I weigh myself once a week at the same time of day in the same spot. I even weigh clothed the same. It may seem a tad OCD but I know it's as accurate as I'm going to get.

Whipped cream cheese is delicious although there is nothing wrong with butter.

I'm a few weeks late beginning the #-a-week challenge but here goes..... Name: Beverly Age: 55 Height: 5' 4" Starting weight: 213 Goal weight: 160 Current weight: 213 Total weight lost: This week's successes: joining this challenge This week's challenges: cutting back on sweets Weigh-in day : Monday 1/3 1/10 1/17 1/24 1/31

I'm in!!!! I need all the motivation I can get

Depression plays a huge role in my binge eating. Some days it seems as though I've always got food in my gob. Even though I'm on medication there are days that are just too overwhelming. The more hopeless I feel, the more I eat.....anything sweet will do.

I hate that I used to be so trim and fit now I'm a blob. I hate that I can't walk without hurting. I hate that I'm out of breath when I try to walk fast. I hate that I can't keep up to my Grandkids. Mainly i hate that I have done this horrible thing to myself.

Hi. I'm looking to loose the same as you. I like motivated friends who are not afraid to kick me in the bit when I need it. Feel free to add me.

Feel free to add me. I'm a third timer here. I really need motivation.

I'm a sugar addict as well. I will go cold turkey for a few weeks and still crave it. Ultimately I will end up gorging myself on chocolate bars or???? I have decided this time that I will allow myself small treats and see if that works better for me.

I make mine by beating 1C milk,1 egg,1tsp vanilla together till well mixed. Then I stir in 1/3c quick cooking oats, add whatever fruit I feel like that day. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg on top. Microwave for 3 minutes. Yummy. Protein,fruit.,dairy,carbs. Very filling. Very nutritious

Thank you for this . I have been on a roller-coaster for years. Every time I have started out wonderfully but get bored of the foods or am always hungry. This time I'm going to take it slow and easy.

I've actually had very little trouble with the site. I enjoy my time spent on MFP.

My goal for today is to practice saying "NO" to offerings of wonderful, yet horrible,food offerings. I'm also going to pay more attention to my fitbit steps.

This is my NSV. I was always very slim and fit when i was younger. I somehow lost myself in the pitty pool after a horrible divorce and found myself depressed,overweight,and out of shape. Because of my weight I did not lIke the way I looked in shorts. This summer I decided it was time to just get over it. Even though I'm…

Hi. I'm 53. I'ld live to join your goal. I'm in.

Feel free to add me. I also binge eat,at times to the point of physical illness. I tell myself it will never happen again, then the next day,or the next week, I would repeat the behavior.

Thank you for your advice. I have lost and gained several times. In the past I began with a full out sprint and ran out of steam. This time I have slowed it down to a slow trot. I am more prepared to go the course

I'm 53 years old and 5'4" . I am currently at 208# I am aiming for 150#. After that I will see how I feel and go from there.

I'm a plain meat and potato girl. Oh and chips,Chocolate .

Floppy bacon and anchovies.

Fantastic outlook. I have been on that roller-coaster for years. You have given me a new way to look at my ups and downs. Thank you.

Just put on your favourite music and "dance like noone is watching "

I used to get rid of mine. I have gained and lost weight so many times now that I have trunks of "just in case" clothes.

I was closet shopping as well until I completely sabotaged my diet. I gained so much I had no choice but to go shopping at an actual store. I found that Giant Tiger has quite nice plus sizes that are affordable. Even though I hate that I've gained back all my weight and then some,I feel better with my new wardrobe. It has…

You Can Do It!!!!! Feel free to add me and we can help each other out. I share my diary so am open to ideas.

Thanks for the great tips. I'm going to put them to use.

I'm a snacked as well. I've snacked myself right out of all my clothes. I will do wonderfully for a month or two then WHAM I'm snacking instead of meals.

Hi. I'm in the same boat as you are. I have been here several times so I know it works. I start out brilliantly then lose motivation. I think we could possibly help one another. I don't have any magic answers but I can try to help. Feel free to add me.
