    Hey Jim awesome result .2 off onederland, you'll easily do it this week, don't beat yourself up over the mindless eating, think of it in a positive way 1. You realize your doing it 2. Your trying to figure it out 3. Last week 12 rice cakes this week a lot less so that's an achievement 4. Your still losing weight

    Jim your doing so well you deserve every loss keep up the good work

    @andysport1 Thanks.

    I am still surprised and disappointed when I fall back into bad habits. But it reminds me that there is no Finish Line.

    I hope to report a loss next WI that puts me in Onederland. I really don't remember when I went over 200#.
    I weighed 185 in High School, 51 years ago. I'm guessing I gained at least 15# during college, so I was first over 200 in 1970.
    I remember losing 80# on WW in 1987, I got down to 202. But I quit and gained it back. My lifetime of losing/gaining weight has come to an end with finally adapting to a new Lifestyle instead of dieting to lose X pounds.

    Look at it as a positive you no you have it in you to do it youll get there in no time at all add me on MFP if you like

    Hi, just seen this! Didn't do anything but get heavier until beginning of August but on a mission now!

    Starting weight: 116kgs
    Goal weight: under 90 kgs
    Current weight: 106.2kgs
    Total weight lost: 9.8kgs
    This week's successes: 1kg loss, upped exercise
    This week's challenges: hungry all the time! The mire exercise I do the more I need to eat.
    (2.2lbs = 1kg)

    Hope it's OK to join in this late in the year!

    Try suppliment glucomanan helps curb hunger and is very cheap also try if you are having fruit to have a handful of nuts with it because the protein will make u feel fuller for longer hope this helps
