I did WW from April-now. Technically I have a membership till mid-Feb. although I cancelled it. At first I was paying $70/mo for "coaching". That consisted of a few phone calls with a coach who honestly was not helpful at all. She read me a bunch of motivational mantras and would then take notes on our call. She'd email me…

I think its harder for people who see you all the time. My family seem to notice last, but people I don't see that often will notice a big difference. Don't be discouraged! I honestly get most excited when I have more energy.

Thanks for sharing! What a great post! And congrats on your success!

I've considered getting certified to teach Zumba because so many plus size friends tell me they would love to try, but they are intimidated by a skinny trainer. And I'm one of the best in my class even though I'm usually one of the largest! One friend jokes that "when I see skinny people at the gym, I feel bad about…

I think I'm a food addict or at least an emotional eater. I use food as comfort if I'm stressed, like I'll tell myself "I had a hard day, or I did a great job today, its ok to have a treat". I did an internship once at a substance abuse clinic, and it seemed like many of the clients had replaced drinking/drug use with…

Wear the sports bra! You're exercising, so wear what is comfortable and appropriate for the task. A sports bra isn't meant to be sexy- its fitness appropriate attire. If a man can run shirtless, a woman can run in a sports bra! Also, its a red flag if your husband is super controlling about what you wear. I'm married, and…

I'm new and I LOVE reading these posts! Just reading has provided me support, so I hope my post likewise helps someone else out. Thurs. truth- I ate part of an eccles cake (currant cake pastry) today and didn't even finish it. My husband thought I was crazy to throw 1/5 of it away. I'm slowly realizing I can eat a sweet or…

I'm 5'8", but I'm the shortest in my family! My sister is 5'10" and my brother is 6'7". Both my parents are taller than me too. I have a totally different body type from them and carry my weight in my hips and butt and have a large chest. They both have thinner legs and always look slimmer than me just because of my body…

I don't pay that much attention to sizes. I have a tiny waist compared to my big booty and thighs. I'm 5'8" and have worn a size 20 or 22 from 260-290 lbs (my heaviest). I've always had this shape my entire life. Even when I was in HS and thin, I had to buy "reverse fit" or some such jeans because there was such a…

Its helpful for me to look up a food before I decide if I'll eat it. I guess that's kind of pre-logging. Or, its really more like making healthier decisions using the log.

Same for me too. I'm pretty frustrated today. I've only been weighing myself about every 2 weeks, and I was losing 1-2 lbs/week for about a month and a half. I weighed in today and I gained 4 lbs back. I don't think I did anything different in terms of eating/exercise. I think I actually ate a lot LESS last week. I was out…

Hi brides! I'm new here, and this is my first post!! I got married on 6/16. We actually eloped on 2/25 (our parents knew) but no one else did! So we decided to have a small family wedding with our pastor and about 75 people on 6/16. I've been working on losing weight and getting healthy since about Jan. I started shopping…
