[quote=Anonymous]Hi. I was 90 pound over my normal (not skinny) weight when I gave birth to my younger son. After I lost that initial 20 in the first few weeks, I knew that I was going to have to work hard to lose that last 70. In the past 6 years I have lost 60. The first 20 I lost by, wait for it, nutrisystem. I had forgotten how to portion control and that really reset my habits upfront. I did that for 5 months, lost 20 pounds that never came back. Since then I have done a combo of WW (pretty decent), low carb (lost 12 pounds but gained it back, found it to be unsustainable), and tracking on MyFitnessPal. Exercise is intermittent. Definitely agree with smaller goals like 10 pounds, and be okay with coasting along at an interim weight weight for months...or maybe even a year. This is a lifestyle change and you have to learn how to manage. Going for me is slow but steady. I have more to lose but even if I stay where I am it is so much better than 80 pounds ago! Good luck!!![/quote]
