Hi. I'm looking for advice. A couple of years ago I went through some really stressful stuff. Anyway, my doctor put me on Paxil. That caused me to gain almost 60 pounds. Now I'm off the meds and I need to lose the pounds. I'm counting alories and doing karate two to three times aweeks for two hours aa time. Any ideas on how to jumpstart the weightloss? I'm desparate. Thanks.

can u substitute drinking water for crystal lite. i started on june 5 and that has been the only way 4 me to get the fluids in.

What's more important, dropping 4-5 lbs a week or the healthy choices we are making? For the past few weeks I have dropped 1-2 lbs a week, do I feel like a failure? No. Not until I read some of the posts where others seem disappointed in a small loss. I'm on the 5:1, it's working for me. But then there are those who think 5:1 is a 'bad idea', if it's not the 'full ...

Yeeeeeeeee Haaaaaaaa!!! Watch out for that wild-eyed, cartwheeling fat lady!

I have arrived! I finally 'breathlessly' stumbled through the door of the 40 lb club this morning! I actually dropped 2.4 huge, globby, yellow, dimpled, greasy pounds this week!

Now, that may not seem like much to some of you folks out there, but for those of you who know about my love/hate relationship problems with my scale the past month, it makes all the ...

I have been on medifast for 10 weeks now. I have on an average day 4 shakes and 1 soup every 3 hours. Some days I just have 5 shakes and no soup. So far I have done fantastically. I have lost 34 pounds, along with several sizes and inches. I want so much to keep going on this diet till I reach my goal of 95 pounds lost. However its not looking like Im ...

Yes, you read it correctly, and you'll never guess how it started. Thurs. morning for the first time in a year, I got into a size 12. I looked and felt so good. Put on a little self sun tanning cream and I gotta tell ya, I was feeling so good, even my 11 y/o son said, mom! you are really skinny! Feeling so good I almost wanted to call it quits and call it ...

I have been reluctant to purchase new clothes (don't want too many for in-between - saving money for a WHOLE NEW wardrobe someday), but noticed my favorite T-shirt is looking kinda bad on me. Was in Walmart this morning and saw a cute t-shirt dress and thought I would give it a try. The XL from the regular size dept fit. Wahoo!!! I bought one in navy and one in white. The navy I wore ...

I have been on the full fast program since Feb. 24, 2004. In that time I have lost 76 pounds. In the first week I lost 17 pounds and thereafter averaged 5 pounds a week. In the last couple of weeks my weight loss has slowed to about 2 pounds a week. My goal is to lose 120 pounds. Is it likely that I will see the 5 pound weekly losses that I have come ...

I am totally freaking out. I took several small bites of cornbread and beans. Why did I do it? I don't know but it feels really bad. I have done so well. I'm on day 10 and have lost 9 lbs. What do I do now!!!!! :( :(
