Everybody faces problems during weight losing. My biggest obstruction is my sitting job and colleagues who are trying to put on weight. I cant escape any of them.

I wonder how others are facing problems in loosing weight and any solutions if they have overcome from them.

    For me, it's my mental game. The feeling or thoughts of not wanting to go to the gym today or I am not seeing enough progress fast enough. My mental game is 90% of my battle.

    I agree with this! If I don't see as much progress as I expected, it's all downhill form there. That is why I try and only weigh once a week

    The fact that I love "flavor" I love having the taste of certain foods left in my mouth. Problem is it doesn't last, so I have to eat more to maintain it.

    Where I work, we have transitional workstations as well as treadmills set up like desks where we can plug in our laptops and work while walking...

    Something I've always wondered about this...Are you allowed to wear workout clothes then? Or do I have to walk in a blouse and dress slacks?

    Plus heels, some require heels; for their female employees!

    Yet heels were originally intended, for working men!

    My biggest obstacle is not being consistent with my eating schedule and not tracking my food..Buying this app has made my life so much easier already in just 1 day

    Fighting my own thoughts. I have only been tracking for 10 days (this time around) yet there's a voice in my head saying "just eat more - this isn't working - you're not making progress anyway - who cares?!"

    Telling that voice to shut up and sit down is the hardest thing ever - it has won many times in the last 3 years. I can't let it win again.

    Wine, rum, and my desire to sit and drink wine and rum instead of exercising.

    Being in a household where takeout and sweet food (cookies, doughnuts, etc) is the norm, and I'm the only one who cleans up the kitchen enough to cook decent, healthy meals. My parents raised me with the idea that I should help out, but I feel like the roles are switched now. They're the children who use every excuse in the book not to help (no energy, Facebook is more fun), and I'm the freaking grownup.

    Anyone else have this problem? :expressionless::/

    Mine is my sweet tooth and wine. I definitely gain weight when have too much carbs and sugar and notice weight loss when I cut down on both. I try to limit myself to 1 glass of wine a day, sugar-free mints to curb the sweet tooth and allow myself one cheat day a week. It seems to help.
