8 lbs in one week.   8 POUND - ONE WEEK..  (I had to shout it!)

I have tried all my life to lose the weight. Looking at the diet plans and progams I have tried, I cannot believe the hidden sugar in what I thought was healthy! 

I am not sure if this pace will continue but I am enjoyng not being hungry and sometimes feel so full, I don't know how the weight can posibly come off!  But I wake up, weigh myself and find I'm down another lb!

Thanks for writing this book, Doug, so that my husband saw it, and gave it to me for Christmas... It has turned out to be better than any piece of jewelry he could have found.  Actually, it was a Diamond for me !

I'll check in next week with an update (looking for at least 4 lbs)

Cheers
Theresa

Hi Theresa!  :)

That's fantastic!!!  :) :) :)

Just be careful about setting expectations of future weight loss.
Our bodies operate in their own time based on many factors.

By living the FTS lifestyle, we are creating an environment that forces our bodies to lose FAT.
For some, this environment generates fairly rapid weight loss.
For others (like me), the weight loss is slow, but it is sure.

Just remember... To lose weight and keep it off the rest of your life, you will continue to live the FTS lifestyle.
It's not a race to a finish line.
We will never be "finished" being cautious about carb intake.
What you do today is what matters!

Thank you Mouseissue,
I am usually one of the slow ones.  I am so excited to see results but also understand that it is a lifestyle change (which I needed). 

Slow and steady wins the race but it's nice to get that headstart!   ;D
 
After reading this book, and navigating around the website and educating myself about hidden sugar and carbs, I look at food in such a different way now.  That right there is a lifestyle change! 

I'll keep pluggin!

Well done Teresa, that's fantastic!

I've lost another 2, which means 7.5 lbs loss for me, but my official weigh in is not till tomorrow, and I'll also do my measurements.

I'm thrilled with my loss, but I know it will slow down, but I am already feeling so much better, and that's worth a lot more to me than lb loss at this stage!
