Struggling?

Sometimes when you think no one cares, and you feel like you are in this alone, and you know that you need to do this, but can't seem to get your mojo back, you just need a friend. Someone that is going to make you accountable. We all have life struggles from time to time. We get lost in the day to day grind. We think if we don't actually account for it, then it doesn't count. I will tell you, from my experience, I just wanted someone to care. I just wanted someone to tell me, it's ok, move on....now what's your problem?
Most of us are here for one thing, to lose weight. To do this, we need to set a goal for ourselves, set challenges. The first few weeks are the hardest. We need someone cheering us on when we are doing good. We need someone to lift us up when we ate the whole bag of chips, or the 1/2 pan of brownies, but we also need to be reminded how much harder we are making it for ourselves when we do this. Foods like that usually activate that little voice that says, I've failed, I can't do this......
But this group is here for you! We are here to lift each other up. Hold each other accountable. Open your food journal up so everyone can see. We are here for pure honesty. Be honest to your buddies, but most importantly, be honest to yourself!
