    Ouch!

    I'm a steelers fan but also a Jerry Rice fan so that one hurts just a little even though he's been retired for years!

    Hi all!
    Because a new year calls for improvement, are there any things in your life that you are cutting out in order to lose weight, become more healthy or improve your well-being?

    For me it's sugar.
    Diabetes and eating disorders run strong in my family and I noticed that I was starting to move towards that path these last couple of months. I binge eat on sweets in general and when Im counting calories, I often avoid eating healthy food (or anything considered real food) in order to fit in cookies, chips, cakes and ice cream into my diet.
    I havent binge eaten in a long time, but Im just done with the control that sugar has in my life.

    What about you guys? Comments, thoughts?
    Oh and happy new year! <3

    Nothing, because there is nothing to give up.

    I'm giving up 100 pounds. I will check in a year from now and confirm this information to be true, I assure you.

    I'm giving up gluten and coffee (so far so good, started 5 days ago). Giving up on people who have dragged me down. Giving up about half of the things I own. Giving up 30 lbs. Giving up bad spending habits.

    I'm giving up these cute clothes I just bought because they are looking sloppy and baggy, falling down all the time, or the sleeves grew a few inches too long. How does that even happen? Besides that I'm on the right track and don't need to give up anything.

    Being from Montana, I have always been a Joe Montana fan, hence a 49er fan, but switched my loyalty to Seattle and/or Denver. Tomorrow's game in SF should be entertaining as both teams kind of suck.

    I'm giving up my diet "control freakness" that, while successful, lead to a pretty miserable year for me and my husband. Losing weight does not have to be a white knuckle ride. Be realistic and patient. Go out to eat, have some fun. Just make good choices and watch those portions.

    Nothing! :)

    If anything I'll be adding more stuff into 2017.

    Last year I gave up beer and ice cream. Also yes, I made healthier version of ice cream. Nice Cream, often known as Nana Ice cream. It's super delicious and I don't crave unhealthy Ice cream anymore.

    This year, I will try to give up Indian food :(

    What am I giving up? Fat! All of this unnecessary, unwelcome and unhealthy fat on my body. Plain and simple! I'll give up pop, sweets and whatever else it takes to get there

    I keep thinking of things- I'm giving up my fear of food. Especially food that is of little nutritional value- I hope along with that- I'll be giving up bingeing. I get the logic behind bingeing is the other side of the restriction coin.

    Yo-yo dieting. I think I lost around 28 lbs last year and I am just as heavy as when that year started. Procrastination is also on the chopping block. X
