Pop over to the Fresh Start forum, and find a whole gang of us in the "Aloha Group" thread. We try to keep things positive and motivated there. :)

Deana,

Becoming motivated to lose weight or to continue losing weight can be half the battle, especially if you feel tired and not yourself. On the Slim-Fast Plan, however, dieting is easy. We’ve counted the calories and built in the nutrition for you, to help take the guesswork out of dieting. Moreover, the principles involved will allow you to maintain your goal weight once you reach it.

To get motivated and started, it is first important to set realistic goals. Go to www.slim-fast.com, and enter in your information. The website will help you determine the Slim-Fast Plan that’s right for you so that you can get started. This way, by having smaller goals, you will be able to reach them faster and feel better and more motivated!

It's also important to track your progress. The Slim-Fast website provides a number of tracking and support tools to help you monitor your progress along the way, including a weight chart, a food diary, and an activity log. The goal of these tools is to keep you accountable throughout, which will likely increase your success on The Plan, and therefore keep you motivated! The website is also a great source of articles with additional weight loss tips, such as how to deal with cravings and hunger.

If you have specific questions about the plan or you just need additional support, you can also contact one of our Slim-Fast Weight Loss Advisors or a Registered Dietitian via email or telephone. We are here Monday through Friday, 9AM to 5:30PM EST, and we would love to help you. If you prefer (or in addition), you can also go online and sign up for our Community. Through the Buddy System, Forums, and Blogs, you can help motivate and be motivated by individuals who are in the same situation as you.

I know you can do it!

Sincerely,

Ali Auerbach, MS, RD

Registered Dietitian

Just think about how full of energy, happy, and healthy you'll feel when you've lost that 100 pounds! Then you'll be recognizing menopause as the doorway to a more carefree life! :)

I have a question about weight loss and menopause. I'm 51 and have just started going through it. How do you deal with weight loss when you feel tired, crabby, crappy and just not yourself?
