Hi dejasnow,
Welcome to the Weight Loss Forums.
I'm glad you joined one Challenge. Do not worry if this one will end soon. there will be plenty more.
Pills aren't really essential in loosing weight, they help but there are plenty other ways to do it.
Feel free to tell us more about you, your training and nutrition.
Good luck. |

LOL Light, this is a new challenge.
As for pills I agree that they are not needed. But I would recomend taking a multivitamin and a fish oil supplement. |

| i am in dejasno...i am glad you started your journey to weight loss...as for me i started on jan 4 and since that time i have lost over 35 pounds. i never took pills was kinda scare at first but i tried lipovarin for the first two weeks but than i stop becus the only thing they were di=oing was stopping hunger. i seen that i lost over 5 pounds in those two weeks. but i decicded to stop and just keep doing the excercises and eat right. so far today i am at 222pounds. iam taking it one day at a time and excercising everyday okay. so i will be posting on here also to help motivated you. same thing happen with me these forums kept me motivated and i know it will keep you motivated too. i never liked to take pictures of myself not even with my kids cus i had low self esteem. really i took i picture the oher day with my husband and i like the way i look in it. even though i still do weigh alot but i know that if i keep on what i'm doing eventually i will lose more pounds. in june 14 or 15 i have docs appoinment to weigh in and i will let you know. but in the mean time i will weigh myself at home and post on here...good luck.... |

Hello! I'll join you in this challenge! Maybe this is the kick in the pants that I need! I journal everything online, and I changed my goal date to October 20th! I'm going to try for a 20 pound loss--this should be easy to achieve, since it would be about 1 pound a week. 
Good luck to you, and let's do this thing! :d |

Today I'm up a little to 167.2# but I did take a few days off for my health.
How are the rest of you doing????
I started Hydroxcut Hardcore today, if you want to follow my progress with it I started a journal in the other diet pills forum. |

| well for now it is my goal because I just had a baby (6months ago) and I plan on having my second once I loose the weight. My size is not very clear I am still using some of the maternity clothes. I lost 100 lbs abput 2 yrs ago by excersice and cutting back on meals. But this time it seems like my metabolism is going backwards. But its not working. I have tried everything. I hate vegetables so I am trying to eat healthier and less. I excerce Tea bo 3x a week and walk 30 min twice a week. NOTHING. I just ordered Liprovin (sp) we'll see if that helps. |

That is a very broad statement. Do you like any? Have you tried cooking them different ways? It just sounds like you made up your mind when you were younger and haven't tried them again. I used to hate fish with a passion, that was until I tried it again a few years ago. It is really good when it's cooked right 
I know all about the maternity clothes, I am still wearing some. Mostly because they shrink with me so I don't have to buy as much new clothes

How long have you been doing this? You need to change up your workouts every 6 weeks or so to see the most benifit. Do you do any strength training? Strength training makes the biggest difference in weight loss (especially inch loss when the scale has stopped moving). How hard are you pushing yourself? You should constantly be progressing in your workouts. If you are still walking the same distance in that half hour you probably need to push yourself more. |
