i've only lost 5 lbs in the 2 or 3 weeks I've been doing this.  It is frustrating when it seems everyone around me is losing at a much faster rate.  It makes me say "whats wrong with me" I started going to the gym again this week, been doing cardio everyday.  I hate working out, it is so boring and repetitive, but I guess I'm just gonna have to do it, or nothing is going to happen.  I haven't been able to bring myself to do weights yet, thats even more boring and repetitive than cardio! I hate naturally thin people!!! LOL

umpa, what cereal are you eating? I haven't found any around here that are low carb...

Also, just wanted to share with everyone, that for a sweet chocolatey treat, I discovered that Dairy Queen has a chocolate fudge bar that only has 4 net carbs...it's not one of those dinky lil ones either! Thought I might share if that will help anyone out with an ice cream chocolatey craving!!

the mousse receipe looks really tasty! I'm gonna have to try that one!!
Any ideas for breakfast?? I have been eating scrambled eggs for the past two weeks, and just can't force myself to do it today!! I don't want to lose my motivation.  It looks like a lot of you have been on this for some time..what do you do to change it up?

thanks for all the support everyone, it really means a lot.  I have to say, even though some foods are off limits, I feel more satisfied on this than anything else I have ever tried.  I love to cook, so all the new things I get to make keep it really exciting.  It is important to me to raise my son in a healthful way, and he loves all the receipes too!! (he's only 6) I really think it's cool too that Doug, you make yourself so accessible to all of us out here.  Gotta go to the grocery store!! Later!

I just started a week or so ago, but a typical day for me is:

Breakfast: 2 (if I'm really hungry, 3) scrambled eggs with a little bit of diced green pepper, 1 slice of diced canadian bacon. 

Snack: almonds /or string cheese (reduced fat)

Lunch: chicken breast/salad

Dinner: chicken or fish of some kind, green vegetable.

Snack: sugar free jello with reddi whip or jello sugar free mousse cup with reddi whip

Hi Everyone...just joined the website today...been doing the plan for a little over a week now.  I sure hope it works.  I have tried a bazillion things to lose weight and nothing gets that number on the scale moving.  I want nothing more than to be thin, healthy and beautiful.. I'm really tired of being the fat one of all my friends.  Most would say i'm not fat, but curvy..either way, it's too much for me.  I want to lose my gut once and for all!!! I have had a child, so I realize that short of a tummy tuck, I will never wear a bikini again, that is fine by me.  To just not have that tummy in the front would be enough for me.  My son is 6, so I can't blame my weight on him..ever since my last year in high school I have been heavier.  Before that, I was very thin, and had abs!! (imagine!)  Since then, my weight has gone up and down... I lose 60 lbs once on a liquid diet, but as you guessed, no way is that kind of thing maintainable, so back on the weight came.  I've done Weight Watchers with some success, (20 or 30 lbs or so) but it always comes back.  So a friend of mine started fat to skinny, and all she ever does is brag about how much she's lost (27 lbs in a month and a half) and now she's posting pictures of herself on facebook left and right!! She lent me her book and I have been doing the plan a little over a week now.  At first, I was happy, on the 4th day it said I has lost 3 lbs!! But at the 1 week mark, I weighed myself and was discouraged to see I was a lb heavier than when I started!!! (still am  :-\)  I am determined to get some results!!!  I want to loose (and never find again!) weight.  I hope this is the answer.  I have spent countless dollars on diet pills, etc, .  I know I need to exercise, and that is the hardest thing to stick to for me.. I just don't enjoy it, and can always find reasons not to do it..  I really want to prove myself wrong this time.  I hope this works!!!
