Ouch......
just weighed myself - no bueno.
I just started my diet/lifestyle change yesterday but I have to admit, that number was really rough to look at.
I got a "diet" from a trainer who my dad knows and its super easy and geared toward people like me who are on the go ALL the time and I have PCOS as well so it helps with that as well. I'm on day 2 and if I tell you how much better I feel its crazy.
I had wanted to start walking with the dog but its too darn hot so the gym will have to be it - plus I got some training sessions starting next week.
I need to lose 30 pounds - there I said it 
Wish me luck and I'm sending the same to all of you :)

Re: Ouch......
Good luck!! I think if you stick with it, you should see progress. Sticking to the diet for more than a few weeks has always been my problem.

Re: Ouch......
Stepping on the scale is the hardest part about this.
You've done that so now you are on your way!

Re: Ouch......
Thanks everyone :)
I'm on day 2 and I haven't shot anyone yet
Honestly, its very easy. I eat a ridiculous amount of food so I'm really curious as to what the scale is going to say next week.
Mon/Tues/Thurs/Fri/Sat - no carbs
Sunday and Wednesday - I can eat any carb I want but need to stop by the late afternoon.
Today is a no carb day so I've eaten so far:
10:00 - greek strawberry yogurt with wheat germ
11:45 - handful of blueberries
1:30 - greek salad with grilled chicken
I'll probably have a quick snack around 4 which will either be some strawberries or handful of nuts. Dinner is marinated pork cutlets, broccolini and I'll have to find something else. Then around 9 I could have another snack but I probably won't. I'll hopefully be at the gym
I love that I don't have to measure anything, count anything - its just easy. Of course I watch my portions but honestly, I'm so full. I'm drinking lots of water and maybe tonight if I am hungry I'll probably have some green tea with some agave nectar to sweeten it.
My true test will be a day like tomorrow when I am out of the house and have to remember to pack some things to eat. Days when I'm working will be a challenge but I have enough easy stuff handy that I'm ok.

Oh okay - and Sunday is my carb day too so I should kick start my day with a little zuuuuuummmmmbaaaaaaaaaa.
Seriously, no laughing at me. I should get there around 9:40ish right??? Wear flip flops, bring my other socks/sneakers to change into correct?
Good lord woman, you're killing me
