Giving It Another Go
Greetings! I am a 26 yr old bride-to-be (getting married this October) who has difficulty maintaining high levels of motivation. Some months I am great with exercising and healthy eating. During those other months, however, I am lucky if I see the gym or walk away from a plate of pizza. Since 2007, I have managed to lose…

New to this site
Okay....so I thought I would give this format a go. I have tried every "diet" known to man, it seems, but I can never really find a way to stick with anything (I even underwent weight loss surgery in 2001), so I thought, maybe, if I had almost half a million people urging me on, I could do this one. Ha! My biggest problem,…
