my husband is my greatest hindrance to slimming down,  he is slim fitted and  makes me forget dat am watching my weight. tried running in the morning for a week bt discovered dat no pound was lost.
All i need is to loose 5kg and am patiently wiating 4 a miracle.  
But for me no more sugar, cos it is sweet to eat but difficult to get out

Ok, I made sure I read every comment on this thread before I dropped my comment. I hope this thread Is still active cos I haven't read any comments from 2016.

Well, for me I have been shuttling between 100 n 120kg for some yrs and it hasn't been funny. The funniest thing is, I don't look too fat for my weight but my arms and tummy have enlarged thru d yrs.

Well I have tried d drinking lime/lemon water every morning and it did absolutely noffin for me. I allso tried clean 9 last year jan and lost 13kg after d clean 9 but once I was thru with it I gained even more. Then I discovered something, I wasn't eating and drinking right. I hated sodas only after drinking it, it was an addiction. I hated cooked meals but cld go on and on with biscuits, pastries and all what thrash, then I wld stay all day without eatin and stillll nevr lost a kg.

Then I saw a friend who was size 16 and in less than 3mnths she was a size 8 and I was wowed. Before u begin to judge just read on. She did not take any diet pill, weightlloss cream, chinese herb, on go on any fad diet. She first of all eliminated fizzy drinks, fast foods, and alll other processed foods then she detoxed for two wks by eating only fruits n oil-less veggies. She worked out using shaun T insanity workout CDs and kiera Lashae dance workout CD two hours everyday. After two wks she started eating clean. Brown/ofada rice instead of white rice, wheat bread instead of white or agege bread, minimum of three ltrs of water daily, oats instead of sugary process breakfast cereals, oil less beans with tomato onions n crayfish/fish (yummy). Stew with only a tbsp of extra virgin olive oil, loads of unsweetened fruits like cucumber, grapefruit etc n few sweetened fruits like appple, kiwi, english pear, 1banana, mango, water melon etc (love lÓve love them) and complex carbs for weightlloss llike sweet potatoes instead of yam. Then two to three cups of tea without milk or sugar a day, preferably green tea or oolong tea (great for speeding up metabolism) I actually use a cup 45mins before my workouts and one hour into d workouts I'm not tired yet. Anyway she changed her diet to healthy eating and skipped all the skippables and swapped all d swappables and in three mnths she lost 4dress sizes and got back to her prewedding look and now she's maintaining it by practicing portion control (I use my baby plate to eat my meals now and I find out I'm very full even at dat, what da hellll have I been eating all these yrs) chai! This all happened btw january 7th and march 27th this year for my friend so a day after my bday, on apr 18th I was motivated to tow her line and I'm on my elenth day on d fruits n veggie detox and its been awesome. I statd out as 119kg (oops!) And on d morning of the 8th day even though I was supposed to weigh forthnightly, I was tempted to check my weight and alas, in 7days I have lost 4kg without following it strictly or even exercising at all. Wow! Means we eat and drink a lot of rubbish dat makes us gain weight. Now I'm more motivated and wld add my workouts to it, though I'm a busy bee, always moving, dat allso helps, kip moving and don't just sit ur ass tight in one place. Hmmmm, fingers hurt from typing dis long on bb. Hope someone is motivated now, llets go girls we can do it. My goal is to lose 30kg by december dis year, with the rate I'm going, its gonna b a walk in d park. God helping me. Everything is possible one u can set to heart to it.
