Sick of it

Hey there!

I know what you mean I haven't had any success at all over the many times trying to use this. My problem was starting BC 5 years ago. I auto gained 10 pounds and have gone up another 10 no matter what I try but now I need to kick it up so I can lose it and the only thing my doc said would help is to work twice as hard to counteract the BC...so helpful lol.

I would be happy to join you on your journey and hopefully we can each other along the way!!!

Hey thank you for replying ! I think the reason why we don't have any success with this website is because I never took it seriously. I found it hard to really estimate portions of food eaten. Since then I purchased an electronic kitchen scale and even though its work, things need to be measuredif we hope to succeed. just to clarify things, when you say bc do you mean birth control ? I never know that could affect weight but im not surprised. I am happy to have you join me in my journey as I am sure we will succeed. One thing to remember is I've gained about 50somwrhing pounds in the past 5 years and the maim reason why I feel I have never lost it is that I gave up.I felt it was not in my control, life is too short to deprive yourself and etc. Yesterday I really felt sick of myself and this weight. And I'm loosing it, no matter what it takes. Anyways, keep in touch ! Sorry for typos I'm using my phone.

I'm losing and losing slowly. I find that cutting carbs and sugar is the best way for me to move the scale. It's hard and many days I stumble, but it gets the job done.

Also, I suggest posting a picture and connecting with your MFP buddies. It really makes you log in and keep trying when you would have quit otherwise. I believe some of my best/most supportive and favorite friends have open diaries and daily loggers. Maybe just a coincidence, but I'm going with it for now. Good luck!! You will do it!

Hey thank you for replying. Definetly carbs and sugar are a nono. I am cutting sugary drinks too, all those useless calories I used to consume. I posted a picture today. And I will post another one soon. Its amazing I've had this app for 1-2 years and I though it was pretty useless and it didn't work. But I was amazed at the responses I got. Thank you all for being there. It gave me a reason to fill my food log for today. Will keep you all up to date. Thanks a million!

i will add you if you so desire. Please add a profile pick though. Even if it is a quote or a logo i don't care. Gray alian people scare me. lol

Jdad thank you for your reply ! And congrats to you on the progress ! Gray alien people? Lols you're right I think it looks better now

Keep in touch !

bump for my new friend. Everyone add him right now. That is a direct order.

Thank you J. I appreciate your input.

Okay so Day 1: not easy

This gas started off okay, but almost ended badly. I ate out at a restaurant but mostly salad bar so that was not bad.just very hard to know/measure quantities. I almost felt like eating some junk food but I made it pas today. Well see what tomorrow holds. I found that its important to keep warm at home. If its cold you tend to want to eat more often. This one cost me for a while.

This is getting long to type on a phone !

Talk soon!

Thanks again and good luck

I would be happy to add you as a friend to inspire and brainstorm with. I'll send you a request.

Hey ! Thank you for the add! Congratulations on your progress ! I know it wasn't an easy road so far and the one coming won't be either but I am sure that if you keep this up you will do it. I am glad to share progress, thoughts and motivation with you.

Keep in touch!
