I did it my friends, and I couldn't be happier right now. When I started this March, I had zero expectations. I have been living morbidly obese for years now, and I am so so tired of being me. I felt like l I hit a all new low. I weighed the most that I ever weighed. I thought I would cut out processed foods, fast foods, ice cream and popcorn. I vowed to give up bread and sugar for 30 days.
Today is the last day of March. I lost 20 pounds this month. I can not even believe it. What a difference a sugar and bread detox can make. I didn't even think that I could even get through it some days. I did, and I feel better now then I have in the longest time. I am going to continue to not eat the stuff for as long as I can. I am determined to try my best to get this weight off.
Thank you everybody for your continued support. I really truly appreciate all the kind words. Most of you have been with me through this roller coaster. I hope that this time, I can at least get down one hill, and try to climb back up another.

AWESOME!!!! :D
SO proud of you Manda! 20 pounds is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! Well done! Might give the no bread and sugar thing a go!
Wow!! Congratz on the 20 pounds. I thought I had the sugar thing tackled myself by eating clean, but pms set in and Im back to square 1. The bread thing is a little harder because I love my fiber and flax bread. I just dont eat it all the time. Keep up the good work and before you know it you will be lighter and feel so much better!!
That is FANTASTIC!!! I am so proud of you for sticking with it! I can imagine how difficult that must have been at times! It seems like almost everything these days is processed.
Simply counting points just isn't working for me anymore. I'm just not seeing the results on the scale that I need to. My first month back on WW, I only lost 4.6 lbs. Sure, that may be a good number for some people, but considering what I weigh and how much I need to lose, it sucks!
So, I'm considering making some changes to my diet. Not sure yet if I'm willing to completely give up counting points, but I'm considering just changing the foods that I eat.
Thank you for giving me something to think about! And keep up the great job!
Although, I really don't know how you managed to give up ice cream and you own a Baskin-Robbins!?! Talk about willpower!!!! lol
WHOOO HOOOO! That is fanfrigentastic!! SO very happy for you and I know that you worked so hard. Keep on it! :)
