    My sentiment entirely. I realised a long while ago this was going to be a journey of lifestyle change, not a diet.

    Keep going!

    I do have a blog but I write about all sorts of things. godlikepoet.com I'm thinking of doing the blog on MFP, probably a couple of times a week.

    yesterday i went over close to 1000 cals. i didnt go to the gym. i also had a large cone from dairy queen and ate too many carbs, but you know what...its OK! the most important thing about losing weight is being honest with ourselves and not giving up. yesterday was yesterday, and today is another day. as i write this, im putting on my gym clothes and hitting the elliptical like i have been every day this week.

    a very huge thank you for this post!

    You are correct. Being honest. Logging all those calories no matter how angry or ashamed you feel.

    I love your posts ❤️ Have you ever heard that pain/anger from your past and present on a subconscious level can contribute to fibromyalgia? Check out this book for help with it. It helped mine and my mom's and many others. I never thought a book could help with pain, but I am doing so much better. And thanks for the inspiring post!

    This is awesome. :) I'm 53 and working on losing, again. I have done pretty well the past month. I get frustrated when I get on the scales and it hasn't moved (I want to see it go down a pound everyday! Lol- though I know that's impossible). I KNOW what I need to do to lose. I've done it before, then got lazy and the weight came back on. For me, eating less and moving more usually works. When I lost all my weight before, I did not deprive myself of any of my favorite foods- I just ate less of them- and most people couldn't believe I still ate pizza, cookies, etc. I think one of our main problems is we want immediate results, forgetting that it takes time to lose.
    Everyone needs to read this.
