Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Oh how I remember that little push to get those last 2-3 pounds off. It sucks! Just keep plugging away, up your water intake (if you can), and don't go too crazy with the workouts. Make sure you are eating at least 1200 calories a day, drink 8-12 glasses of water a day, and try not to stress (because then we tend to not lose weight). It'll happen if it is suppose to happen...just believe that (I know, I know...easier said than done). Big hugs to you and lots of positive thoughts!

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 : I know you can do it. The thing is, you know you can do it too. You just need a little reminder. We all get down on ourselves, but don't give up. You're almost there. Like you said, you can almost taste it! Turn around the negative self talk, and make it positive. It takes practice, but you are up to the challenge. Keep on saying, " I know I can do this. " Don't beat yourself up! You will succeed when you believe that you can. Keep doing what you're doing and you will lose those three pounds and MORE! Keep us updated on your progress. Happy thoughts! Happy thoughts!

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 I agree with the others. . . Don't stress too much. There's lots of little things you can do. First, don't starve yourself. Make sure you eat enough to fuel your body because if you don't, your body will try to hold on to the fat. Second, exercising more than once a day is OK. Actually, you can do little steps. Taking a 5 minute walk several times a day. Go the long way around the office to get to where you're going, park farther from the door to walk a little further, etc. Also, it has been noticed that if you simply stand up more often, that can burn calories. Drink as much water as you can. That will flush the fat out, plus provide a little more exercise each time you have to " run " to the potty (LOL!). Also, if you want to watch a movie or TV, try standing and just moving around while the show is on, that's a little movement that just can't hurt. I have an exercise bike set up in my bedroom where I have a TV. The bonus about that is I exercise (instead of sitting around) while watching TV, plus it's far away from the kitchen and the food! Good luck on your weight loss . . . I know you'll make it. Hugs, Sandi H. These are little things that I've done that have helped me. > > I'm stressing soo bad over the 3 lbs I have to loose.
