Just for fun: My mum brings really unhealthy food into the house and I feel guilty saying no because she feels guilty about not bringing in the right food for us. But I definitely need to start living my own life. Eating my own food!0 -

Just for fun: What is your biggest roadblock to losing weight? This week it has been my horrible bunion flaring up. Basically I couldn't wear shoes or even walk for several days. I exercised for the first time in about 10 days last night and it's getting better, yay for me. I binge eat when I get an obstacle like this usually, but so far no binges over it.

I'm joining in a bit late...hope that's okay
SW: 188

GW: 174 (for this month)
I was actually down to 174 a while ago, in June, but then we were moving and I had my birthday and have been totally off track for eating. Exercise is my easy part; it's the eating that destroys me. I need to get the re-gained 4 pounds back off and continue downwards to my goal of 150 pounds.
My biggest hurdle is, by far, mindless evening eating, especially in front of the tv. I need to either keep busy (have a bath, read) or get into bed earlier so that I don't end up bored/tired in front of the tv, stuffing my face.0 -
