3rd day of my diet (124)

Of course. Remember though that I'm an expert in 'how' to lose weight, just as all big people are, so I don't need advice on what to eat or how to lose it. I just need will-power. That is the main thing that anyone who wants to lose weight needs.

okie dokie..will keep my two cent's then cause was going to make suggestion's on what not to eat but hey,keep up the great work,you will get there...

Okie dokie, thanks for the support, I appreciate it lots. :)

Anytime,we are all here for you..

Thanks! Well all but one person it seems anyway.

gfy.....if you need any help losing weight just email me.....i am a personal trainer.....and ill be glad to help you baby brother.....

Personally i really think diets are on the fence so many people take paet in diets and end up very ill and depressed and others lose weight and then start to critisise others. theres a few people at my work who are on diets and have been for the las 14 weeks and they have lost only 4 pounds.......... are they doing the diet wrong or is it the wrong diet.......
there are so many diets out there and so many of them can go horribly wrong......... but the main questions are:

Are they taking over our Lives?
Is there any need for them we are who we are?
or is it a Step forward?

THIS WAS NOT BROUGHT FORWARD TO OFFEND ANYONE....

Hi Jamie. I pretty much agree with a lot of what you wrote. I don't go for all these crazy diets where you have to eat loads of the same thing, or eat at odd times, or spend hundreds on stupid pills. None of that is sensible and normally doesn't work anyway. The only sort of diet I ever go on is a sensible one where I eat less and exercise more. All these other diets are fads that don't give long-lasting results. Losing about 2LB a week is about right. If you keep that up for a few weeks then you can stuff your face like a horse (do horses really stuff their faces?) for a week and you'll still lose the 2LB! Just make sure you go back on the diet again so you keep the routine up. So it's more a change of lifestlye, but something you have to stick to.

As for your questions - Well when you're as fat as me, you HAVE to lose weight. It bugs me when young girls get all funny about being 1LB heavier than the girl next door. They don't need to diet, that's just stupid. People like me though really do need to and if I don't, I will die early. It's as simple as that and I won't pretend it isn't that serious. Losing weight will sort out my health which will in-turn help my social life (so that I might actually have one!). So I guess it depends who you are, whether it's really something you need to do or not.

By the way, this is now the 3rd week of my diet and I'm still doing pretty well. :)

Well Done your obviously taking the safe and the easyest option for you........
just dont get involved with the latest diets in the area because they only end up in tears and depressed.

Just take it in your stride you sure will lose weight if you are willing to concentrate and put your mind to it good luck.
