Hi there, I know losing such a large amount of weight can be daunting and stressful, and stress will only make things worse. I need to lose about 100 lbs, and having a nine month old baby makes it seemingly impossible. If you want, I can start chatting with you daily, and we can hold each other accountable for our food choices and activity levels. I need more support than I have, sort of a no excuses muse. Let me know how you feel about my proposal, we can start by just figuring out triggers, and go from there.

Yes I would like that very much so .

Ok great! I live on the west coast donors getting late here. Today I did well eating wise I feel like, especially because family troubles have been making life more stressful. The one thing that you can start immediately is take your weight in pounds, divide it in half, and drink that many ounces of water per day. The recommended amount is eight glasses, but really this equation ensures that people are properly hydrated according to their size.

okay thanks ! I will do that I know I need to drink more water..I have done well today with my eating..It gets hard sometimes when you husband would never eat healthy lol . Sorry about your family troubles hope it gets better

Trust me I know how hard it is to get the whole household on board with better eating habits. It might not be right away, but eventually grocery shopping will be the main issue at hand. If junk food isn't in your pantry, you won't eat it simply because it's not there. I hate when I go and get a bunch of awesome raw fruits and veggies and come home to my sister in law packing our pantry with literally 4 kinds of potato chips. I don't buy chips even as a snack for myself, I don't consider them something that I crave either. But guess what? I eat the crap out of them when I'm home.

Oh my husband loves his chips and sweets that is my problem not the chips but sweets I know its very hard to keep my away from them I do try to buy lots of fruit but he eats that as well lol .

Sweets are a weakness for me as well, not as bad as when I was pregnant, but still bad. Have you been keeping up with your water intake?

yes I have...I drunk alot more water than I usually do and I been exercising some and counting my calorie intake how have you been doing ?

That's great that you lost 50 lbs but when you have 100+ lbs to lose I wouldn't recommend eating any of that stuff. In moderation, fine, but none of that crap nourishes your body. It's empty calories and holds no beneficial vitamins or minerals. Again, once in awhile is fine. My sisters, oddly enough, are both health and fitness nuts, and they have one "cheat day" a week. That way they can go crazy, but the 6 other days of the week they work their asses of and eat very healthy foods. This isnt just about losing the weight... It's about changing your lifestyle entirely and that's hard to do when you have all that crappy food hard wired in to your daily activities.

Its good you lost 50 pounds ..but i agree its very hard when you have a big amount you need to loose that why i cant just sit around eating cakes my husband eats all the food he wants and isn't huge but It just doesn't work that way with me /

Ugh don't you hate that? Men get to eat like pigs and when that put on a couple lbs they even look cuter? Haha!

Yes !! How have healthy habits been going with you ?
