The heavier you are, the qucker you lose weight. You could probably lose 50 pounds by then. In the begining if you work hard you will lose more thn after you lose some of theweight. This is because the extra weight burns calories quicker. But if weight loss slows, which it will, then don't get discouraged and keep you head in there. Good luck and try and ask someone you live with to monitor your food intake. It may seem like an invasion of privacy, but it is the easiest way to limit yourself!

whenever i get the urge to eat for the sake of eating (or whenever i get bored), i think to myself "is that cake really worth it? i'm already full, why should i eat that?" or if i wanna "cheat" i'll just have one bite but make sure it is just one small bite. or, if i know i wanna eat dessert, i'll cut back on my main course and eat the dessert.
