h.

Outstanding!!!




I will join you some day.

I need help. I've been stuck in a binge cycle and can't seem to break myself out of it. What are ways that you all avoid over eating/eating things that you shouldn't?

I was once told the best thing to do to stop yourself from binge/over eating is eat breakfast like a king, Lunch like a prince and dinner (evening meal) like a poor person. Basically have a huge breakfast, medium size lunch and make your evening meal tiny.

I have a HUGE healthy breakfast every morning and I never feel hungry or the need to snack. Yesterday was the first day in 3 weeks that I didn't have a big breakfast and I spent the whole day snacking and binge eating because I didn't feel full.

Drinking freezing cold water is a good way to stop you from binge eating. The water fills you up and ice cold water speeds up your metabolism. I used to be an emotional eater or just ate when I was bored and I found walking stopped me over eating and made me feel better.

Hi guys, sorry I've been away to see my parents in Italy for a few days.

I've just skimmed over a few posts and read a few people are loosing motivation?

What is causing this loss in motivation? Is it lack of time during the day to stay on top of your weight loss plan?

Are you loosing focus?

I would take some time out and start to focus on why you want to loose weight in the first place, it will never work it your DESIRE isn't there.Get the DESIRE back, you know it is there, pull it out wave it about.

Get some posters in some key areas around the house, like in the kitchen reminding you of your goal!

Remmember how it made you feel when you were on the right track and you were getting results?

If you're watching a lot of TV...turn it off, you're more likely to eat more when you're sat infront of the television.

If you're stuck in all day, go out you'll have less chance of eating if you're outdoors and you'll be active which will help you become motivated again.

Whatever is causing you to change your weight loss plan, identify it and eliminate it, otherwise it will only get worse...TAKE ACTION!

Remmember you've worked hard to get to this point...keep it going, be PERSISTENT, the rewards will be amazing, you'll feel great, trust me.

to your success

What I started doing recently was splitting up a snack that I crave into 3 or 4 portions that must last me the entire evening. I'll start off by downing 6-8 oz. of water, eat one portion then down another 6-8oz. of water right after I finish it. Wait one hour and if I still feel like eating that snack I repeat the process. Sometimes I will finish the snack in 3-4 hours, other times I have some left over and save it for the next time. The down side is possibly needing the restroom at night from drinking so much water but I'm dropping weight so I'll take it. I drink the water the same way with my meals, it helps.

I'm halfway to halfway. Heck yes.

i'm getting close to the 250's....I can't wait.
my "halfway to the halfway mark" is getting close too (260)

so i'll be posting soon to celebrate two things at once

wow our BMI's are practically the same (starting, current and goal).

awesome. At the rate I'm going (10 pounds a month) I'm probably not going to be out of this club for a LONG time. I think I should start stepping it up. The motivation for dieting is all there but I am a total lazy couch potato when it comes to exercise.

No way, let's party!

Do what I do; treadmill in front of the TV. Win/win.

I think when i averaged out my weightloss it came to 2.8 pounds a week so your on track 5 or 6 months and you will be welcomed into the 190s club. Would that be sweet

That is a great idea!! I'm stealing it!

Been an absolutly great week for me. Didnt lose anything last week but i kept faith and have just lost the final 4 pounds. Ill post it in here because this is where i feel most at home on this site. I think ill finally do a before and after thread. Im told i look like a different person, i suppose you lot will be the judge of that

SUPER CONGRATULATIONS!!!


Seriously, when I grow up, I want to be just like you!!!
