    I get ticked off when I'm the 'fat friend' watching what I eat when my metabolically blessed friends can eat whatever they want in copious amounts.

    I get ticked when I have a GREAT diet day then go home and eat the whole fridge.

    I get ticked when I feel like losing 5 lbs makes no difference, but gaining 2 makes me feel like a whale.

    Yeah!

    1. I hate losing weight and you feel good but NO ONE notices. It feels all for not.
    2. Still having the one pair of jeans that doesn't button
    3. Having to say no to seconds, wine, dessert, appetizers, etc.. when out with friends
    4. I coach high school boys aau basketball so I am surrounded by people eating what ever they want when they want and having six packs.
    5. I hate trying really hard in the gym and still stuck in a rut,.

    I agree with everyone comments. My weight lost kind of plateau, one step to the right direction for weight lose and then two steps to another direction weight gain. The "muffin top" is never seems to want to leave. :sad:

    The process of losing weight is frustrating, especially when I've hit a plateau like I so often seem to (lose a few-plateau for a month or more, repeat). But I can't say it ticks me off particularly. It worries me when people say how good I look. What was I before, chopped liver? But what really annoys me, and probably it's the relationship more than anything, is when my 95-year-old mother-in-law brags that she can eat anything because she has never had a problem with her weight. She does this once or twice a week, has only done it since I started my weight loss process, and lives with me to boot. And no, there is no talking to her...she has dementia. I must be patient!

    All of the above plus
    1. The constant battle with the inner demon that encourages me to eat for comfort, questions my ability to stick to a healthy eating and exercise plan. Failed many times before so why should this be any different.....
    2. It's oh so slow, when you have a lot to lose it means a long term goal to achieve the target, in my case a minimum of a year
    3. Everyone is an expert on what you should be doing and if they see you eat a "treat" they are quick to pick you up on it
    4. Alternately the enablers that try to break you with "go on one won't hurt you"
    5. Weight loss industry in general as they are all designed to keep you paying out for their product

    It ticks me off because I want to eat all the Peanut Butter Tims Tams and I can't. :(

    My friend brought some TimTams over when she visited last year and I loved them. I'm glad she didn't bring peanut butter ones as I think I would be constantly emailing her and asking her to ship some over!

    I hate counting calories.

    YES. I biked today so I knew I could order whatever I wanted so I got my usuals (frappucino, wahtever burger, fries, etc.) and although today I'm under calories it made me so sad to see how much it was normally :cry: And to think I'll have to do this for at least a year, if not more if I turn out to be one of those people who can't maintain without counting!
