Well, I'm going to start (again) to be healthy & get some weight off. I've lost 10 lbs twice on the Zone(stopping once because I got pregnant and the other time from abdominal pain from an ovarian cysts) so I know it can work for me. This feels like such a huge task because I've never reached a goal weight (although I've been at a goal weight before), and because it was one issue that I got verbally 'beat up' over while growing up. I never feel like I've "done it". So what motivated you? What kept you going? How did you get over setbacks or "bad days"? Also, constipation is not a fun problem, no matter how much water I drink (and I take 3000mg of fish oil a day). I gravitate to the bad carbs to get relief. Any suggestions? Supplements (metamucil? benefiber? other?) If it last longer than a month, what does that say about my system? I am working with a doctor to see if there is another cause. I'd appreciate all advice. Thanks.

Cruise the forums and read stuff! There's a thread telling how probiotics solved someone's constipation fast.
Also there is a testamonials link on the right......Sue's story is amazing......and yes, this forum helps to keep you motivated! All of us are serious about this program. I like the seven day meal plan under "helpful tools", and smoothies make my day! Here's wishing you the best of luck!
