New and need motivated!

[shayrbear]

I just finished a day of carb-fest, and I am not feeling too good about it. So Back to the drawing board tomorrow! Here is my before pics, from August. I am already down about 8 pounds since then. (well, we'll see tomorrow!) I am trying to quit my coffee, I didn't give that up, and the wieght loss hasn't been what I thought it would be. Can't wait to post my after pics!!!

hi Sharon

Welcome to the site - I'm sure if you read everyones posts and stories on here, that will really motivate you! Thats what did it for me!!

I would really try to cut the coffee out for the first two weeks! Its only two weeks after all! and then maybe have the odd cup of decafe after that, but you will probably find you go off coffee a bit, I know I did, and I was a big drinker!

Good luck with induction - I cant wait to see your after pics!!
