I have a stubborn ten pounds that I need to get off of my body.

I have started MFP, lost motivation, stopped logging food, stopped exercising, started feeling bad about myself, ate some more, lounged some more, and then started MFP again. This cycle repeats over and over again.

This time though, I am really going to do it. I am going to make good food choices. I am going to log everything I put in my mouth. I am going to exercise regularly. I am going to lose these last ten pounds.

I think that by putting it in writing, I will be much more likely to do this the right way. I have done this before without any community support, but this time I am looking for some friends and hopefully we can lose the weight together!

    you sound serious. will you post everyday? be honest? you're younger than me and only need to lose 10. I want to lose 20, but am equally serious about this time working. I'll stick with you through your 10 pound weight loss. You keep me honest, I'll keep you honest. What do you think??? are you a worthy challenger?

    I am trying my absolute hardest this time around to make good choices for myself. I have a killer sweet tooth and am easily derailed, so I hope that by increasing my accountability, it will force me to think really hard about whether or not I want that cookie, candy, chocolate, or whatever else. I absolutely want to lose these 10 pounds so that I feel confident with how I look again.

    I have been exactly where you are at! I can't even begin to tell you how many times I started over again. You can do it and thank you for sharing because to be quite honest I still struggle with what I put in my mouth. I need someone to keep me accountable too It can be hard to do it alone. If you want feel free to send me a request.
