Only the beginning...

Postby hal1031 » March 12th, 2005, 11:16 am

Hi everybody,

I am starting on the plan tomorrow and I am very excited about it.
I have a first level goal weight loss of 40 pounds by May 15th, that is in 9 weeks; I hope I can do it. My stepdaughter is getting married on May 21st and I want to look my best.

I look forward to interacting with you in the forums.

See you at the weigh-in! :D

Hi Hal1031,

Welcome, I just wanted to say good luck on starting tomarrow the first couple days are rough but just drink all the water(atleast 64 oz) and eat your extras(Pickles and celery)if you need to. Are you gonna do the full-fast or the 5 and 1? I think your goal is reasonable with eaither plan, just remember the number on the scale is only a number. I think alot of the newer people get discouraged if they weigh themselves constintly and don't see numbers drop like crazy if you stick to the plan they will eventually. This is the best place for support. Congratulations on your stepdaughters marriage ;) Look forward to seeing you at weigh in.

Nikki
