This website is exactly what I need. I've lost 60 pounds since January, but I still have a jelly belly. There are times when I look in the mirror I get discouraged and want to go pig out on chocolate or ice cream. I lost the motivationn to exercise.This site makes it so easy to keep track and actually see that the exercising that I am doing could really pay off if I amped it up a little.

Also being able to keep track of what's eaten at every meal is fantastic! I hope to stay motivated..

    You should be SO proud of yourself. Mentally, it might help you if you picked the equivalent of your weight loss in dumbells - or whatever - and walked around with it a min. Then put it down. It will refresh for you what you have lost. I grew up with horses and lifting a 50 pound bag of feed was HEAVY for me. I can't imagine walking around with it. I have a long ways to go (30 or so more pounds) What have you done to lose all this weight?

    Thank you, but my goodness, it is you who should be congratulated. Your weight loss is amazing.

    Funny you grew up with horses, I have one now. I couldn't lift a bale of hay if you paid me. But I'm working on it!

    To lose weight I stopped eating fast food, junk food, learned portion control. Started buying more fresh fruits and vegetables. Didn't go on a diet plan or follow a weight group, just got smarter about eating.
