Congratulations Maritza !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds like everyone is doing well. Good luck with your wedding plans, how exciting. Best wishes, Carol

Maritza that is excellent!*!*!*!*! Congrats! Bet by Summer you'll be at goal! Patti, in MI

I am proud to say that at 6months and a push out, I have reached the century club!!! Only 50 more pounds to go to goal. I have lost 68% of my excess weight. Yeah me!!!!!!

Congratulations! I still have a way to go to be at goal but I would imagine that once your calories/activities are in balance you will stop losing when you want to. If you have problems, consult your nutritionist for strategies to stop losing when you have reached goal.

Jamie, I know it is frustrating when the weight is not coming off as fast as you would like. Look at how far you have come---you have already lost more than 1/2 of your excess weight in 7 months. Plateaus are inevitable; they happen on any weight loss program. Your body needs time to catch up to what you have already lost. Don't despair. Follow the basic rules: 64 oz water daily, 50-60 grams of protein daily, exercise regularly. Stay off the scales and only weigh once a week. Take your measurements once a month to see if you are losing inches even though the scale may not be moving. Make sure you are getting enough calories every day so your body does not go into starvation mode and hang on to the excess fat. If in doubt about how much you should be eating, consult your nutritionist.
