Me too!! :smiley:

That what i need to do.. although it's easy to convince yourself that you deserve it.

The weekend is a problem too. It's the only time i spend with my mom and sister and a staple of that is eating. Thanks for the encouraging words. :)

Me too. I even think that i am convincing my self when, at 2 PM i say "I'm not doing this again today"...

Your weight goal is my goal too!

Ill open it up. Thanks

I'm not tracking consistently; I've been away from MFP for over a month. I know i need to start again.

Thanks for this. It's just seeing others reach their goals ( and I know that they're working hard to do it) makes me feel inadequate. Don't get me wrong, I'm not here for pity,, but for encouragement and tips. I find this community to be some of the best people virtually with encouragement/ :)

I actually do that already... I would like to have someone to do this with!!

Thanks for this. I do keep a lot of this stuff at my desk, it's when I get home that I feel like the beast has been unleashed. :smiley:

yesterday, i sliced some radishes and tried to convince myself they were chips :p You are all awesome with your tips. I appreciate them all.

You've all given me a lot of info and thanks for that!!!

My workouts are mostly in the evening, with the exception of Saturdays and Sundays- they end…

Wow.. Thanks everyone. OOHHHHH>>!!! Thanks for this. I should try this and soon. I try to eat a cup of fruit and it's not enough but something crunchy might help curb my overeating.

HA!!! This is my exact problem.

Thanks for this.... i"ll try some of these. :smile:

so i weigh my self on friday mornings, at 7 am every friday and even when i save my calories for the end of the day, i notice that there is an increase in weight when i eat at night than if i didnt. it could very well be a coincidence and it of course could be the type of food that may be causing this. but sometimes, it's…

i realize that it can't reject it, but it's the best way I can describe it. I started in 03/2013 and lost almost 40 lbs til 09/2013. I have been, more or less, fluctuating 5lbs, but cannot get past that amount. I need to lose about 30 more. my daily eating habits are the same: 1 cup coffee and oatmeal packet for breakfast,…

Hi, it's me again... So the personal trainer at the Y gave the 220- age example... Do you think this may have been an idea that started somehow and was lost / modified along the way? There has to be an ideal, if not perfect, heart rate that I should have based on the best way to lose fat. I take Zumba, where I can easily…

Thank you so much for this information. I have been successfully able to lose weight but I have since plateaued so I am trying to find a way to "restart" my metabolism. The instructors that teach the classes that I take are very knowledgeable, but short on time. I was lucky that I had some time before class to have the…
