    Biggest roadblock: recovering from an ED (lots of little things). It's tough, but rewarding, to work towards health.

    My biggest roadblock is myself, I tend to get way into my own head and it really ends up hindering me.

    Just for fun: What is your biggest roadblock to losing weight? Getting too comfortable where I am. Right now I am ok with how I look, but I know I can lose this last of weight and tone up. I need to kick it in gear and get this last bit off.

    Just for fun: What is your biggest roadblock to losing weight? Well, this month it will be our 10 day vacation at the lake cabin. I'm taking that week off from my "diet". I plan, of course, to eat as well as possible, but will not be logging calories or cooking any separate meals from the rest of the group, so I'll be eating a lot of big breakfasts (pancakes, french toast, etc.), sandwiches (the bread! the coldcuts!), and hearty dinners (mmmmmm, fresh caught pan-fried walleye!)... so it'll be an interesting month. If not for that vacation, my goal weight would be lower for this month.
