Hiya, I am here to support you and help you become who you want to be. And I need the support as well. I just started yesterday.

Hi, I am a Business consultant and one of my clients works with this issue with fantastic results. Let me know if you want his number. Austin

Very Impressive!! Keep up the great work!!! :drinker:

Amish Country, Lancaster Pa

Pick up a bowling ball and carry it around for a day. Then you will know how much burden you have taken off your heart and body. Do you have before pictures?

change some of the things you eat and see if it fills you longer. drink water before you eat. eat more protein. Just suggestions. Not a Doctor. My best to you. Austin

I am not a Doctor, although I play one on the radio, I say ice is nice!!

Hey buddy, I am here to support you and be friends. Friend me if you wish.

Add me please!!

Our cashews come in a jar and peanuts too. What should I do?

My name is Austin. Does that count towards Texas? And to add to that, I was called "Houston" one time.

Those scales really can talk, can't they? Be very careful what you say to them!!:bigsmile:

Nicole offered some good tips. I would say a few things. Some people do not truly believe they should be thin and sabotage themselves until they get to where they see themselves. Others look at a certain goal, reach it and relax, rather than looking beyond the goal. I would suggest goals after you hit your initial success…

No one is addressing the real issue WHY you do it. Why is there such an obsession? Why is it controlling you? What other focus could you be doing? What would you do if there was no such thing as a scale? What would you do? Try to answer some of these questions. Hope it helps. My best to you.:glasses:

Thx so much. Very helpful!!

Thx for all the help here about "net" calories. Very kind of you to help!!

Thx Phase, I do like the net and always hated putting those worms on the hook.:drinker:

thx, but how do I use this info or is it just saying "I am ahead of the curve"? thx

Hi there, The best advice I can give is to take one day or even one hour at a time and just say "I will do my best right now" dont think about it any further. More later if you want it. I am a personal coach. Austin

You are correct, motivation must come from within but don't discount the motivation and support of others. It can help in some of our weaker moments. Thx

Turn your "WANT into a "MUST" and list your reasons "WHY". Keep it in front of you everytime you eat. Will you do this? Will you commit? We are here for you!! You can do it.

Write your goals down and put them where you go to get the food in your house like the refrig, right inside it. But more importantly, WRITE DOWN your "WHY" and read it everytime you reach for food that is not in your plan. Your why must be a MUST. Today, my wife told me my son is very proud of me for doing what i am doing.…

I would have helped you!! let's be friends.

I have so many like the time at Burger King when I ordered a cheese whopper with extra mayo and I heard the cook in the back say "heart attack ready to happen" and then our eyes met!!! Yikes. or when the little kid in the store says "hey fat man" and I could go on but I am doing great now and used them all as inspiration.

I will help the thin person in you come out. She is waiting and now is her time!!!!:drinker:

I am a business and personal coach and will friend all who wants encouragement.

yes, let's be friends and help each other!!

Don't eat it if you don't like it. Plenty of other foods.

hello, happy to support you and help you hit your goal!!

Thx Tracy!!!! Keep rockin!!
