34 year old female....looking for someone to go through this with!

I too need someone to offer a little help and motivation.  I have done a lot of diets also and know what it feels like to be starting over.  This is my first day, so I am just getting started. I would like to lose 43 lbs by my 33rd birthday in December and also run a 5k by then. I had a little headache this morning, but I think its because I'm sleep-deprived because my son is sick, so I hope that doesn't mess me up. How are you doing?

I am a 37 year old mother of a 4 and 8 year old. Have been on phase 1 for a week now . Feeling a little tired today probably because the lack of sugars.  A 11 days before I started this diet I was on a diet called "diet for idots" I lost 8 pounds.  I have only lost 2 pounds the first week of phase one I think it is because the 11 day diet before this one kind of dose the samething getting your body in a better metabolism . How long have you been doing this diet.  14 pounds is a lot.  I just want to lose 20 more and then watch my habits. 

I started this this week and have had a couple of screw ups. I have my husband doing it to
but it is hard so if you are still looking for a buddy I could your support to.
