I am losing right now by counting calories and making sure I get protein every 3 hours. I try not to go over 1200 calories per day now. I have a 291 protein shake in the morning or a 3 egg omelette that has onion, mushroom and peppers in it and a little bit of low fat cheese.(this too is about 290 calories) Then a protein bar for snack time... followed by a chef salad for lunch and then a hard boiled egg for afternoon snack and for supper I have either another chef salad or a stir fry. I am cutting out high fat, breads, rice, potatoes and sugar. I drink lots of earl gray tea or club soda with fresh lime. I have energy and feel good about what I'm doing. I am not exercising much though...I'll increase that in a bit . LOL Anyways I have dropped a few pound this week and have noticed my jeans are fitting a lot better. I was 238 when I started on here a few weeks ago and now I am 229.5. I have a lot to lose but just remember that old saying. "How do you eat an elephant? ....one bite at a time!" LOL. GOOD LUCK to you all in your weight loss journey!
229.0 lb Lost so far: 0 lb.    Still to go: 49.0 lb.    Diet followed N/A.

I'm counting calories and trying to eat l/f. I think the protein you're doing is the key. Protein takes longer to burn, so you don't get hungry as fast. I'm not dropping weight as fast as last time, but I know that's due to exercise.

Awesome! Losing the bread, rice, potatoes, and sugar helps me to feel great!

I'm using Atkins so I'm eating lots of protein and veggies and even fat. Lost 18 pounds since I started Feb 18th. Happy with results, as you are with yours. And that's the whole point, right? If it works, it's all good. Good luck to you too.
