44 lbs so far...
Well, almost 11 weeks out now and I'm down 44 lbs. I was hoping it would be more by now, but heck, I'll take what I can get.
I have been listening to a lot of folks on the main board tell me that they really started losing more when they upped their calories, so I decided to try doing that for a little while. If it doesn't help, I'll drop back. I was doing between 500-800 a day but am going to try to go up to 1000 and see what happens. This weekend I just ended up eating more because of weird schedules and stuff, and I lost 4 lbs in just a few days, so I don't know if it was just the time or if that kind of pushed things along. Either way, I'm going to give it a shot and I'll report back if I find it has helped.

That is wonderfull, you'r doing great - Keep up baing a looser
Congrats Dina! Don't beat yourself up for doing a great job! You should be proud of what you have lost, an average of 4lbs a day, wow! How can that be slow? That is the only draw back to this website, we all compare ourselves, even when we KNOW we are all different and beat ourselves up if we don't "measure up" according to what someone else has done! Please don't mess with it, you are doing great and it will come off, whether fast or slow, eventually! Good to see you back by the way, I missed hearing from you! LeeAnn
Dina, 44 lbs in 11 weeks!! That's wonderful. I'll be thrilled if I can say that at 11 weeks. I'm glad it wasn't really 4 lbs a day! You'd have wasted away to a mere shadow of yourself! I don't really count calories. I know some days I get more that others. Let us know how the bumping of of calories works. Keep up the good work. Janice
Well Missy Dinka Doo I think I've gained 44 pounds since I made my appointment with destiny. I think 44 pounds is super duper and you should really be proud. You don't want to lose too much and be sickly. Let me know if upping your calories helps. I will up mine right along with ya! Serously, let me know because I print out everything you say so I have a journal to follow. I have less than a month to go. Glad to see your smiley little face when I sign on!
By the way, I asked for a pretty profile but I haven't heard anything. I suppose if I had some direction I could do it myself. Are they really backed up? I am so bad at waiting for anything. christmas was always so fun in our house! I shook those presents, sniffed those present, swooze those presents till there were'nt nofin left.
good for you, Dina. I've got my fingers crossed. Reading your post helped me realize that eating three 2oz meals and 1/2 protein shake per day probably wouldn't set me on a very good path, so I've added a snack and the other half of the shake... until I can eat meat it seems so futile to even TRY to get in enough protein.
You're doing great - I look forward to your results.
