Just wanted to post a picture of my weight loss so far. Just wanted to show yall that is it so possible to get in shape! Here is me in my size 18 pants that fit me very well before I started my weight loss. This in 9 months of dieting. Calorie counting and moderate activity. 210 lbs down to 153 lbs. 3 lbs away from goal weight :) Abdomen Waist Shoulder Stomach Arm

I ate smaller portions so that I would not starve through out the day or get ravenous when it was time to eat. The first few weeks suck, but once your stomach shrinks and gets used to the normal portion sizes you will be on your way. Of course there will be moments when you can't help but to eat like a pig (that time of the month) I just chose low calorie foods so I could eat more without going over my daily calories. Rice cakes where a favorite and they have tons of different flavors, fresh cucumbers were another favorite and are actually quite filling :shock: chicken is low in calories as well. A 4oz boneless skinless breast is around 120 cals. throw some bbq/hot sauce on it with some veggies and rice and there's still room for dessert. For example I'm addicted to those drumsticks haha which are 210 cals each. so for around 500 calories or less you can have a filling dinner and dessert! You just really have to want it and it takes a great amount of self discipline. Oh and you can't forget to cheat once in awhile :oops: just make sure after your cheat day that you get back on the track, but once you start seeing results it's quite easy to get back on track :)

I used my fitness pal . com. They gave me my calorie limits based on my activity level, height, and weight. I don't have much of a sweet tooth except for that time of the month, but I could eat sweets anytime if I wanted. All I did was tweak what calories went where through out the day.

Bitinsane, That's how my father would control his weight. He had to wear custom made suits as off the shelf didn't fit. He was tall and just right but if he put on 10lbs his suits didn't fit so well so he'd cut back a little on portions and after a few weeks those extra pounds would be gone. The summer he built our cottage he put on 35 lbs and discovered his suits were too big.
