Default Quick results so far

The scale reads 5 pounds lost in five days. The cravings are going aways. Today is going to be tough. My 5 yr old is having a birthday party!!! I better come equiped with some snackies, I know there wont be anything acceptable there.

I love this site and it really helped me out with losing 69 pounds in 4 months the last time after the birth of my first child. So I'm hoping for the same if not more this time.

Thank you for this site. It provides so much support.

Well I lived through the Birthday party. I made sure to eat up before I went there. I took 3 slices of turkey meat and laid it on a plate took one slice of finlandia swiss(the best ever swiss cheese) and divided into 3 pieces, laid that on top of the turkey, then took 1 1/2 pieces of crispy bacon. Rolled them up and ate it!!! I bet it would of been better warmed up; to melt the cheese a little bit. Tasted just like a turkey club!!!!!!!


The only thing is I was the cake cutter. How was I nominated for this? After I cut everyone a piece, there was frosting on my finger and no napkin nearby. I licked it..omg and didnt even think about it. It's amazing how you just have habits. After I licked it, I thought, omg what did I just do? Probably 5 carbs in that one lick!!!!!!

As everyone was enjoying their cake and ice cream I had another glass of water..lol..not quite as tasty.

I agree, planning ahead makes such a difference! Also, eating before you go to an event....I've done this a few times and it's really helped me a lot.

Congratulations on losing 5 lbs in 5 days, that's awesome! Keep up the great work and stick to no cheating...it really makes a difference all around (physically and mentally).
