    Do you have any of your clothes from before you started? I kept one outfit, that way if I got really bummed I could put them on and see the progress!
  • yes, i have all my clothing, they still fit the same, i havent had to buy anything new yet or go down a size

    Do not put yourself down Krista. Remember, we don't always see that we've lost weight, even when we know we have. I've dropped 74lb and 2 dress sizes, I still don't see that I've lost any weight when I look at myself, but I know that I have because of the weight I've lost and the change in dress size. THat being said, my dress size has only recently changed after losing so much weight. Persevere! How about before and after photos? It's all to do with how we percieve ourselves. How about family and friends? Has anyone commented that you've lost weight? As long as you feel happy with your progress, don't worry x
  • I get what you mean...
    I lost over 40 pounds and still had to TELL people I had lost weight... Just keep it up and remember even one pound down means one pound healthier!

    hey!

    i've been here for a long time but just now starting back into it. Most of the friends I had on here forever ago aren't active any more so you can add me if you want :)

    Ah, people only comment if i tell them ive lost more weight. so ive yet to have anyone point out that theyve noticed.
    I havent been happy with my progress at all for some reason... maybe its because everything still fits the same and i dont feel like a new person.

    Hi Krista,
    Wow. You lost 46 pounds? That's impressive. You're well on your way; it is just that the road is not straight downhill, it is up and down, and up and down.

    46 pounds is nothing to sneeze at Krista. And it had to come from somewhere. It sounds like you're on track and just need to be a little patient with yourself.
  • Thanks... and im still about as blindly going into this as i was in july.

    Actually, i was much more confident when i started then i am now.
  • Hey Krista, my name is Angie and I'm new to this so I thought you might want a friend! Girl I hear you! I was on vacation this past week and went to Boston and Salem for Halloween so I ate out every day! But it's ok to splurge once in awhile. If you don't, then you will overeat several days in a row. So don't be too hard on yourself!

    no such thing. it's just another day. you have another 20,000+ days in your life. 1 bad day or 10 bad days or even a 100 bad days is virtually nothing in comparison. start tomorrow anew and just do a little better than you did today. that's all it takes.

    :smile:
  • 80% of the time i go over my calorie goal, and weight still comes off, so my numbers are clearly wrong. but i am an idiot when it comes to all this TDEE and BMR stuff, and every time someone posts that damn road map link i feel like shoving it down their throat LOL... Vent done haha
  • what do you mean "do a little better"

    Why are you assuming i did something wrong today?

    ^ this. i am assuming you don't need support on days you did well. am i wrong?
  • i dunno, im 200+ calories under goal and went to the gym for an hour.. didnt eat take out.
    But that doesnt mean i cant have a fat day and feel disgusting about myself regardless.

    ok. you're on the path to not having any more "fat days". today was a good step on that path. that should make you feel better, right? you know what they say about how you eat an elephant... you start with 1 little bite. then you take another. then another. eventually, the elephant is gone.
