Hi i'm new

Was hoping somebody could help me keep motivated!! I know a fair bit about weightloss, but the problem is that i have a lot to lose in a short period of time! I do have a competitive side, and I would love a little competition!

Hi,I have been doing the Atkins diet for about 4 weeks now and have lost 19 lbs. I know it won't always go this fast and also could use a little motivation.Let me know haw things are going for you.

Hi, I am new, I am not sure how this program and site works and I really hope that I can get motivation, tips and guidelines to finally get back in shape. I am about 38kg overweight and really need to get rid of this. I know a bit of weightloss, but I need this to work and stay off. i have started with an cardio & toning excersize program today and also take my dog for walks on the beach (weather permitted)

I just joined this program, i'm really not sure how everything works on here but i am figuring it out as i go along. I just joined some challenges, I really need alot of support...tonight i'm going to start all my exercises. Any words of encouragement, or tips, recipes, any exercise recommendations, ANYTHING will help!

im new at this as well but just a few tips on staying on top of the game. #1. suround yourself with people that support you, #2. if you have a bad day, dont call it quits, start fresh the next day. #3. whole wheats, veggies, fruits and lots of protein works for me. actually i eat alittle protein with every meal/5 meals a day, and i excercise 5-6 days a week. i started a healthy lifestyle 4 months ago and have lost a total of 30 lbs so far, its not easy to stay motivated all the time but i feel so much better and that helps me stay motivated. hope this is somewhat of an encouragement!

Hi I am new to this, trying to lose 25 to 30 lbs. need help putting meals together , not sure how many carbs, protein, and fats ( good fats ) should good together. Eat lots of veg, fruits and chicken. Anything will help.

i am new!!!!!! wanna lose so bad my baby belly but walking and push ups with eating lettuce only and water is not helping, i feel everyday like fainning

I'm doing a Ultimate Reset Challenge on September 3, 2012. It's a 21 day NON starvation detox program.

You need to eat!! Your body need proper fuel/food so it will function properly. If you are only eating lettuce your body is holding onto your stored fat for survival.

I'd love to help you on your fitness journey. Let me know if you are interested. You should also check out the challenge I have set up.

For those that mention recipes and putting meals together I'm afraid I'm not imaginative and tend to use a range of recipe books. For breakfast and lunch I don't have that issue as this time round I've reached for Herbalife and seeing more success than I did with Weight Watchers and Slimming World where I was hungry and negotiating points so that I could still drink (which defeats the purpose!). I've finally kicked the alcohol during the week which was a big one for me.

I've opted for the pound a week approach this time rather than looking for big losses early on and this has been more successful with 12 pounds in 8 weeks as I ended up losing more in a few of the weeks.

My biggest success was with Atkins where I felt great and lost weight quite quickly (3 stones in 3 months) - mind you I had a starting point of 16 stone so had a lot to lose! But then I fell pregnant and gained all of it and more and then Atkins wouldn't work the second time round.

Good luck to us all!!

Good Luck MJ.74 on your weight loss journey.

you don't have to lose weight in a short period of time .take your time and the results will be great !

Highly recommend Paleo or Primal Blueprint. I've never had success like this before and feel great, not hungry or faint. No sugar, no grain. Might be hard at first for most, but stick with it. It works.

I'm new too. and I feel so hard do this. today I've lost my diet :S:S:S:S I should be strong!!! :S I'm trying

How much do you weigh ? <3:-S:'(

In order to lose weight one must be able to know how to eat in moderation and exercise. You can practice eating in moderation by counting calories, measuring portions, learning about your nutritional needs and planning healthy meals are good ways of practicing moderation. Also you must combine a tolerable calorie restriction and exercise. And please don't deny yourself from foods that you enjoy very much due to the goal is to follow a healthy, balanced, and enjoyable nutrition and fitness plan that you can stick with in the long run.

hello sunsh. You are right!!!

I just started my diet a week ago and starting weight was 150 and now I'm 147 and my goal weight would be 120 and a nice toned tummy, the thing is I hate exercising and I would like motivation please and I have got wii zumba fitness 2 and I don't like playing it because its tiring, HELP PEOPLE, I walk about 35 minutes going to and coming from school every day.

If you really want to have a nice body , you have to exercise !!!
if you don't exersise you will never have a good body only with diet .
Don't think a lot !! Just do it !!! Add 60 minutes cardio 5 days a week and you will see results!!!
Edit : how old are you and you go school?

Ok if I put my mind and soul into this i hope i can get thru...its the sugar and bread thing...hunting after dinner for sweets ...i just need to get thru the next 3 days with no junk and i am golden. Add some exercise and feel netter too.

I too have Sumba 2 on the Wii I don't do the whole session at once I break it down to 20 minutes 3 times Day. Try this you will get the same effect as staying with the whole program all at once. Good Luck
