    Welcome!!!
    Don't attack it all at once. If you win a small victory, it's better than you would have done before starting. If you obsess over every choice, you will end up beating yourself up and maybe quitting. You can't change life habits overnight. Rejoice in the successes. Take the defeats seriously, but don't let them knock you out. You'll do great-er than you would if you didn't try! :)

    You can friend me if you'd like.

    ^^^^This^^^^ My grandma also would say (often) ONE DAY AT A TIME...but I find I need to do one hour at a time! Good Luck on your journey!

I haven't checked my weight cause im trying to wait , that way there is more then a half of pound drop. My daughter is almost a year old and im still hanging on to this weight. Im hoping that with the help of this site I can drop the rest of this weight

    Feel free to add me, too - I just started 5 days ago, and have only one friend myself. ;) Welcome! :drinker:

    I got on the scale for the first time in a year at the gym a week ago. I have put on 20 lbs and needed to lose 10 to be where I wanted to be in the first place. It was unpleasant, but I am glad that I did it, so that I know what I am working with! I don't even own on a scale - I am far more interested in measurements, as I tend to be heavy for what I appear to be anyway, which makes getting on the scale no fun. Strength training always adds some weight initially also, but is good in the long run.

    So, don't be discouraged - get on the scale or take some measurements so you know when you make some measureable progress! It will be worth it.

    I did the same thing. After a while, and diligent recording of everything I ate, I really wanted to make better decisions. Dont beat yourself up. That just makes me want to eat more. Log it, and move on.

    Hi. My best advice is to make changes slowly. Next time you want candy buy a smaller one. Find out what byour riggers are for eating and learn a better way. Mostly, I quit buying ice cream out of a tub cause I think it taste bad if it last too long. So the majority of ice cream that gets bought is wrapped in single servings and that has helped me quite a bit. I am getting into making shakes though soI did buy a carton of ice cream and I threw half of it away. So slowly my thought process is changing. Friend me if you would like.
