    My job. The hours are terrible, so my sleep and eating schedule varies wildly day to day.

    What is your biggest roadblock to losing weight? Time! I'm working overtime now, so doing 50+ hours a week of work, plus studying, plus just living my life adds up, but now that I've been working out 5 days a week I get antsy if I don't go to the gym, so it's nice to see that it's having a positive affect on my outlook.

    My busy life! I have an hour commute to and from work, love to workout, and my two young boys are super busy, so we eat out waaaay too much. And because I work out, I starting thinking I could add the sugars/potatoes back in. Now I'm up over 10 lbs from my lowest.

    to Nycespyder - I have considered moving this to the groups section, but this one catches so many people that have never been a part of a challenge before that I decided to leave it here. A lot of the other ones are closed groups with specific guidelines to follow and I wanted to keep a nice easy one going.

    Just for fun: What is your biggest roadblock to losing weight? Drinking/wanting to be social and having trouble saying no to alcohol when everyone is drinking. Drinking almost always leads to overeating and I always feel like it undoes the hard work I put in during the week.

    I can't stick with it. I love carbs too much. And I'm always hungry. A piece of bread's going to last me longer than a carrot, so...practical minded me goes for the bread.
