Melly--Way to go holding at 136.5 over the weekend! That is so awesome that you were able to eat a bit more and still maintain. Don't you almost feel like you are getting away with something?

I am still holding at 138 myself. I'm happy with that. The longer I'm under 140, the more my body set-point gets use to it!

Debra--I agree, SI6 is a great program. I did it about a year ago and really firmed up. It's very tough, but you have to be consistent with the 6-times a week workouts for at least 6 weeks.

If you can't find it at Walmart, Melly, I'd be willing to sell it to you for way less than I purchased it for. Let me know, okay?

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Sandy:

Thank you, and yes, I do feel like I'm getting away with something. LOL. I'm glad to see you are holding at 138. I hear you about staying under 140 and your body set-points. Ya know, I've decided whatever I get down to in the next two weeks will be my goal. You see, I start my new full-time job on Nov. 7th, and will not be able to workout as much as I've been these last 3 months of being out of work. So, I decided that whatever I get down to is what I will try to maintain. I'm glad with what I've achieved already. Maybe by next spring I will shoot for 130, who knows. I do hope to get to at least 135 before I go back to work, but we'll see. Have a super week everyone and COME ON 135 for Friday and Sandy, COME ON 137 or 136!!

Hi, I was thinking of taking Lipovarin but i was very nervouse. I was reading your feedback and feel a bit more comfortable. I have anxiety problems to like you Melly and i take zoloft right now. Has anyone taken this with zoloft. I dont want to start shaking like cray or something
How many are you supposed to take a day, do they work if you cut the dosage? Im 170 and would like to weigh 130 like i used to .
..anyonw..??

My recomendation would be to ask your doctor about possible drug interactions. That being said diet pills may help a bit but don't forget the best way to lose weight is the same way they have been telling us to do it for years, exercise and a healthy diet. As Oprah has said before if there was a magic pill she would have it.

Thanks for the advice. I bought a bottle today and Im going to try taking them starting with 2 pills a day. I will let you know the outcome
What about taking them with these carb blockers I hear about? I bought a bottle of those to. It says take one with starchy meal..hmmhh..

[Erin23]

Hey all- I have been following your progress and got my bottle of Lipovarin today from Costco.com like the one lady told us about. $49.99 for the 150 bottle is good right? Anyway, i wanted to get the carb block product too from sterling grant so i ordered that online as well. Cant wait!

Melly, Melly! I was so excited, I had to come over here and tell you that I weighed in at 136.5 this morning!!! Only 6.5 measly pounds to go.

I totally understand about you being content at where you are right now. It is more important for you to concentrate on your new job. Besides, you will probably get to 130 anyway now that you've established such great eating habits.

Okay, I'll check in tomorrow with you, too! Hope you are having a great week.

136. Oh well, only a half of pound, but I'll take it! LOL. I don't know if it's because I missed a few days working out(have my tom) or the candy I have been TRYING and FAILING to ignore that hubby buys for our Halloween Candy bowl! LOL! I have great self-control, but when your home all day, you're bound to stick your hand in a few times. LOL. Oh well, all I can say is COME ON 135 or 135.5 FOR MONDAY!! Congrats again Sandy on your loss!! WOO HOOOoooooooooooooooo

Ghould mourning Melly!

How are you this fabulous Halloween morning? I am still the same weight today (136.5), after going up a pound yesterday. I'm a little bummed because I was aiming to be 135 by Halloween but I'm not complaining too much.

I hope to hear some good news from you this morning or to hear that you've at least maintained. I think when you start your new job and quit coming here, I will as well. I'm on too many forums and it's taking too much time away from my studies. I'll check in here on Mondays and Fridays until your last day.

Have a great day and week, Melly!

Good morning Sandy and everyone!!

I had a good halloween, thank you. How was yours? I made a pumpkin face on me and wore my orange pumpkin t-shirt and took my son. He was a scary monster. When my sis emails them to me, I will post one on my homepage at mellybelly1967@yahoo.com. I went with my sis and my niece. My sis made a kitty face and my niece was a werewolf!! Wahhhh....scaryyyy monstersssss...LOL. Anyway, I weighed in Monday at 137, so I'm up a pound from Friday, but that's o.k. I really cheated this weekend, LOL. I'm hoping to get to 135 by Friday though. My sis and I went out to dinner at Applebee's Saturday night and I got chicken parmesan and then we split a apple crisp pie a la mode, and to top it off, we went to the club and I had 2 drinks AND chips&salsa!!!! LOL. THEN, I'm not done, we had a birthday party on Sunday for my nephew. My sis made Italian Wedding soup, I had some of that, after I had already had lunch at home keep in mind, some chips&dip, then we had ziti with meatballs and pork, THEN I had a sliver of cake. I have to say the whole weekend, my portions were not bad at all, but I did eat alot more than my normal diet. It's so nice to let loose once in a while. I'm glad to see you're still holding 136.5, that's great! I think you look fantastic, and honestly, I don't think you need to lose a pound more. You look beautiful and skinny. I'd like to be 134 by Monday if I can and maintain from there. I will cut back a bit on working out, maybe 3 times a week instead of 6 times, but I will continue to work on toning up for the summer!! Who knows, maybe after I have worked for awhile and stuff, I just might come back for a quick 10 pound loss challenge and get to 120! But I'm very happy with where I am today and proud. Thanks so much Sandy for all your inspiration and cheerleading! I loved having to be held accountable or I don't think I could have done so well. I loved all your little smileys too! They are so cute!!! Well, I'll see you all again on Friday's weigh in. Keeping my fingers crossed for 135 at least!!! Next Monday is my last day of my weight loss, so I think the weekend after that I will take some very nice pics and find a before pic and post them on this site.

135.5. Woo Hoooo. I'm happy that this is almost over. I start my new job on Monday and then I am just working on maintaining whatever my Monday weigh in is, so I probably will not post anymore. I will try to read them though ever now and then to maybe offer advice or answer questions. I'll probably cut down working out 5-6 days a week to 3-4 times a week. I'll always drink my water and watch what I eat. I don't EVER EVER want to be 180 again! Put it this way, I will try very hard to keep this weight so that I don't ever have to get that big again. It's all up to me. Anyway, I'm hoping for maybe 134 Monday and I'M DONE!! YIPPPEE! Sandy, have a fantastic weekend!! How are you doing? I hope you're doing good! You only have a few measly pounds to go too!! I know you will get there! You are so driven, as I was too! Take care everyone and I'll post again Monday night.
