how long did it take you 100plus weight losses to achieve your goal of losing the weight how many months or year???????

How encouraging this thread is! I am 8 weeks out pre and post and have dropped nearly 50 pounds. I am doing 600 to 800 calories a day (water is a hit or miss target on some days). and am swimming an hour 3 times a week. My best holiday wishes to you all. CJay

Delta, is this a real program or what your goal is? I need to start moving soon and I'm not sure where to start. Congrats on the big loss!!!

Yes it is a real program, but I lost the training sheet, Delta, do you have it? I know it was on the coolrunning.com website, but I just looked and I couldn't find it. Can you refresh our memory of how each week goes? I did it awhile back and never could go past the 5th week, however, I saw tremendous progress in just 5 weeks. But for the life of me, I can remember how each week goes!

This is such an excellent program. I recently did my first 5k with a similar training program. It is exhilarating!

Wow! Congrats to those who lost that hundred so fast! that's fantastic!

In a couple of years it won't matter how fast we lost it, just if we kept it off or not. The band has a way of teaching us patience.

it took me about 9 months to lose the first 100.

I will hit my year December 31st and have lost 73 LBS I wish I had lost 100 the first year but I am happy I have lost this much. My goal is 120 so I will be thrilled when I hit 100 mark.
