edited February 3 in Motivation and Support
I have been having a really hard time staying on track for the past 2 weeks.
I'm looking for a friend, not just someone who says hey every so often, but someone who will really help me stay on track, someone who I can confide in when i'm having a really tough time. I can be the same for you as well.
I'm tired of going at it alone.
If i leave myself to my own will, I have often been noticing, i'll tell myself...'that wont hurt' or 'this one meal wont throw me off' but it's becoming a habit and i really need to get in high spirit again,
I need friends!!

    I need some help too as far as being accountable. I just joined a gym, and need to get there at least 3 time a week for 3 months in order to earn my enrollment fee back. Everyone on this thread feel free to add me as a friend, and let's get in this together! :-)

    You can add me if you would like to. I am on every day (well, 99.9%) ;) and would love to help motivate you. One thing that works really well for me is something that I saw on Pinterest. It was a quote

    "FEEL A BINGE COMING ON? COUNT SLOWLY TO 100 - TAKE A SIP OF WATER BETWEEN EACH NUMBER"

    I have this printed out and by my desk at work and it seriously does help. I have done it several times when I feel like running to the vending machine. I grab water instead and start counting. :)
