I am a first time mom, and after trying for the last 9 months to do it on my own (obviously not successful) I am looking for some support! Any help would be appreciated!
Hopefully, we can support each other! I'm 20 years old, no kids, but I've been the same weight for the past ten years and I want it gone! My goal is to really just do it on my own and lose two pounds a week for the next ohhhhh.... twenty-some odd weeks or so, haha.
This past year, I joined Medical Weight Loss Programs from the Midwest, and true, the first week I did loe weight, but the diet was so strict (I mean chicken ***, fish, red meat twice a week). And then ya had to weigh in way across town every single day. Not to mention they wanted you to spend $30 a week for 22 weeks on their protein bars. To quote them "You can only buy OUR protein bars or else we won't let you continue on our program." Hello? It's MY $1,000 I'm wasting on you. They did not want you to exercise and so when I did I was even MORE hungry!
Haha my ranting is done, maybe I should spread the word on this place, lol.
I did learn though that the secret to weight loss is protein and lots of it. Veggies are good too.
Well, good luck to ya and if you'd like to talk, my myspace is myspace.com/imuffckinsweet. I doubt I'll be here much.
Have a great day!
Also, avoiding salt and sugar and even artificial sugar is a tip I picked up, too.
