100+ lbs to lose

07/23/2016 7:06PM

Hello everyone, I'm new to diet bet! I'm starting a Jump start on Monday and Transformer on Tuesday. Hoping the first one helps me get started and the other one helps me keep going with it. I'm about 42lbs down from my highest weight, but have about another 112lbs to go to get to my goal weight...not sure if that will be a good weight though, might still have 20-30more to go after that. Just working on getting to the next pound lower, pound by pound. What do you guys use for diet? I don't like the idea of eliminating something entirely...trying to do calorie counting, portion control, mild exercise. What works for you? How do you keep motivated on such a long journey?

I'm eating low G.I. and low carb to help with lowering my blood sugar (yes, I have diabetes) and weight. Low carb seems to work for me. As for exercise I have a back injury and walking is all I can manage so my dog is reaping the benefits of more frequent walks. There are days where I've had to take it one day at a time; heck, even one hr at a time. That's awesome you're starting a Transformer. I'm in 2 right now and they're actually one of the reasons I keep motivated. I love the weekly official weigh ins. They keep me on top of my food intake and activity. I've found 4 weeks too long to go without an official weigh in and lost focus easily. Now that I'm in Transformers I hope it will help me in this Kickstarter.
