MB, when you posted that new haircut picture where you cropped off your butt, I think that is where the extra weight went. If you find your butt, I am sure the five pounds will come back.

Has anyone tried that NutriSystem that is being advertised on TV? They deliver food to your door and it is supposed to be about $295? Just wondering if it is worth making a phone call.

Mak1, I am banned from so many threads here, I figure it is just a matter of time before I get banned from this one too. I probably just haven't been discovered yet.
Oh, and MB's new hair is really cute, but I am banned from that thread, so I couldn't tell her.

Hi all, I had my four week weigh and measure on Friday, 10lbs and 8 3/4 inches. Hopefully I can do another 10 this month. My eating plan changed, adding back in some foods, life brown rice and whole wheat pasta(let me tell you 1/3c doesn't add up to much!) but the amounts went down for example, from 3.5 proteins a day to 3, 3 dairy to 4 and 4 fruits to 3 due to the 10lbs gone.

great job jasper!!! 10 pounds in a month is so good, especially since that includes a holiday. you are doing LA weight loss? it sounds kind of like how i learned WW. we used the food exchange system. how many carbs do you get each day? keep up the good work.

Kady/Holly - Thanks and yes LA Weight Loss. It doesn't get broken down into calories, carbs, it is broken down into proteins, fruit, veg, fat, dairy and starch. Then portion sizes of the allowable foods, which at this point is most everything keeping fat and sodium down, using low fat alternatives as well.

I've begun the new year with a wonderful 2 mile walk with my nephew and dog. My pre-holiday diet was no wheat, no meat and no sugar and exercise. That is where I am headed from here on out. Yayyy to all of us!!

Yooo hooo Jooj, I found the rolly-polly culprit... LOL Jooj said: MB, when you posted that new haircut picture where you cropped off your butt, I think that is where the extra weight went. If you find your butt, I am sure the five pounds will come back.
(butt shot) ETA - DH says it's proof positive that I have to get back to Curves pronto, (to get rid of the holiday calories).

I knew you could find it, MB. I upped the contrast on the picture a bit more so we could have a better shot of it.

I am at 153 as of this morning. Yeah, the size nine's I bought, hmmm, after wearing them once, they are too big in the butt and legs, but fit in the waist. Ok, ten to go.

my doctor that i am going to for the diet pills told me not to go over 1000 calories a day. and be sure to eat at least 700. i make sure the calories i eat are healthy ones. it is totally different from any diet i've been on. i'm sitting here thinking about my food today and not sure if i hit my 700. coffee w/coffemate, yoplait yogurt...then i didn't eat again till supper. half a wendy's baked potato with an itty bit of butter. i put some steamed brocolli on top and then melted a small amount of velveeta. i had a bag of sun chips while watching the apprentice. i also chewed a pack of gum today...thats 70 calories. i might have hit 710 today. i had my MRI and now have an appointment with my pain doc. if we can get my back helped so my sciatic nerve ain't killing me, i'll be getting into some excercising. then the pounds will fall off. i officially weigh-in every 2 weeks. i weigh on my scales every morning but it kinda goes up and down, so i don't worry about it until doctor day.

What pills are you taking, Kady? I thought the FDA had managed to take all the pills that actually worked off the market.
