This really resonated with me - brings to mind a saying - just bc you vacuumed your house once, doesn't mean you won't ever do it again right? Maybe think of these "catching up" times more as "usual maintenance" times of life and that instead of reaching an end goal the idea is to just keep things in as best order as you…

I'm just curious especially for those who reported weight loss a few years ago from phentermine, has anyone been successful in keeping it off long after stopping the med?

how is bright lines going? i'm thinking about joining too!

hiiiiii everyone feel free to add me! 32 and have a good 40lbs to lose too!

This is horrible. I'm sorry that this happened to you. I have always been amazed by how mean people can be (especially in NYC) but this is still surprising. I have been asked about (or just assumed to be) pregnant and the first few times I was horrified and crippled... now it's happened so many times that I've lost count!!…

Hi everyone! Count me in! I'm 5'4" and about 180 lbs now. I've lost ~10 lbs and I feel like that was the "easy water weight" so really hope I can keep it up! Would love to be at 150 by the end of December!! My plan is to track everything, try to get lots of protein, and walk. I'd love to get back to 10,000 steps per day…

What inevitably trips me up when I am doing well is when I get depressed. This can be for a variety of reasons (or no reason at all). For the longest time I thought if I could only lose weight, I wouldn't be so depressed. Through proper care I learned that it wasn't until I got my depression under control that I could then…

Thanks for your post- I've been on and off here but feel like this month will be a good one!!

I'm 31 and would like to lose about 50lbs- jeez it sounds so overwhelming just typing it. My biggest challenge is the pressure I get from my family (especially since I am single and of course they say no one will ever marry me like "this") .. It makes me really mad bc I don't want to lose weight for them, they should…

I often use Sprig but many of the options are 700 calories plus and that isually doesn't include condiments or dressings so it's hard to stay under 1200 with all their yummy options!

I'm looking to lose weight but at a slow enough pace that it stays off not crash dieting. I've ordered one week of BistrotMD and after that two weeks (the minimum) of Freshology to test them out! I'm really quite excited - even if I don't end up losing weight - just to lose the daily decision making struggle and failure…

For a long time I thought if I could just lose weight I wouldn't be so depressed. My doctor correctly pointed out that once I'm not depressed, I will more easily be able to lose weight, and she was right. Medication may or may not be the right route for you. I would take one step at a time... try to treat your mood first…

Hi there. I had actually initially gained about 40lbs in 4 months from a previous depressive episode in which I was prescribed abilify. Everyone reacts to different medications differently, but it is important to check in frequently with your doctor when starting something new (mine waited three months, damage had already…

I also happen to notice when I lose a little weight it comes off in certain areas that make my stomach look like it is protruding more, bc when I'm thicker it fills in the edges around my belly fat and looks more uniform. I try to remind myself of this and that it's actually a good thing and to keep going. Tho it's really…

I like the one that overrating is not a reward, it's a punishment. Maybe to some the work "punishment" is a bit extreme and could conjure up an unhealthy response, but I like the idea that I should not see the chance to overheat or indulge as part of a celebration for something (which I often do). This overeating is not a…

That bc I'm 28 and single I must be greeted with "awwwww" and words of sympathy- or that I should enjoy hearing about /obsessing over babies and rings all day
