What do you do when you are just not feeling it?
I don't know why this got into me this week! TOM was last week and I breezed through like a champ. This week has been a struggle to get out of bed and exercise. I've been doing fine with my calories even though that's been hard too. What do you do to break the weight loss blahs?

Wine
I am a culinary hobbiest to the umpteenth degree. It helps a lot because I know how to, and LOVE, to cook healthy meals that taste amazing. However, I was raised to appreciate wine as a food accompaniment. I have eliminated alcohol from my diet, but it has left me wondering if it is at all possible to include a glass of…

Goal Weight
How did you determine your goal weight? Was it by the number, the wardrobe, or when your body stopped losing? What worked for you? I have lost 77 pounds and my weight has been the same for about 3 months now. I haven;t been doing things differently, just not losing. Is this where I am meant to stay?

Emotional Eater
Any ideas for an emotional eater. I am also kind of couch bound at the moment. I have a sprained ankle that I got playing tennis.

Water?
I really didn't drink a lot of water today. I know this will sound silly, but I'm hoping someone has an answer for me. If I drink 60 ounces of water between now 7:00 and 10:00, will it do what it's supposed to and hydrate me and flush out toxins, or will it just give me a belly ache and have me in the bathroom all night?…

Why is this happening?
I weigh everyday, and everyday I've lost exactly 3lbs. What's going on? Isn't this kind of weight loss unheard of? If I keep going at this rate then I'll have lost 84lbs by the end of next month which I'm sure wouldn't be healthy. Is anyone else losing this fast? I'm not even exercising!!!
