    It's always best to share on here. I find the motivation from other people is great.

    I look in the mirror now and see my mom *sigh*

    Hello All,

    I am from Sudbury but recently moved to Halifax. I too often look in the mirror and think what the?!?! Who is that? What is that? But I have to saw...the 15 lbs that I have lost so far has made me feel the slightliest happier. Looking forward to lose the next 15 and the next 15 after that! One day at a time! Nice to meet you and feel free to add me as a friend if you need motivational buddies!

    Hope you are having a great day!! :flowerforyou:

    Hi,

    I have come in via the iPhone app, this is my first day. I've tried keeping food diaries before, and they have never lasted. This one is so easy to use that it might just be the one to do it for me.
    I too look in the mirror now and see my mother, and remember how she put on a lot of weight around my age.

    So difficult to leave the chocolate alone, but part of the psychology of dieting, as with giving up anything, is to tell yourself that you'll have some later, or tomorrow. Not denying yourself anything, you can eat anything you want. Just by eternally postponing having it you don't feel deprived.

    I'm feeling positive and hoping I'll be posting some weight loss on here in the near future :-)
