(psssst) Look...it's the "new girl"
Yo. :) I am trying this out for the first time after hearing a success story from a co-worker. Currently the hand-held journal I am keeping has been successful at nothing beyond containing written documentation of every time I've screwed up and given in to cravings. It's a neatly-lined and doodled-upon graveyeard of my…

Introduce Yourself
I am ready!! I have been the classic "Yo-Yo" dieter pretty much my entire life. Able to lose tremendous amounts of weight on other programs really quickly (but never quite seem to sustain through a Maintenance Phase), this will be my first (and planning to be final) time to lose weight "One Pound at a Time - one pound per…

New to The Site.
I have been dealing with weight issues every since my injury 4 years ago. I remember the day when I was in the military and I couldn't even gain a pound of fat.

Back to trying again
Hi there, I am back after quite a few months of just having given up. Good news is that I haven't gained any weight since then-bad news is that I haven't maintained any weight loss either.

At my heaviest weight after my second child was one…
