I think you are eating too many calories for your height and activity level. Everyone is initially crabby and hungry when they first reduce calories and you will not go into famine mode with 1500 calories a day. If you do not want to eat less or burn more than just stop chasing unicorns and be happy where you are at since…

Count me in. SW 132 CW 130 Jan GQ 127 I will weigh in on Fridays.

Petite and Jr sizes are cut smaller so if you don't need the length maybe try petite or for Macy's online use the filter and try to find a size 0 or 00.

My goal is 1200 daily and I don't count exercise. I do elliptical 5 days a week for a half hour more because of the health benefits not to help lose weight. I am currently at a "holiday" weight of 132 I want to be around 120-125. Pre-holiday I was hanging around 123-127 which felt good to me just want a little extra wiggle…

Please add me! I am 5'8, my heaviest weight weight was 155 two years ago. I lost 30 over a year on mfp and have maintained around 123-127. Holiday weight is currently 132. I want to maintain in the 120-125 range. I am glad to find a group on mfp that doesn't make me feel bad for not being heavier and understands the…

Please add me! Holiday weight 132, pre-holiday 123-127 range want to be 120-125. My biggest temptation is alcohol on weekends. Working on cutting that out. Ugh!

Add me please! I am 5'8 my weight has been fluctuating between 123-130 over the past year. With the holidays I am up to 132. Feel so bleh, my clothes are uncomfortable and look terrible on me. Want to get this off and then maintain a weight range between 120-125. Feel free to add me as a friend. Good luck everyone!!

Thank you for that, needed it today!

Finally weighed in: CW 132 GW 120 9 lb holiday weight gain

I wish I was in a healthy environment but my home and workplace are full of people who have lost sight of what a healthy weight looks like. I am at the lower end of my BMI range and constantly have to hear from people about how I am too thin. I just keep my reply to myself and not worry what people think I know I eat…

I see the first hand effects of eating and drinking the wrong things on my job every day. I don't think my husbands goal Is diabetes, fatty liver, CAD, CHF or cancer just to name a few. I have tried for a long time to lead by example and not to preach, but as others have suggested I think I will have to look outside of our…

Thanks for the reply! It helps knowing others are out there with the same struggles we utilize a lot of the same strategies but I will add community sites for support and try to accept I will not be able to share a healthy lifestyle WITH my spouse as I wish to do.

Thanks for that recommendation, out of sight out of mind;).

I believe I have taken ownership. I started @ 5'8" and 155lbs, I am currently 125lbd, I have maintained this 30 pound loss over the past year. I eat VERY clean and cook for my whole family, they choose to eat otherwise. On the days I don't work 14 hours as a nurse (in an environment where most of my colleagues are very…

Was really looking for coping mechanisms, but thank you for the reply!

Sorry did not finish. It is a constant struggle to maintain a healthy lifestyle because my husband insists on keeping alcohol and junk food in the house. For the most part I can with some difficulty obstain but when it's the weekend or I am stressed it is too convenient to over indulge. I have given up trying to get him to…

Hello all! 50 yo mother of two. Over the past 2 years with the help of MFP I have lost and maintained a 30+ pound weight loss, I was 3lbs to goal weight when a total hysterectomy and the holidays happened. My clothes are so uncomfortable but I am not quite ready to jump on the scale to see how much I gained. Friday will be…

Not getting on the scale until Friday, but I am guessing I will be 130 or a few above. Goal weight is 120. Before the holidays I was 123 but gave in to holiday indulgence.

Nothing tastes as good as thin feels. A moment on the lips a lifetime on the hips. I would rather be thin than eat_______.
