Hi...I stumbled upon this site almost a year ago, and at the time I weighed 185 lbs. (i'm about 5'6") At one point in my life, i weighed 219 lbs. It's been awhile since I've been here, but I am happy to say that right now I am 153 lbs. I've been dieting for 6 months, and have lost 30 lbs. That may seem very slow, but I took the month of december off of my diet. I run at 6.2 speed on the treadmill for 30 mins, and walk at 4.0 for another 30 mins 5 days a week. I am still not happy with my body. I eat 1200 - 1400 cals/ day, and I am thinking of cutting carbs to get to my ultimate goal of 130 lbs. Any suggestions?
Reply from Lyndz, Age 17 - 04/22/04 - IP#: 216.114.21.xxx I think I might try the slimfast thing. I have tried it in the past, but never was serious enough about it to make it work. I am scared of the whole adkins idea, because i have heard that it screws up your metabolism, and that you gain weight when you go off it. I also LOVE my cereal and pretzels, so i would probably not stick to it...
Reply from Tara, Age 16 - 04/22/04 - IP#: 205.188.116.xxx I suggest the atkins diet because you get to ate a lot of foods and get statified, but loose more weight than you have before. Also your metabolism is affected and you actually boost it instead of killing it.
