  • I completely understand what you mean about not seeing it, but do you feel better? Try to concentrate on the positive things.

  • SO true! I'm surprised at how many people are saying to eat it anyway. If it was easy for me to have a small piece of (add your sweet treat here) and leave it at that, I wouldn't have any issues. For me, it would be like asking an alcoholic to just have one beer. Many of us are in the spot we're in because we haven't been…

  • Love seeing your progress and reading your post, especially since I'm at a point where I'm doing well but frustrated I'm not losing faster. I also love your comment about no excuses.
