But the idea of doing just that, brings tears to my eyes, knowing if i can do this for myself, I can do more hard things in life with confidence. Today was a low day. Then I just kept at myself, that I could do it, and found faith.…

Weight chart is a bummer.
The weight chart could be SO much more of a motivator if it had more satisfying looking change. It's a big thing to lose a pound! It should look like it on the chart. It looks like hardly any progress

Help me
I am struggling to have one day where I don’t eat my body weight in junk food. I was fine until I went on holiday and now I can’t get back on track. I have spent most of this week beating myself up, full of self loathing and I’m annoyed at myself for feeling the way I do and for having no self control!!

10kg down... So much more to go
Anyone else reach that first milestone only to realise there's so much more to go? Like this week I weighed in at under 100kg after around 2.5 months, meaning I've lost over 10kg. I'm definitely proud of myself. I never want to be over 100kg again if I can help it. It's just when I realise that I've got another 25-30 to…

Vshred
I did it. I ordered the 90day program for $59. If anything, it’s motivation. I was disappointed when ordering that all these other videos kept popping up for additional products. It made it feel very scammy. I will do the 90 days. My weight is fine. I just want to lose the stubborn fat and become more defined. I’m half way…

MFP Fitspiration!
There has been a lengthy thread about fitspo and how it uses unrealistic photoshopped people, and often supports unsafe practices (pushing until it's unhealthy). One of the things that came out of it was the idea that we, the people of MFP, should create our OWN fitspos... made with unvarnished pics, and our own sayings...…
