hello, and welcome! good luck on your journey! :)

I struggle too, with motivation. I think the bottom line for me though, and what keeps me trying, is that I don't want to be heavy any more. I can give up and accept myself this way, in this body and in poor health, or I can pick myself up and try again.

You are definitely not "too sensitive". That was mean and VERY immature. And not true! To echo the shared sentiment, you are gorgeous! It's hard to not let comments like that bother you though. hang in there!

definite difference!! way to go - you should be so encouraged!! :bigsmile:

Welcome! I just joined last week. Everyone is AMAZING here - very friendly and encouraging! Good luck on your journey - you can do it!! :smile:

thanks to all! appreciate the help.....I can do this! :bigsmile:

haha!! How encouraging it is to read through these....a good goal - if I stick with it, I will see my bones again!! :smile:

LOVE the ideas! I will give 'em a try and see what works. Especially keeping my mind (and body) busy and not sitting around.

I like the idea of planning a snack ahead of time. I was trying to do the "breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper" thing, so need to mix things up a bit. Thanks!

well, i love popcorn so i will give that a try! :) i wish i didn't sit there and THINK about food so much...that's what i'd love to kick!
