It's coming off... slow but sure!
« on: August 08, 2010, 11:40:13 AM »
After losing about 24 lbs in the first 3 weeks of FTS I was really excited!  Then I not only didn't lose but gained a few pounds and stayed there for what seemed like an eternity!  Last week I finally got back down to the lowest I had been on FTS then THIS week I broke through to the next set of ten pound increments!
  I wish it was coming off faster but I know that it didn't get on that fast and the slower I lose the better for me health wise. 
  With so many years of YoYo-ing my body just thinks I'm kidding when I start a weight loss plan.  Now I think it's getting the message... This is a way of life now.  There is no turning back to the high sugar routine it was used to!
  I've got a long ways to go, but inch by inch, I'll get there!  Minus 26 and counting!!

founditatlast  you sound like me it is when the weight loss stalls that is my critical point ,instead of giving up & just saying I am just going to be fat we should just hold on . We all want instant weight loss thats just not going to happen . We got to keep saying even if we lose 5 lbs a month in 10 months we will be 50 lbs smaller . If we stop we will be 50 pounds bigger .
  I think Dougs book has made me see the light ,I will eat this way wether I lose or not because I feel better ,but I know the weight will come off maybe slower then I want it to . I also have a long way to go I did not but everything I want to lose 76 lbs was enough for me to admit to even on my ticker . I get on the scale iin the morning for my first weight loss ,so wish me luck . I have done very good so I hope I am not diappointed , my body is like yours it has been on so many diets it thinks here she goes again !
 We just got to be like Katary & the others on this great forum ,dont you love how people answer your questions ? :-*

Yes! gonnagetthere I do love the forum. It has helped in a lot of different ways.  I'm excited for you for the first weight in.  Let us know how you are doing!  And remember, even if the scale doesn't show a loss you will have lost inches and bettered your overall health.  Good Luck!
