    Me to, when I'm stressed I can't tell you how many calories I eat. This is nee for me and I'm hoping joining a community with people dealing with the same issues will be helpful. I am 46, run a very busy pet salon and have an active social life. I think the social life is a lot of the problem. I am excited about taking weight loss serious. I have a goal to loose 90 pounds.

    Me too! No matter what the emotion, I eat! I have done Weight Watchers so many times over the years. It definitely works, but I can't keep paying $45/month. I know what to do. It's just a matter of making the decision to do it. I think I finally realized that I need to choose between the instant satisfaction of sweets (or whatever) or choose to look and feel good. I want to lose 20-30 pounds more. I've lost about 17 so far, this last time around.

    Hi Taylor I study Wellness and health promotion and i minor in nutrition, and although i have struggles of my own as we all do, id love to help motivate you and support you!! Weight loss is such a process and i think the hardest thing is we all want that instant gratification. What has helped me the most with progress is getting to know my downfalls. For instance i CANNOT buy cheezit's or ice cream. I know ill eat a whole box or an entire carton in 2 days. So buy cutting out those foods all together from your grocery list while you know you do not have the willpower yet to say no or control your eating, it gives you no choice but to eat somthing healthier. Anyone feel free to add me the more merrier!!

    Hi, I too am a mother of three with a 6 months old little one at home. I have very similar goals, currently a size 12 and would like to go back to a size 6 or 8. I need to loose 35 pounds.
