19 lbs in 2.5 weeks? Hmm.. I would say that is not a realistic goal for May. If you started phase one today/tomorrow, you can lose quite a bit, but not sure it's safe to say nearly 20 lbs. 50 lbs in 6 months would be a great ordeal to over come. Maybe you explain a bit more time may be needed? He wouldn't really make you give up a dog after having it for over 3 months, now... would he?? :) Good luck and if you really want it... you can HAVE IT!

I agree. Not to burst your bubble, but 19 lbs in 2.5 weeks seems a bit much. I would shoot for around 8 lbs a month. that would be the healthiest rate of weight loss. I too have a goal for August. My husbands 10 year reunion! UGH!!! I want to lose 30 lbs by then and that may be pushing it too. Let's go girl!!

About the creamer...I stopped using creamer when I started SBD and started using skim milk. This was the ONLY way I could do it. Cold turkey, lol! I have seen other SB Dieters using nonfat evaporated milk and it tends to be creamier than milk. I also use sugar free flavored syrups or flavored coffees to taste like my creamer that I loved. And I too had scheduled *cheat days* to only get there and stay right on track! I'm sure you will do the same. Sometimes one day isn't worth all the sacrificing to get to that day! Good luck - you can do it!!

Thank you all for your support!! Alot of the weight is water weight from cheating the past two weeks. I usually loose about 1 lbs to 2 lbs a day for the first two weeks and thats not because im starving myself or anything.
I dont really care how long it takes as long as its GONE!
I dont think my hubby would make me give her up ( and i wouldnt either) but its kinda like " ill let you keep her as a reward for.."
kinda thing. Im one stubburn girl and i usually get my way when it comes to animals.
Im DYING to know how much i will weight on Monday since i havent weighed my self since last mon. I hope it says 30 lbs!! (just kidding)That has been a big struggle for me too, as much as not eating crap. Its like when i wake up i think " ugh i dont want to get up... oh wait..... i wonder how much i weigh??"
Silly huh?
