I personally love this thread and the Weekly Motivational thread! I hope that you find plenty of support here! How on earth do you avoid the chocolate?! I try to ration myself to only one of those "Dove Dark Chocolate Promises" pieces per day, and even that is hard!

hey guys an update from me.

i'm going to start drinking 3 of my water bottles a day which is about 3 cups of water it can hold.

and i'm going to cut back on how much i eat by a few servings. following the food guide is good for mantining your weight or starting to cut back, but at the point i'm at now i feel like i'm eating WAY too much with keeping up with the right amount of servings. so i'm going to cut back on my grains by 1-2, fruits and veggies i'll keep to 7 servings but won't try to fill the servings with juice if i'm lacking 1-2.

i'm fine with my milk of 2 servings, and for my meat i got to stay at my 2 (i tend to go over by one alot)

yesterday i didn't eat all my servings but drank alot of water so i wasn't hungry all day. and this morning i had a good breakfast abit bigger than usual snice a bigger breakfast is better than a bigger supper.

also my computer is down for the count so i can't check back as often for awhile snice i'm using my school computers.

see you guys later

I am enjoying the food and activity logs. It really makes me think about what I am eating more so than any other weight loss tool I have used and it is free unlike Weight Watchers. I have already lost a pound and I feel great. I think I can keep up with this.

Hi, I would love to do this with you ... though I do not need to lose 50 pounds, I need to learn to be patient and be happy losing one pound a week. I am so haphazard with my eating and would like to have to check in to keep me inline. I would love to keep in touch through fitday to do this.

mhibdon

Oh I feel you, JustG45! Somedays, especially Wednesday, I'm on my feet and on the go from 7AM - 11PM, and last night 2AM!

I've found that being able to keep snacks on my and to create a "meal plan" in the morning allows me to regulate everything and keep my calories on track!

I'd love to hear how everyone is doing!
