For me it always seems like I can stick to my planned out meals during the weekdays but weekends I feel the urge to just do what I want. I try to plan foods for the weekend, but I just eat something else and then I just feel like I ruined the day and then do whatever. Then during the weekdays im fine. What does everyone do…

CHANGE THROUGH LOVE, NOT HATE
Hi all- I notice a continuing trend in a lot of people who struggle to lose weight where what triggers us to lose weight in the first place is something negative like hating how we look or how we feel. We use terms like loathing and frustration and disgust and a million other words that fill our thoughts. These thoughts, I…

A new goal to spice things up a bit!
For the last couple weeks my workouts have been, eh, stagnating a bit. I've been tired and stressed and losing sight of my specific goals, and really losing my excitement about reaching them. Plus my bf and I haven't really been able to spend much quality time together, and we've been grumping lately. Anyway, I was at work…

Feeling a bit disheartened today. Weighed in yesterday and had lost 3lb over the week, brilliant stuff...........this morning, I don't know why, but I decided to weigh again, just to check (and see the 3lb loss again) but to my horror, I was back to the original weight of the week before, I had lost nothing. Why does this…

I need some honesty...
So, against my better judgement, and after NUMEROUS people told me yesterday NOT to do it, I got on the scale this morning. Can someone please tell me how after walking 4 miles, an hour long Body Pump class, and 30 minutes on the elliptical I gained another pound? I've gained 3 pounds since Monday, and I've been working…

Yep so after posting about my relationship yesterday, I had a long talk with him on the phone and pretty much broke up.
