It's here!! Family Matters is out now.
I DID IT!!! I finally reached my weight loss goal this past week!!!!!!! OMG I’m SOOO HAPPY!!! I wanted to lose weight for almost two years and just didn’t have the dedication or motivation to actually DO it. I tried to eat good and exercise, which helped me lose around 1 pound a month, but…
I can’t believe it’s already been one month since I started the Dukan Diet! It doesn’t seem like I have been on a diet that long. “Time flies when you’re having fun!” ?? Today is my biggest success so far. I finally reached 115 pounds!!!!!!!!!! Please join me in a happy dance at this time……
When I set out to lose weight and share my journey with my readers, I did not expect to receive more hate mail than encouraging notes… Apparently people’s perception of being HEALTHY has been totally skewed by the enormous amount of overweight and obese people in this country. I didn’t think I would need to…
I did it! I’m down to 119lbs! Oh my goodness, if someone had told me a month ago I was going to lose 9 pounds in 3 weeks, I would have thought they were nuts…. Seriously, if I had known it was going to be this easy, I would have done this a YEAR AGO!!!…
Sorry for the lack of updates. For 5 days (day 12 – Day 17) I was on mandatory bed-rest with Cellulitis (deep tissue infection similar to flesh eating bacteria) from a tick bite. I had to have my leg elevated and it was swollen and in an excruciating amount of pain. Definitely, hands-down, the most…
I’m considering myself at the halfway mark at this point… In less than two weeks I have lost 6 pounds, and I have around 6 more pounds to go! It’s an amazing feeling! I didn’t think I could do it… I thought after my second child that my body was never going to let go…
Well I had an interesting day yesterday… I had to drop everything and run to the doctors because my leg was swollen up like the Good Year blimp and I was in so much pain I couldn’t walk! Turns out I have a horrid case of Cellulitis. Despite it’s name, it does NOT have anything…
Okay! Praise the Lord! I got back down to 123.2 lbs today! Day 7 – 9 was a bit of a struggle, but the extra situps, 10 minutes on the stair stepper and a little bit of jogging during my required 20 minute daily walk seemed to have helped push me through the plateau. Here’s…
So I wonder to myself…. Can I drink too much water??? I had 2.5 quarts yesterday on a PP day and I’m still 124 lbs, although I don’t feel bloated… Yet… My period is due on Friday. (Sorry for the TMI ladies!) I usually gain 3-5 pounds the week leading up to my period. Perhaps…
I lost 4 pounds in 5 days. I’m on Day 7 of my diet now and the “rapid weight loss” is starting to slow down. We all know those last 10 pounds hang on for dear life… *sigh* Attack Phase: Day 1 – I weighed in at 127.8 lbs (12 lbs over goal weight) Day…
I started this diet on Tuesday and here it is Saturday already. I’ve lost 4 pounds in 5 days which feels like an unbelievable achievement to me. Attack Phase: Day 1 – I weighed in at 127.8 lbs (12 lbs over goal weight) Day 2 – I weighed in at 125.0 lbs (10 lbs over…
Before I started this diet, I weighed between 128lbs and 132lbs for at least the last 5 months. I would drop a pound, feel great, then gain it back. It was very discouraging… Day 1 – I weighed 127.8 lbs (12+ pounds over my goal weight) Day 2 – I weighed 125.0 lbs Day 3…
Weighed in at 124.2 this morning. I’ve lost over 3 pounds in 3 days! Seriously, this diet is amazing. What an encouraging way to kick start a diet and get you motivated, huh?! It’s still hard to have to prepare food for the other 3 members of my family that are very much NOT participating…
Okay, I’m kinda loving this diet… Not because I love the feeling of craving carbs, but I love the results so far and it’s giving me a lot of encouragement to go further. I figure it won’t be this easy and this successful in the weeks ahead, but I love that this kick-start is actually…
Today I started the Dukan Diet in hopes of losing the last 15 pounds from my second pregnancy. When I was offered the opportunity to review the Dukan Diet, I was skeptical and a little hesitant. “Another diet?!” I thought to myself… I didn’t know if I was ready to take on such an extensive,…
