Hi Vanessa, thank you for posting. You and I are in the EXACT same boat. I also want to get down to 165 at the highest but ultimate goal is 155 and I currently weigh 179. That is quite a considence. I too can eat anything. It is so hard being this far out and able to eat anything. I am just literally taking it one day at a time. Thanks for shairng

Hola!! Dear I will do it like you. one day at a time. I need to get back to up my protein and get down the carbs and snack. ON march 31 here in Germany is the ARMY Logistic Ball and we are going, This will be my 1st time in a formal dress and I really want to get at least to 170 before the dance. I am going to start here a log every day . Food intake and moving to loose , I need the motivation. Take care sweetheart Hugs from Germany Vanessa

Wow, how exciting to go to a fancy ball and get all dolled up. I wish we had an event like that where I live. You can do I know you can. I just started doing fitday.com again today. I am going back to all the things I did at the beginning to get me at goal. I remember once I started doing fitday the weight flew off. So thats what I am doing again. Like you said. One day at a time. Good luck and hugs

greetings 1) starting weight - 463 2) lowest weight - 187 3) current weight - 187 4) how many ounces can you eat - around 10 -- depends on what it is 5) apprx calorie intake - don't know, don't count them 6) how much do you excercise - not much - try to walk some every day 7) how much water a day - 50-60 oz., plus lots of coffee 8) anything you still can't eat - i'm not adventurous with food. still stay away from sugars and breads 9) Back to old habits - no, but the temptation to eat when stressed is always there 10) Are you still trying to lose, if so how much - want to lose 13 lbs as that would get me to the NORMAL range in bmi

Aloha Deb, thanks for sharing in the poll. Looks like you were able to maintain your lowest weight too. That is great. It seems we are all doing about the same which is wonderful. Most of us struggle with the excercise thing as well which is comforting that I am not alone. My first year I was so diligent. Thanks again for sharing and best of luck to you on your last 13 pounds. Hugs
