@juliebowman4 how about a fun active hobby?1 -
If I just had a gym membership.
I think I could be seeing more results with access to more equipment. But as far as what I could be doing more of now? More cardio.0 -
stop watching reality tv...I could be working out or doing something else productive to help with my goals....0

lift heavier. Sometimes I stay on certain weights too long, when I am capable of going to the next level.4

Chocolate. I buy the best sort, but even so, I'm eating about 250kcal worth a day, and it's just empty calories.0

You are beautiful. But I get it. I was there once (and I actually thought I liked myself) but the honest truth was, I didn't. So I had to start treating myself like I liked me and I had to start fueling my body with food that stated that I liked me and cared for me.0 -
Drink less wine!!0

Thank you for your kind words. I have a tendency to self-sabotage. After a lot of consideration, mindfulness and reflection, I have come to the conclusion that the reason is simply I don't value myself enough to look after myself as I should. When something 'bad' happens, I react by punishing myself with excessive eating or massive slovenliness.
BUT
As I can now pin point what I do wrong, I am in the process of changing this behaviour. It isn't easy but I am seeing results. For instance, someone just said something horrible to me at work which resulted in an even more horrible conversation with my misogynist of a manager.
Gut reaction: go for a calorie ladened lunch
Actual reaction: went to the gym & burnt 250 calories5 -
Be consistent over longer periods of time0
-
cut out sweets! I track them but I cannot help myself from grabbing some kind of piece of candy during the day!0

Working out more0

stop going to girlfriend outings or save my cheat meals for the girlfriend outings .1

...less eating... Seriously, it's the only reason i'm fat, i just can't bloody stop myself. I get worse when i'm 'on a diet' or 'NEED to lose weight'. Since trying to make a massive effort for a particular event, i've put on half a stone!!! I am just ridiculous.0

Lift more =(0

Eat only the food I bring with me to work. Often times I am offered cake, pie or cookies. Granted not huge servings cause its a nursing home but I normally have no clue on calories on them.2

Relax. Stress is bad news2

drink 8 glasses of water. I don't understand the problem.0
