    The thought of posting a before and after of my weight loss is making me feel sick to my stomach.

    Just know that it can be very inspiring for people to see that it's possible and to hear your story.

    When I first got on this app two years ago I was so dedicated with my diet - eating clean and losing weight. The last eight months I have been terrible! I'm 15 pounds over where I feel and look good. I can't seem to get back on track for more than a week at a time. I've been consistent with working out but we all know it's 80% diet. I'm over my calories for the second time already this week. I'm very unhappy with how I look, and have been for months now. I don't know how to get back on track for good.

    @EJJKMc6 I hope you understand that it's ok. There's no rush. You'll get the balance that you're looking for. I also hope you know that despite how you feel, that you are one of the greatest friends I've ever had. You are stunningly beautiful, funny, kind to a fault, caring, loving, and deeply passionate. I would selfishly like to think that I was the only one that saw that, but it's clear that everyone else on MFP does as well. Ask anyone! I hope you feel that. Breathe... you've got it.

    This. So much of this. I want to be you when I grow up.

    I am so painfully bored with life right now. I feel like I'm stuck in a perpetual loop of the same shiit over and over again and I want to pull my hair out.

    I confess that I have a Mexican beach trip in 37 days and need to be in bikini shape but after watching an episode of Nurse Jackie where she brought home a birthday cake for dinner, all I can do is think of cake. I was traveling over a 4-day weekend and bought two pieces of cake and three cupcakes (2 were gluten free!!!) also ate a medium pizza over two days. Fortunately I only gained a pound from my binge but came home and hid a stick of butter in the pantry to soften so I could make buttercream icing the next day. I made it. I ate it. I'm done. But I am ashamed.

    Somedays I wish my child wasn't "special" and I get jealous of parents who have kids without special issues. But I'd never trade him because his quirks are pretty cool just sometimes it would be nice to not be the mom of "that" child

    I can't help but be sad one minute and angry the next. I've felt a lot of disappointment in my life but this hurt. And I just don't know how to deal.

    I've got tons of confession, but I'll start with two....

    1. I'm an alcoholic. There I said it. I drink 6-18 beers night and I have since I was 12 years old, and I'm now 41. It is something I desperately need to change, but it is what it is.

    2. I idolize @projectsix. Not in a bad way, but in the way that sees that he's made a change in himself that I can't fathom. Have you seen this guy?! A hundred pounds down and looks like a superhero, with all the physical and nutritional info you'll ever need as well. Funny, cool... That dude is my goal.

    @Kasner1975

    Very solid confession Shawn, that takes balls not just to admit it to yourself but to admit it to your MFP peers publicly. That's a long time to drink that much and we're not getting younger but you're stronger than you give yourself credit for. If you need the help, it's out there. If you've reached admittance then you're ready. My mother is 38 years sober and owes every single day of her sobriety to AA. The whole group thing for me is a little odd personally but AA is very much legit. I've seen it help so many people and it's because everyone there is sharing the same journey. The stories you'll hear from people will run parallel to your life and blow your mind. With that 'new' future of yours coming up, you really have to consider the longevity. Even though you seem to not believe in yourself some of the time, just look around you, you have support and so many people who do believe in you. You're awesome as !#$@ you just need to believe it.

    I don't really know what to say about #2! Bro hug? Make out? Honestly man, I just had reached very rock bottom at 31 years old in my life when I had my daughter (2nd kid). I was severely depressed, barely got out of bed, ill half the time. I lost myself at some point and it was just a downwards spiral. One night I was up on the computer at 4:00am writing a 2 page email, tears streaming down my face that I needed to be around to see her graduate, I needed to be a grandfather, I wanted to grow old. So many things that I could see could not happen if I didn't fix the problem. I just didn't want to die. I stayed up that night until about 10:00am researching what was making me fat. For the next 2 days I spent hours upon hours on forums, blogs, just anything I could absorb to figure this $#@! out. I ran into a guy named "John Stone" who logged all his food, all his exercise and spreadsheet'd everything. I had no one to help me so I used his site as a bible. There was no MFP at that time! I just really grew into a true love for the iron, fitness and nutrition and it's my only hobby. I was lucky that I had a true passion for it, so it's not a chore at all for me. I'm no one special, I just reached a point in life where change was not "wanted", it was very much "needed" for the longevity of being around for my children. Maybe that's where you're at? You have the power to make these life changes at any point.

    Since I'm seemingly a superhero, I find it only fitting to set my profile pic to the Caped Crusader! DUN DUN DUN DUN DUNDUNDUN DUND UNDUN.

    Nice! great story. although...i read Caped Crusader as Casper and my mind went straight ghost mode :P sooo...that said...i guess i'll not whine about my 15lbs and just keep getting on with it!

    You guys are the heros...both of you. word.
