Thanks to the help of some chia seeds and meat grossing me out, I've lost 4 pounds!
I woke up this morning at my first prenatal visit weight! (at 6 weeks). 7 pounds to go and I'll be back to pre-wedding.
Finally. I never thought this day would come.

Yay! I had lost 2 lbs... but we baked lots of Christmas cookies yesterday (we baked from 10 am-430 pm) so of course I had to taste them! And of course I decided against weighing myself today ...

haha, congrats! Weight loss is sooooooo hard (at least for me), so I'm always impressed when people do well. Good luck with the rest of it!

@artbee: HAHA. good for you! I doubt you gained all the weight back from eating cookies! 
@Adira: Thanks! Try Chia seeds if you need some help losing weight!

@Andrea: I haven't been eating them. My gag reflex gets in the way.

@artbee: i saw someone suggested soaking them overnight so that removes the crunchiness. i haven't tried them yet so i don't know how gross they are but they sound pretty gross!

@Andrea: @artbee: Ive been lazy and stopped taking them! Weight has plateau'd .. Gonna take a shot right now!

@chopsuey119: How much do you have of the chia seeds daily? I was adding some to my sugarfree limeade and I liked them but I didn't really see any difference diet-wise.

@sloaneandpuffy: I have 2 tablespoons a day. Once in the am and once in the pm. It really helps curb my late night munchies.

@Andrea: Only 4.. Now that all of my jeans and most of my tops fit I got lazy about them chias. Just took a shot. Wanna drop 3lbs before we head to TX in 2 weeks.
We eat nonstop whenever we're at the inlaws' so I need to lose a little so I can gain it back.

congrats! i tell so many people, i lost 10 pounds in a month in hs because i had some herbalife shake and grapefruit in the morning!

@chopsuey119: i always say that i gain weight just by breathing. i eat pretty well and exercise. i don't drink. i just have no metabolism i guess. i will try these chia seeds anyway, thanks!

@tequiero21: that is awesome but i tried herbalife when i was about 21. didn't lose anything. =(

@Andrea: maybe it was the grapefruit i ate before it that helped herbalife work? i was really determined to lose weight and i didn't change anything other than those 2. with herbalife (and i didn't get this), it said to take a certain amount to lose weight and a certain amount to GAIN weight. that was weird!

@tequiero21: i remember taking a whole bunch of herbalife pills, too, in addition to that shake. it was a ton of pills to swallow so it was a lot of work! it was also pricey so not great that it didn't work for me.

@Andrea: i don't think pills work. i tried stacker 2. it just made me jittery - like i was on major caffeine.

@tequiero21: i tried xenadrine before they took out the bad stuff. it made me jittery but then i got used to them. i did a low carb diet while taking those pills and i lost a ton of weight but maybe i would have anyway since i was on low carb.
