I applaud your methods and am in the same boat as you. I am all about small changes as well…longevity is key right?? I mean if you lose 100 lbs in one month what are the chances that you will keep it off. I do have another tip that helped me in the very beginning of my personal weight loss plan…

I used dessert plates for my dinner plates. It was an easy way to control portion size…oh by the way…no “seconds”.
Not sure where you are with this because I see that the original post was in January but your efforts no matter how small are never a waste! Good luck!

I'm just in chapter 3 of The Spark, but I really like it. It's not a traditional diet book at all. It's much more about lifestyle choices. Good stuff.

Good luck to you, too! We can certainly work together over the coming year. We can do it!

That is a huge accomplishment, to be in your third trimester and still below your previous weight. Way to go!

I overeat, too. I know exactly what you mean – it's so hard! I overeat even when it's not a food that I enjoy. How did you learn not to eat too much?

There are a couple of things I'm really looking forward to. The first one is buying a pair of knee boots. Isn't that odd? Another is fitting into certain outfits. Being able to use the WiiFit. There's something else, too… I can't remember what it is.

I'm so glad you told me that you're on SP. I found you!

Working out together has made a big difference for us, too. Keep at it! The weight loss will come.

Beth - I agree that it's not like a traditional diet book. I, too, rolled my eyes when I first got an email about it. But the more I read about it from different sources, I thought it was worth a try.

I weaned off pop, too. I really wanted one this afternoon, but I abstained. I really wanted it. Badly. I'm glad I didn't have it, though.

Have you mailed the form for the 5k? That's a fabulous goal!
