It is a new week, no excuses. I was a size 20, now I am a size 14. Yayyyyyyy. NO, I did not loose my weight the right way, I was having lots of other problems. I look back on it now, and dont really care how I lost it, it is gone. I just want to keep it off, because I just bought new clothes. cant have that money going down the drain,now can we.
Thanks for the calorie counting idea, I have never done that, I am going to right now!!
I also take anti's, they have definitely given me a fight, they love to hold on to that fat. Hate 'em, have to take 'em.
Keep on and on and on and on, you are an inspiration to me.
PS, I have never read the knife attack story. so sorry you had to experience something so horrendous! So glad you are alive and able to live among the best of us!!! Prayers to you also.

I know you can keep it off.... if it's what you really want you will make it happen.
Thanks for your encouraging words... they REALLY help!!
Calorie counting has TOTALLY opened my eyes to see how MUCH (portion wise) as well as unneeded calories. WOW....I'm guessing before this week I was eating close to 3,500 calories a day... no wonder I packed on the pounds.

You know something? I didn't realize what an affect actually having to WRITE out what you eat daily , for all the world to see, would have. Isn't it amazing that we now think twice about how many calories are in what, and if we had enuf protein, or veggies or fruits for the day,..........etc, etc........I know how you feel.....I'm feeling the same way.....
I think if others would do this they'd get that same feeling.......the OMG..........to much candy, or OMG, no protein, or veggies, or whatever...........feeling... 
Then there is the other factor.............what are others going to think if I've eaten nothing but muffins for 3 days in a row? (Something I've been known to do, BTW.)

Good for you Shell!!!
I wanted to give you a suggestion if someone hasn't already given it to you. Since I didn't post for a few days haven't got to check. When I went on a diet what I did BESIDES weigh myself was to take my measurements. I took my bust, waist, hip and thigh (for the thigh measure down eight inches from the waist (that is the part of the thigh they say IS your thigh) and then measure it around the circumfrence and after write down the date you took the measurements and all the measurements you took. Now when you weigh yourself (not more than once a week or you will go crazy LOL) also take your measurements and write them down. Then if don't lose that week or lose less than you think you should have the measurements will show how many inches you've lost. Sometimes when we lose weight it is only water, and if we don't lose it is because we're holding the fluids,but measurements show how much FAT is being burned off. I lost 67 lbs. when I did diet and did this and it really helps. You will notice a couple of pounds one week, none another and then can drop 5 or 6 the next week. Since you are also exercising the measurements will really show how many inches you've lost.
The most important thing to remember is it took us quite a while to put the weight ON and it will take time to also get it off, but it WILL come off. It took me 8 months to lose the 67 lbs. Now I need to lose what I put back on again as that was quite a long time ago.
You Can Do It!!!!!!
Hugs and Congrats to you!!!!
Pat
