I hear ya LOL... i hate riding uphill!! Good thing about this place, its all sooooooooooo flat LOL - riding over a bridge ahhhhh no that wont happen, uhm... i'll probably dump the bike in the water and walk the rest of the way LOL

I actually knew a guy that did dump hes bike in the canal while riding uphill over the bridge, there was a lot of wind, he was having a bad day, and was so fedup, he threw hes bike over the railing LOL

Hi Ladies, I would like to join this thread.

I started dieting with the group on YT that did the lemonade diet. It lasted 2 weeks for me, then I got sick. But I worked really hard to chnge my eating habits and was doing really well until I had surgery on my elbow 4 weeks ago. I had lost 24 lbs. My goal is 50 lbs, by my birthday in July.

If I hit my goal, I promissed myself I would get a boob job. I have been very heavy chested since I was 11.

Since, my arm is finally getting better, I need to get back with the program. I have 25 lbs to go and 3 months to do it.

I would appreciate any help I can get.

Ok......A lemonade diet? I've never heard of a lemonade diet. Tell me about it.

Here is the link. It is a cleanse, that helps to rid your body of toxins. Unfournately, I got a kidney infection while doing it.

But you use herbal tea to get things moving in the morning, and you drink 8-10 glasses of lemonade(fresh), cayenne(sp) pepper and grade b maple syrup. It really is tasty if you like lemonaide.

Here is a link with a pdf about it.

I wonder if anyone else on here has tried it, and if it really works?

I don't see how that lemondade diet could be healthy for you at all. I would think if you wanted a good cleanse drinking plenty of water could do the trick. I've been trying to follow my own type of diet.

I've just been following the WW idea of portion control. I've been eating whatever I want but in the correct portions. I also do no snacking after 7:00 PM and I cut out all pop, and white stuff. I've lost 20 lbs and I'm kind of stuck right now and have been for awhile. I haven't been exercising and I think that has a lot to do with it. Once I'm able to get out and do more I'm sure it will come off again. I've just told everyone that I'm not in any hurry this time.....at all!! All the other diets I have tried in my lifetime worked great, but the lbs came back just as soon as I quit the diet. Not going to happen this time.

I'm so sorry you got sick.

I think Weight Watchers is (lol, was) really working for me. They use this point system based on calories, fat content, and fiber. I signed up for the cheapest monthly program and it includes their online etools, so it's a cinch to enter info, and you get to record your diet and activities on the online journal. (www.weightwatchers.com). I've lost 26, but still have 45 more to go. It's great that you're halfway there, and I know you'll be able to do it by July. If we were on the same side of town; I'd suggest we start meeting for walks.

Good luck, and I know you can do it!
