I had the same problem with some Pilates exercises while I was still strengthening my core. It can help to focus on keeping your gaze up toward the ceiling, since it will encourage you not to bend your neck as much when you're lifting your shoulders off the ground.

MFP isn't a drug - it's short for MyFitnessPal

This whole thread is NOT OKAY. You are sexualizing this poor woman who just wanted to work out. It makes me exceedingly uncomfortable to see that so many men are talking about her clothes and her machine choice being some kind of invitation. We can and should be able to wear whatever we want to the gym. Whether we find the…

not abs, but I love to do standing push-ups against the wall during breaks at work

Avocado and a fried egg. Seriously.

You're already made a lot of great progress! Keep at it! The bad mood will pass.

Forgive yourself and move forward! Drink a lot of water, eat some fresh fruit or veggies and be proud that you didn't let a few mistakes derail your progress. Good luck!!

Great idea! Good luck! You might even beat it.

I have had years of experience dealing with emotional eating. Frankly, I'm still dealing with it. I don't know if any of this will be helpful, but as someone who has been there for a long time, maybe you can relate. When I was in college, I used to use food as a way to control my anxiety (before I was diagnosed with GAD.)…

And surprisingly, I feel great about it - I may not lose anything this week, but I'm proud of myself for not letting failure defeat me. Hope this…

Today I'll stay on track because I'm working on building good habits.

I went to the office pantry when I wasn't hungry, just tired, and picked up a mini candy bar. Then I put it down and walked away.

I'm a vegetarian, so my iron count tends to run a little lower, and it's never failed me if I want to donate blood to eat bowls of Mini Wheats for a few days before.

I love to "try on" colors on OPI's website. All the satisfaction of using ALL THE COLORS, while really preparing for one or two ;) http://www.opi.com/

It's hard, but 25 pounds sounds like a ton of progress to me! I'm super impressed by it. And there's always this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKCnHWas3HQ

Rock on! I also have a hard time saying no to sweets, especially if they're right in front of me.

I want to stay committed! I have been on and off all summer (usually I go off when things are stressful, like moving time) and I want to keep logging and not get discouraged if I fail.
