Does anyone who weighs in every single day see results that
I'm not trying to be negative here. I have just found that for myself personally weighing every single day got me down and out about not losing on a daily basis.

Blogging about your loss?
No idea how to classify this... But do you think blogging could help motivate you? I consider doing a once a day blog about my eating and how I feel ,mostly for me, but then I think well what if someone I know saw this! It's strange how ashamed you can feel of letting yourself gain the weight. :/ However, writing really…

Good vs Bad Foods
Even when you stay within your calorie limit, do you still find that WHAT you eat makes a difference in how much or how quickly you lose weight? I'm trying to eat as much whole grains, fruits and vegetables as I can. But tonight my husband wants a french bread pizza.. it's 360 for one, so I thought we could each have one.…

College Students / Beer
For all the college students out there. In the time off from classes (between terms) I really don't drink much beer. I enjoy the time off and just relax, sans alcohol. Once classes get started: mid-terms, projects, papers etc. it is so nice to settle in for a long night of studying/ homework with some beer. I work full…

Ate well/exercised and the scale didn't budge!!!!!!!!!
I weighed in this AM to see the scale actually went up a few ounces! It was discouraged and almost ready to stuff a burger with extra cheese and a side of fries down my throat, but when I thought about it I think it was because I worked out a lot and actually went under the 1200 calories and maybe my body thought it was…
