Motivation to lose 100 pounds Posted: 11-19-07 10:57am
I need to loose about 100 pouns to be at
my "average" weight and to make myself
more healthy. I know I can do it and it
will be hard - but I am having the hardest
time finding the motivation...any
suggestions?

I have lost 119lbs. I eat the
chocolaterave protein bars for breakfast
and lunch. For dinner I have a frozen
dinner either south beach or amy's
organics. In between when I get hungry, I
eat the chocolaterave nuggets, a piece of
fruit, a veggie, or string cheese and
nuts.
I've been eating this way for a long
time.
My doctor thought I had a stomach staple,
but I've done it all on my own.
I also have an ear staple in which helps
my mood!
You can do it...

I don't have much advice for I need to
lose a lot of weight too but I just want
to say WAY TO GO JENZIE! Thats amazing
that you have lost so much weight on your
own! What a role model you are!
What are these chocolaterave things you
are talking about? Can you find them in
the stores? I have never heard of them

I am down 130lbs. No, you can't find them
in stores. See my profile and homepage for
the link since we can't give out links I
don't think here.
I started with some acupuncture to my ear
for weight loss, but when it didn't work
as much as before, my nurse friend told me
about these protein bars. I swear they
fill you up. One of them has only 150
calories, like having a couple of eggs,
vitamins, and 4-5 servings of fruits and
veggies in orac value. You don't crave
sweets or carbs if you eat them before a
meal. That's the trick. I also walk
everyday the sun is shining.

I'm trying to lose some more weight to! I
changed bc and started dropping some. I've
lost about 25 lbs in the past year. But
since I've been watching what I eat and
the portions I've been losing faster! I
also have been working out with my Tae Bo
that I got for Christmas! I'm excited to
get down to my goal weight! I have 24-30
lbs to go!!!

Fear of Failure Posted: 02-15-08 11:27am
Last July I began portion control &
monitoring calories. I've lost 52# &
have 100# to go. A nutritionist gave me
this plan. I eat whatever I want so I
don't feel deprived. I don't obsess over
food & haven't binged. I haven't
exercised for a few months but plan to as
soon as I feel better.
One time I lost 60#. Then I hit the wall
because all I could think of was there was
a long way to go. My attitude is good so
far but on the inside I'm afraid of
failing.

Good for you bakin april. You will do it.
If I can do it, anyone can! I also found
exercising with a group of people helps to
keep me more motivated.
