I'm not dieting, but my mom just started one. She got "You on a Diet", she's a week in and already lost 11 pounds :shock:It seems to be working really well for her.

I just had to share because I'm so proud of her! :biggrin2:

You know how every store/brand is sized differently so you could be a size 6 in one store and 10 in another? Am I the only one who is sure to buy whatever brand who gives me the smallest number? I'm usually a 10 but when I went to Kohl's to try on jeans, I walked out when a size 12 was wayyyy too small for me. Meaning if I wanted to buy jeans that fit I would've probably had to buy a 14 or 16. It did bad things for my self esteem...so I went across the street to Barnes and Noble to buy me a frappucino in the connected Starbucks and a book :p

This happens to me ALL the time! Normaly I go in and get a ton of 10s to try on and the last time I walked out with a 12 and I've actually _lost_ weight inbetween these times.. what the heck!! :p Women's clothing manufacturers suck, I swear they're doing it on purpose.. lol. I'm one of those "inbetween" heights, too somehow.. 5'11" so the "longs" are way too long but the regulars are too short. C'est la vie :p

It's a book called "you on a diet" it gives you recipies and what to eat everyday and stuff. I've had some of the recipies and they are pretty good (most of it would be good for your ratties too i think ;)). You can buy it at most book stores, I'm spacing on the authors right now though.

She also stopped drinking alchohol which we think might also be a major factor

I believe that is a Dr. Oz book, heh. Check it out! I love Dr. Oz!:D

Here's a thread, not necessarily what thread is about, but you can search!:D
