How to lose 8 pounds
It made me
pleased
 "It was the natural outcome of a very busy period: I exercised a lot, worked a lot, and kept myself as busy as I could, so as to hardly have time to eat."
How I did it: Avoided eating junk food and did not eat in-between meals. I tried to eat more proteins instead of carbs and lots of fruit and vegetables, of course. Lessons & tips: I want to still lose more weight. I'll do this by trying and control my life in a more general way, not focusing only on dieting/exercising. Resources: 43things |

More "How I Did It" stories
It made me 
How I did it: it wasn't intentional. I lost ten pounds at college and now weigh 104. I'm gaining weight now, and want to eventually maintain a weight of 110. It startled me, to fit into size 0 jeans, and even more to realize how weak I looked. Read how I did it…

133 lb

I don’t think I’ll lose 3 lb by Monday, hopefully I’ll be 132lb. This means that I will have lost 8 pounds. Not bad, not bad at all!! (and with -8 pounds I’d mark my challenge as “done”).
However, it’s soon to tell. I might even gain some weight over the weekend. It’s still a long way to go.
froglivers has to buckle up and go get'em.

Well, I just had to go and pack on a couple more, WHILE on the “be sensible and don’t pig out on beer and chips” diet. thud
So, 8 pounds it is, not 5. Who knows. Maybe the “right for me” plan will end up being -5 after all.

Day one: morning
6 months ago
Had healthy breakfast and I’m now about to prepare lunch and clean the kitchen.
Now my main concern is not to eat before lunch time and then not to eat between lunch and dinner. I need rhythm.
Stress update: I recovered from my injury, and this puts me in an optimistic mood. Hopefully I’ll manage to stay cheerful throughout the day and not let the fear of the future overwhelm me.

I want to lose weight. It’s high time not to be afraid to be slim. I have to. I owe it to myself.
This is the plan:
- 4 pounds on the first week (27th April-4th May)140—>136 (62kg)
- 4 pounds on the second week (4th-11 May) 136—>132 (60kg)
- 2 pounds on third week (11th-18th May) 132—>130 (59kg)
It is very hard to lose weight, yet I need to believe I can do it!
I can do it…. I just have to do it.
Strategy:
1. plan my meals in advance
2. only buy food once a week
3. do ANYTHING to unwind BUT eat…!
4. daily exercising
5. weekly sauna and steam bath
6. meditate on a daily basis (preferably before exercising)
7. not to give in to outside pressure.
No.3 and 7 are the toughest. Will I succeed? We’ll see…
Lose those last pounds

I want to get back to my pre-babies weight. The pounds have started sneaking on the past two winters, and I want to shed those extra eight.
K~ is thinking of some new goals
I was in shock this morning...
13 months ago
when I went on the scale. It was 4 pounds higher than usually (due to having, preparing and finishing the leftovers of a nice brunch…). But the usual was also a bit too high.
So now I am going to lose those 8 pounds to have BMI of 23 (now it’s almsot 25…). And when I reach this goal and keep this weight for a four weeks, I am going to get rid of that first goal of mine (Achieve and maintain a healthy weight).
...Quite a motivation ;-)
Would help if I actually tried

I keep saying I need to do this by October 25th but that time is ticking away and I need to get started. Last night we ate at ihop and I had 2 pumpkin pancakes (DELICIOUS!), 2 eggs, hash browns and bacon. Just not the way to go to reach this goal!
