I'm sorry. It's terrible to feel so discouraged. I know, I've felt the way you do now many times. I've been fat and thin and in between, and now I'm fat agin. And I'll get thin again, but because I've never TRULY dealt with the issues in my relationship with food, I don't have a huge amount of confidence that I'll keep it…

Thanks--Perfectly helpful and succinct answer!

Thank you all so much for the input. I believe this will really help my motivation and attitude. It can be so demoralizing to feel like you're flopping everywhere and looking a fool.

I've consistently read on these forums to eat back about half of your MFP-determined exercise calories, because the reported calorie burns are greatly over estimated.

I'm going to add you. I'm an emotional/stress eater too, and I'm looking for support to change those patterns. I'm 32, 5'6" SW was 225, CW is 215, and my goal is 140-150.

Add me please! I need friends too! I'm just getting started and have 70 lbs to lose.

I'm gonna add you! I need more friends (I only have four). I've been on MFP since January, but I'm just getting started for real. I'm a week in and down 3 pounds.

I'm close... SW: 226 lbs H: 5'6" CW: 218 lbs GW: 140-150 lbs Age: 32 Add me as a friend and we can support each other, compare notes, and watch each other succeed!

Thanks everyone!
