My starting weight was 344 pounds. I have lost 135 pounds in 7 months. I am not at goal. I would like to lose 60 more pounds. I drink at least 60-90 oz of fluid every day (that includes any non-caloric beverage). I walk at least 5 miles every day, but I didn't start that until I had lost some weight. I actually work several days a week while walking at my treadmill desk. The other day I actually logged 17 mlles!! I never could have imagined I would be able to do that seven months ago.

My starting weight was 270 and I lost about 150 pounds. I drink about a gallon of liquid a day, although not much of that is plain water. Most is decaf iced tea, decaf iced coffee, herbal tea and a protein shake or two. The only exercise I do is walking my dog.

My starting weight was 330 I am now 175 and been 175 since my surgery in 2005. I never drank enough water. Every time I had a check up they always told me I was dehydrated and ended up giving IV fluids right then and there to rehydrate me. I have downloaded an app on my phone that helps me keep track of the water I drink daily and also it encourages me by drinking more so that app has helped me allot. I can feel the difference in my body when I do drink enough compared to when I dont.
323/170/175 I'm @ GOAL!!! Wooohooo =)
Since my Tummy Tuck im now under my goal ???
If you can dream it, you can do it. Live your dreams !!!
