Lol, the diet actually prohibits midweek snacking but after all of that yesterday couldn't help myself.

About 6 month into my weight loss journey I started giving myself days off...usually for special occasions...thanksgiving, christmas day, birthday and I find that it can be a nice break but it can also be difficult to get back on plan.

Excellent job so far! I just discovered this forum and I am so happy to see such a supportive group of people! biggrin

I definitely think that at the rate you are going that you will be able to make your goal by October. smile

[kissing_rain_03]

it's good to hear you are doing so well!! i am also trying to shed some pounds, about 50 to be exact, the thing i am doing right now is just no meats or poultry and smaller portion sizes and, because it's summer, i try to swim on daily bases or at least play outside, with my younger siblings.

Can you tell more about this Slow carb diet your on!?!
My birthday is also on October, and i think setting a date for your birthday is a GREAT idea!!
GOOD LUCK !! mrgreen

Ah, gotcha. x3

The Slow carb is not smaller portions, but big portions eaten slowly of meat, beans and veggies!

Start off with looots of protein for breakfast, then lunch and dinner stick with beans, meat, and veggies.
IE Breakfast I have 1 egg, 2 whites, peas, spinach, onion, and a little bit of cheese.
Lunch, tuna salad sandwich with lettuce and tomato and onion.
Dinner burrito bowl without tortilla.

Ie no bread, rice, wheat, ect. No drinking calories. Very little dairy -nod-

biggrin What day if you don't mind me askin!

Ah, gotcha. I think if I allow myself to eat everything I crave during the week and eat it on friday, it will keep me on the diet because I know that I can eat it, just not when I want it exactly.

I love this forum. x3 and thank you! Hopefully I will, I haven't been under 200 since.. jr high?

[kissing_rain_03]

[The L0ve Kitten]

How's the progress going?

[Silence_Walker]

The way I got from 220 (as a 5'8 male) to a 160 (5'11) was to limit myself to 1500 calories a day and do 100 situps each night.
Took me about eight~nine months.

The basic rule is take your ideal weight, tack on a zero, then eat that many calories daily.
And exercise like all hell. It's gonna hurt bad, but it's really what'll get ya going.

Now I'm at 6'00" and I weigh 180, because I wanted to bulk up.
So rawr, muscles.

Ohai peoples! Sorry I haven't updated at all recently. Anime con time and moving so stress is high diet isn't going so well, ect. xD As soon as I get money to buy the healthy food I will be going on the diet for a week before weighing myself again. I'm sure I gained it all back. X_x

[Megan LeStrange]

I just want to let you know, low-carb diets work as long as you're on them. As soon as you go back to eating carbohydrates, you'll gain the wait pretty quickly, I'm afraid. I mean, good on you for losing the weight you've lost, but I would hate for you to gain it back once you'd finished.
