I have been on here for a few months, and been successful. BUT I became obsessed with counting calories. It became very annoying to everyone around me, and myself. I have, in the last couple of weeks, decided to chill. I got a pinched nerve in my back while exercising. I could hardly move, without pain. So exercise was out of the question for about five days. I ate what I wanted (which has changed drastically), and did not gain. Last week I started taebo (alot easier on my back than insanity), and didn't worry so much about what I ate. Today I am down a pound. Not alot, but its less than I was last week. I am feeling good about myself, and not being so strict about diet. This has made me and the people around me much happier. Everyday I remind myself that this is not a diet! I am just making better choices. I have struggled with my weight my whole life. Starving myself, or low carb and alway failed. I think this is the longest that I have continuously lost weight, and I honestly know that I can continue.
Thanks MFP!
