I simply love when someone asks what it is I'm doing, like the expect some miracle answer. So, when they find out that I'm working hard at changing my life with keeping my food choices in check and exercising; it's usually a let down for them. All in all, there's no good way around it. Using some lie to disarm the…

Depends on what you're doing and for how long, etc... There's no mention of how long you've been dieting/exercising, what kind of exercises, etc. You have to realize that there's no silver bullet here too.

Your weight can fluctuate up to ten pounds in a day. If you drink a 16oz water, you'll weigh a pound more, etc. You shouldn't feel bad about messing up, just move on and try harder!

I can relate. Last year, I was over 400 lbs, but really got sick of myself to the point that it made me want to do something about it. I'm with the ones that say to list realistic goals (example: just cut sugar and sweets out). Looking at 30kgs seems like a lifetime, but I tell you that I'm 303lbs now, in just a year.…

I've been fat since jr high school, but hitting over 400lbs was mine I guess. Just tired of being sick of looking at myself, it was getting hard to even tie my shoes. Plus, I smoked; which made things worse. I tried a bunch of things before really settling on a low carb diet a little over year ago (plus quit smoking may…
