Cake. Cookies. Candy.

Amazing! As a woman, you are harder on yourself than you need be. ANY man would look at you and think "sexy"...I PROMISE:) You are incredible!!!

Laying in bed...alone:/

Beautiful. Just beautiful:) You are a fantastic person, truly.

This past week I'm looking to hit around 3000, not 1800. If I'm not gaining, not thinking I should cut. And I can't know for sure what I was eating while I wasn't logging, but I do know what food has in it. Lol. Seriously. I ate as much as 5000 some days...that's why I said on average. I'm waiting to figure out my true…

Um...don't cheat. It takes a few weeks for new habits to form and you are resetting yourself before new eating habits can take hold. If you want this, you have to be consistent and stay committed. You have to WANT this. Period. Quit finding excuses and start kicking some *kitten*....you can do it, but you have to want it…

Not attractive enough for crazy friends??? Hmm. Your logic seems flawed ..but, how nice of you to demonstrate your qualifications for exactly what he's seeking:) Jac, I vote for this one. Can you say jackpot Oh wait. Maybe fingers knows you, my bad...I just got all butthurt on your behalf-oopsie!

^Exactly!!! Now, onto your question. The "why" is different for all of us and only you can figure that one out. Others can help unravel it sometimes, but it's something you've got to figure out.

Marcus Marcus Marcus...you are like my mfp problem child. I see you struggle and it breaks my heart. I know you want to lose the weight and the emotional demons you face are relentless. The fact that you keep fighting means you want this...and I know exactly the binge "change" you speak of. When binging goes from being…

I've been there...feel free to add me if an honest and real perspective motivates you:) Best of luck to you!

THIS!!!!! I'm pretty sure this guy knows what he's talking about by now:) I eat a lot in the evening and snack before bed nightly. I feed my body when it's hungry, not when someone else tells me I should be hungry...and it's working:)

Skin's elasticity is almost entirely determined by genetics. The weigh lifting does help the appearance of the loose skin because the muscle fills up some of the space previously occupied by fat. Aside from the surgery, the improvements are minimal, but dont get discouraged. Do the best you can<3

^NOT this. If you are active all day and eat well, that IS hard work. Who would bother doing (extra) cardio every day if they burned 2000 calories at their job??? Not a anyone I know. And two jobs plus school, PLUS trying to fit extra workouts in is not very "easy" of an easy way. Lol It IS that simple:)

Exactly:)

If you're active all day anyway, don't sweat a "formal" workout:) Get a fitbit and keep track of what you're burning while you go though your normal day, you might burn more than you think. Any extra you WANT to do, just fit in where you can. Keep it simple:)

Lol. Although I tend to agree, I can't help but to be happy your *kitten* is back!!!

I am SO sick of this!!!! Being obese is NEVER healthy. It is ALWAYS bad. Why do people want to make it about ANYYHING other than that?? I had a great doctor. The sweetest lady ever. And she never once brought up my MORBID OBESITY. Maybe if she had, I would have dropped the weight 7 or 8 years sooner, maybe not. But, it's a…

Absolutely incredible!!! You look amazing!!!

First of all, I can relate. I HAVE BEEN THERE!!! Secondly, your ENTIRE problem is that you do NOT want it bad enough. Period. There are no tips or tricks that will somehow make you want it enough to commit to it. It's committing 27/4 to your long term goal, versus stuffing your face and no one here can help you with that,…

Nice! I couldn't run to it, but that's definitely an excellent choice:)

I can relate. The last two months of 2012 consisted of eating well and logging in the morning and afternoon. Then in the evening, it would fall apart. At the end of each day, I'd say "tomorrow will be better. I'll eat right tomorrow." Well, that went on for two months. I couldn't figure out why. Since then, I've figured it…

Wtf is "fat shaming"? Facts: The vast majority of people who are fat, overweight, obese etc are that way because of bad choices, not uncontrollable circumstances. Most of the time, it is our own fault! Being overweight is UNHEALTHY! It's not even up for discussion. It's been proven countless times. Losing excess body fat…

^ EXACTLY! And if you need accountability please add some friends that will help you!
