Wow!!!! 5 Days on the plan and 5.6 lbs down !!! Can’t believe it – I have never started losing weight so soon on ANY diet ever before! And this is with no exercise until yesterday due to being very ill with my breathing. Also I am inactive most of the time due to disability, I have a false leg but can’t use it that much so am in and out of the wheelchair through the day, and have very limited time I can be up on the leg. So if this is with virtually no exercise all I can say is I am absolutely stunned – and thanks to the Trimdown Team! What’s more I am really enjoying the 6 meals a day plan – it is the first time I have eaten so regularly like this, I am hardly hungry at all! My brain can’t quite process yet that I’m eating what feels like a lot and losing so much weight! Over the last 24hrs I lost 1.8 lbs ! Good luck all. Big smiles.
I started my new way of eating Jan 1 and have lost 8 lb so far, I don’t feel hungry now, and my mood has improved 100%. Thank you, thank you for providing these great tools to get our health under control!!! I was trapped in the sugar merry go round, I ate healthy foods, just not enough of them, and felt hungry all the time despite filling up on empty calories. Now I can hardly eat everything on my menus and I am still loosing weight!
I am overwhelmed by all the food you have to buy. I am by myself and I don’t know if I have enough room in my frig or pantry to place all these items in order to make these recipes. In put from someone would be helpful about now.
Colbalt2727—-you might want to try buying just three or four days worth of food at a time and then add more as you need it….and by doing it this way, your food is always fresh, and saves you room in fridge and pantry….just a thought.
Just about to start. I love reading the success stories. They are so inspiring! Keep up the great work everyone, and wish me luck as I take this adventure with my 4 adopted girls and 1 hub!!!!
Welcome aboard! This is a great plan. It may seem a little overwhelming at first, but the best suggestion anyone can give is read, read, read. This site is full of great information in the articles, community threads and recent studies. Be sure to look through the FAQ’s also.
I am on day on day 7 now, weighed on day 5 just because I couldn’t wait after hearing such great things others were saying, and I had lost 4.5 pounds!Be encouraged,
DoryssHi Jen and welcome. I don’t remember which one, but I read in one of the threads that they do not have a way to generate a shopping list yet but are working on an app for that.
Someone else suggested listing all of your items in a program like excel and then having it alphabetize them so you can add up the total amount needed of the items that are repeated throughout the week.
Hope that helps
DoryAnother success story!
One week and down 6.4 lbs! I didn’t even eat all the “weird” foods that were suggested. I just was very aware of what I was eating, when I was eating it and kept track – most days. These were all needed steps to weight loss!to mkoch
Not sure what yu mean. what are yu having trouble with? I suggest getting a menu and then substituting what you won’t eat or don’t like. The biggest thing about weight loss is one has to make a “lifestyle” change. IF you cna’t live with the change yu won’t continue. so — decide what you can do and start with small steps. Eating 5 smaller meals/day is a good start. Eating healthier choices, more veggies and fruit. Tracking what you eat and when. This is a good site, even if all the foods are not what one would choose. chin up, you CAN do this and there is soo much help out there keep asking questions and just start – that is the first step!Hi Just started today and hopeful that I will have a weight loss by next week and feel good! Going shopping with my food list to the health store Raw cheese is that any cheese that is not processed? Anyone know
