I lost 2 pounds this week booo Aprill, f-ing booo

Better lose it slow than losing nothing, they say that to give your skin the chance to bounce back to its normal state while losing weight is better to lose 1 pound a week, youre doing better than that, so no boo's for you, you're doing great just be patient with yourself!

Congratulations on all that are losing weight!!!!! That is a TOUGH thing to do. Those that are still trying, don't give up. Just invision yourself in a smaller sized outfit.

I lost 35 lbs on Nutrisystem last year and have kept it off. For us ladies over 40 yrs of age, that's sometimes tough because of the hormone changes with menopause.

But, I still want to lose 20 more lbs.

I've lost 4 pant sizes. I'm not on NS anymore, but I've kept the routine (eating 6 small meals per day)...lotsa water, fruits and veggies and low carbs. Some chicken w/o skin, fish and lean turkey. I totally cut out sugar (I use Splenda or cook with natural applesauce in place of sugar) and only drink flavored water with no calories, water and green tea.

I work out 5 times a week with cardio, situps, yoga and dancing. I go dancing 3 times a week and I don't drink alcohol, so I'm dancing pretty much the whole time I'm there with gf's. It's a kick, I love it.

One thing I do have to say is.....I'm large breasted and no matter how much weight I lose, my breasts stay a 38 DD. So, JUST FOR HEALTH reasons, I'm gonna get a breast lift done later this year. They kill my back and squish my upper stomach and my grandma had a nice body, but large boobs and she shrunk!!!!!! They literally dragged her down. I've inherited that and don't want to be on muscle relaxers the rest of my life.

I've checked out the plastic surgeons here THOROUGHLY and have seen their work, talked to their patients, I'm really cautious because I've heard and seen bad breast surgeries.

It's taken me a long time to decide to do this, but after trying every bra out there, I gotta go with the lift. Not a reduction, although some of the tissue is removed.

KEEP GOING! I tell myself that every day....don't give up and if you cheat one time, just get back in the "ring" and work on it again.

Great post! And keep up the GREAT job!
How long have you been doing yoga for? And how has it worked for you?
Did you notice any good changes by doing it? i just added some to my routine so im looking to read about reviews on it

[MusicNMakeup]

Yoga is excellent. It's relaxing, helps your posture, stretches areas of your body that need to be and then it focuses on muscle toning exercises (abs, legs, arms...etc) and therefore you can lose weight by toning.

I highly recommend it if you're tired of the aerobics....high or low impact.

I'm joinging the weight loss support thread! I am trying to lose about 40lbs. I gained so much weight in college, it's ridiculous! I am now just starting to workout again by running/walking after work for 3 miles. The hardest thing for me is changing my diet. I do OK during the week, but on the weekends I binge. Boo!! I am trying to eat clean. It's a diet where you pretty much have to eat veggies/fruits/lean meats. It's great though. I was able to kick alcohol out of my diet (yay!) and I hope to see good results as time goes on. I also bought several supplements to help aid me when I work out. I'll keep y'all updated.
Good luck everyone!

I started at the end of January at 234 lbs....I was devastated. So I started controlling my calories and working my tail off at the gym....literally. I am now down 25 lbs and can't wait to reach under 200lbs. My total weight loss goal is 84 lbs. I have a ways to go but I feel great and I am off to a good start. Wish me luck
