You are such an inspiration to me.  I am just starting on this journey, this is my 3rd. week. i lost weight the first weeek, kept the same the 2nd and now I've lost another 3lbs. It is hard but every time I get discouraged I remind myself this time I can do it.    Reading your post is such an encouragement to stay on track.  Thank You, You have inspired me so much.

Hello and Congratulations!

I just started taking Alli on March 27th and I started Weight Watchers on February 28th, so far I've lost 3 1/2 lbs. I am not happy with the way I've followed the Weight Watcher plan so far because I've been cheating, but since last week I've been more focused on watching my calories and now with Alli my fat grams. I am determined to also start exercising as I desperately want to lose at least 25lbs by June as I am off to Hawaii.

Your story is a big motivation for me. It helps me realize that I can do it and I will lose some weight before my trip and continue to reach my goal weight as you have. Thank you for sharing your story it really helps! 

Congrats on your success.  I started the Alli plan in August '07 and have a few plateaus as you mentioned.  I too find that I much enjoy exercise now versus eating. Once you really start seeing results, your whole attitude changes about food.  I keep remembering two mottos I read about weight loss...you are what you eat AND eat less move more.  These two sayings really keep me focused.
