You are most definetely not alone. I cldv written that.

Ur words echo my exact situation! Were u active or normal weight in the past tho? I mean ive always struggled with food and yoyoed with weight but i used to like sports....still do but little willpower as u say. I currently eat more than double my calories daily. Im addicted to sugar especially in coffee and soda. I dont…

Exact same boat. ):

Pls add me. I think sugar is really weighing me down....i think its responsible for me going over my calories, gaining weight, not drinking any water, messing with my moods, etc. I know i shld cut it out but wld really need a buddy....my weaknesses being coffee and coke. Wld you want to buddy up? Check in frequently? Hows…

I guess it wldnt hurt to try. They dont have those drinks where i live but i will b in america in a couple weeks for a couple weeks:)

Hmmmm....thnx. yea, i like the coffee cuz its a hot drink so i shld probably try tea ....also almond milk doesnt sound too bad. Oddly enuff, the dark chocolate also sounds tryable:)

Thnx for sharing! I like ur first example. I know some ppl dilute coke too....eww. i dont really need caffeine for caffeine sake tho as per ur second example. Anyway, i guess ur success can b mine if i try and dont give up!

Ok, so elimination does work. Wanna elimimate coke. Am gonna try. Just wanted some accountability. Thnx for sharing!

Big-girl discipline:):) love it. I wish i had 'met' you wen u started ur journey. To be honest, i prefer elimimating cold turkey cuz i think the sugar is so harmful to me (primarily the drinks). Yes i like other sweet stuff but dont consume them regularly. Wld u advise elimination? The last time i tried was last…

Thanks for the response! I dont think im really into coffee, its more the combination with milk and sugar.....its much easier to picture myself in the future drinking water than black coffee (but u never know i guess ). I could try to reduce the quantity tho. My mugs r huge and i cant drink one cup without making another):

I get that. Just thot it wld b easier fighting along side others with similar goals. I thot the thread title might attract ppl with similar goals!!

Ive seen discussions on the use of the word addiction on other forums. Fine. Its a terrible habit. What i mean is that i crave sugar drinks all the time. I have at least 6 a day and its mainly because of the sugar (and milk4coffee). I think about drinks all the time and dont enjoy meals without having drinks before and…

The main reason y i drink the coffee, is the sugar and milk.....i wldnt reach for coffee without enuf of both.....i mean i dont need coffee to be as sweet as say the mcdonalds one....but it has to be pretty sweet

In my teen years, i did all the diet stuff...like diet sodas and i wld end up drinking a 12 pack in a day(which also did not necessarily reduce my food intake). Nowadays tho, the taste of diet stuff or sweeteners is so repulsive to me....plus am one of those ppl that believe that they only increase my apetite.....but, thnx…

Lovely! How long did that take?

Add me. Looking to lose 50. Never been this big. Will power needs help. Love food...noticing I eat too many carbs...

Minneapolis, minnesota

Sounds exactly like me. Struggled with overeating all my life. Looking to lose at lwast 50 pounds and just generally make better Choices ....need to cut all the sugar. Desperate for mutual accountability. Will try to add everyone if y"all don't mind. Just had third child and my will power is really lacking.

I am looking for the same kind of regular support. I'm a mother of 3 with an infant. Been struggling all my life with overeating but have never been this big. I'm afraid to weigh....probably around 230 though...would love to lose at least 50. desperate for mutual accountability. how do I add people though?
