  • I agree with other posts. I don't go by a scale weight but how my clothes and more specifically how my belt feels. If I can do it up at a smaller hole good for me. I tend to retain alot of water which accounts for alot of weight but the belt is still smaller so it's all good in my eyes.
  • I hear your frustrations. I lasted 3 months at a place very similar to the sound of this place. I just walked out one day, quit and didn't look back. Stress isn't good for anyone especially if you are trying to lose weight. I know it's awful quitting but is any job worth your happiness? I don't think so. I agree with other…
  • I would totally love a support system. I'm in St.Norbert but I am limited to timing as my husband is a long haul driver and I don't have a reliable sitter for my 5 children. That is my my hardship with getting "me" time to participate in groups.

  • Keep at it. This is my second go around on here and I'm finding this time easier, maybe because I am really ready to shed the pounds.Good luck with your goals.
  • I am a very busy Mom of 5 children under the age of 10 and my husband is a long haul truck driver so my "me" time is pretty much gone. I've lost a bunch of weight with staying under my calories and going for an occasional slow walk. I also have an exercise bike that I rarely use. So yes you can lose without going to the…
  • I totally feel your frustration. My husband who needs to loose weight for his health issues was loosing weight and catching up to my weight. I decided that I'd try to loose some weight also. I have 5 children between the ages of 4 and 10. We all eat the same things. My husband and I only have one helping (a small piece of…
