I started writing down my food intake and my activity for each day, and it seems to give me and idea on what I'm doing. It seems to be going quite well..
It seems I've been going in the right direction and next week when I go back and see my doctor I will see how if it's good or bad news... wish me luck with that.. but I really don't have much faith with the scale thing. I go by the way my clothes fit me now..
I've been trying to keep a positive attitude with this weight thing and that's all I can do... Also I"m going to cut down on my exercise regime because I can feel it now on my legs.. and that's the reason I have to see the doctor next week.
I'm trying to focus on my foods that I eat now and watch my portions that I eat, and try to eat smaller meals each day...
Just going to keep positive and pray for the best.. Aha sweetie your a youngin compared to me my birthday is this month and it will be the Big One for me!! "60"..
Will keep you posted on how I did after my doctor's visit..
Thanks,View Thread


I was so excited I went back today and it felt great.. but still have to take it easy.. Just staying home this first week alone I gained 5 lbs. so I needed to get back. Oh and I had my thyroids checked and all is well with them, thank goodness. But now I'm trying to eat more protein, less carbs, more veggies, and watch my fats.. It's only my first day doing this, but they say it takes little changes and it will work instead of over doing it all at once, which causes you to fail.. Believe me I've been on every diet that is out there, so my mind is set on trying to eat right and keep on exercising and I hope it all clicks and starts to work for me.. Wish me luck and I wish you the same with your weight loss adventures!! Oh and I'm trying desperately to write down in my Web journal all that I've eating every day.. which they also say it's good so you can keep a track of it..

I'm not going to let this get me down. I'm going to start nice and fresh on Monday morning and keep and eye on my food intake. I need to lose at least 45 lbs to reach my goal, but like they say "slow and steady wins the race". Wish me luck once again, and I hope that I can count on you as I go through my weight lose journey and achieve it with the help of my Community buddies on Web MD....

I didn't make it to the gym yesterday and that was okay, I do deserve a day off, but I know that I'm going today and going to work a little bit longer and harder to make up for yesterday. As long as I keep my mind set this positive things will click and it will work for me!! It's like a smoker, it has to be mind over matter to quit smoking, you have to want to quit otherwise it's not going to happen.
The same concept goes with losing weight!! Have a great day and thanks for listening.

Everyone that I've talked to has told me that I should go by the way my clothes fit, and not obsess with the numbers on the scale. Is this true? and they also said that it takes time to see results maybe in a month or maybe even in two months time. So I'm going to be patience and lose it slowly and I hope everything kicks in real soon. This discussion board has also helped me to vent my feelings and also shows me that I'm not the only one going through these frustrations. But I'm going to do it this time!! Just need to keep focused on my goals!!! and I will achieve it in time. As said before "One day at a time" and "Slow and steady win the race". Have a night and thanks for listening!!!!

Yes this information came from my Food & Fitness Planner. I was surprised that it increased that much. But I'm going to stay with the calorie intake that I've been using, and I'm going to keep working out twice a day!!
I don't think I lost any weight this week due to the fact that I've eaten frozen peanut butter yogurt twice this week. I'm going to weigh myself tonight. Will let you know how I did later when I get back from swimming.
Wish me luck!!
