Same song second verse

Really tired of not sticking to any weightloss plans. With 2 jobs, 3 babies and a tight budget I'm full of excuses and continue to emotionally eat.

vent over :'(

    Well it appears that you're getting plenty of activity during the day, so the problem is food and drink consumption.

    Weight loss is simple math, calories in versus calories out, simply meaning eat less, move more. I imagine with 3 kids and two jobs the movement part is already taken care of.

    Eliminate the word diet from your vocabulary. It is a very scary word, and to most it means temporary suffering to reach an end goal weight that doesn't last long. It means eliminating foods that you like, and going to food that typically you don't like. Don't do that, it is a "recipe" for failure.

    It's all about portion control. Two pieces of bread turn into one, a piece of cake is now a sliver, etc. etc. No second helpings, limit your snacking, make healthier snack choices, etc etc. and you'll get there.
