    Miss Obrien, I totally feel where you are coming from. I start and then I end up losing out. I had gained 5 lbs after losing 15 pounds. I am getting back on track!! :)

    No no don't give up, your worth the blood sweat and tears, just start with small changes like no fast food and then just move your body and the weight will come off... This site is the best for support and motivation...Welcome sweetie, I will send u an invite

    One thing that works for me is drinking water when I get a craving. If I have some lemons I squeeze some juice in the water and it sort of helps with cravings. Hang in there!! I just started this program and the support from other members is awesome.

    don't give up yet... i was similar to you. i would start diets (counting calories or eating only certain foods) or start exercising and never really finished anything. but i've been on MFP for a few months and i've lost 23 lbs. just give it time. start with baby steps, small changes. you will definitely make it happen this time around :).

    the little advise i can give you is remember why you started this journey, thats what i do, whenever i feel like im not loosing weight or i cant see the results i get the urge to give up and then i remember why i started and i dont give up. i try harder. and just crossing my fingers hoping it works.
