What I don't get is, why is it wrong? I'm not starving myself by any means, I just substituted foods. For example, instead of eating a greasy burger and fries, I'm eating a grilled chicken sandwhich and a side salad. Instead of eating ice cream for dessert, I'm eating fruit or sugarless popsicles.

So, I'm at a crossroads, so to speak. I really need to find a nutrionist to talk with so I can get on the right track. But as far as food goes, It's been good cutting out the sweets and stuff. It does kind of suck at times, because sometimes you just want a slice of pizza or a burger, but there is a lot of good healthy food to be had out there.

But working out is going really well, doing the elyptical machine and hitting the weights daily. It's been feeling really good to get out there and do it, be active, etc.

How about anybody else? This thread kinda died out minus Sassy and I.

Have you calculated you body mass index? Just google it and figure out where you are at. Also try this, http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/cal...ulator/NU00598, and find out what your calorie intake needs to be to stay where your at. Cut back from there to lose weight. This is all stuff my doctor has showed me.
