First of all you really do look great! And I do get like that. I have pics of me before I had a baby when I was 115pounds. Sometimes they discouarge me and other times they inspire me. I find it easier if I do not focus on those pics or pics of other girls. All of our bodies are different

I did not eat too much yesterday. I did not eat everything.in sight! I am finally getting myself under control. This time I will keep it that way.

Yes, snacking is okay, but I take it to a whole new level. It is more like emotional eating. I get like a zombie: food! :). I just keep thinking about what can I eat next. I was not born this way and I will overcome this for good!

You might not be eating enough or too much of sugar or salt. Do not give up! You can do this!

I have learned that if I move on instead of starting over helps. If I stuff my face stupid and I say I will start over tomorrow , well we all know that tomorrow never comes. If I say" wow, I just like a wilderbeast, perhaps I should not do that anymore -moving on."I seem to be able to keep going forward instead of starting…

I stuff my face stupid! When I break the habit I lose weight and when I let the food zombie (I call it that becasue that is what I am like: food, food, I must eat, etc.) I gain weight. It is terrible. I eat anything and everything. I really do not want to live the rest of my life thinking about what I am going to eat next.…

that is an awesome name! I love star wars. it may be a lil self-loathing, but nevertheless, i find it funny

LOOKIN' GOOD! Let's keep it up. Thanks, again, RACH for doing this.

Hope it gets better for you that is a lot of stress you have going on. You dont need that fast food...

HA, I keep posting on the wrong week. Sorry ladies. I will figure this out soon. Great job, everyone!!! and thanks RACH for doing the chart.

Week 2 is looking good, thanks. I plan to exercise. I want to really get back into belly dancing every day. WTG to everyone. YOu all deserve a pair of new shoes :), You worked hard for it

My week 2 weight is 150

Glad to see yo here, I'd be glad to have you as a friend. To support and motivate each other. That is what this web site is all about.

I, also, agree with the "honey" and sweety" or how about "My Dear" - I can't stand MY DEAR

I really dislike it when a certain co-worker will bring fattening junk into work and ask me if I want any o fit. I turn her offer down with a "No thanks". then she pushes the issues. I again remind her that I am watching my weight. This is what annoys me. She then says "You dont need to, you are thinner than me", Um......…

Is it too late for me to join??? I just weighed myself. I am at 152.4. I really need some good fun motivation and since I am into old cars this looks perfect.

I reeally like that one!!

I like them! We even have some of the same ones. whichs brings me to say > GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!! LOL Thank you for posting them.

IT is true: exercise is a pick-me-up. It raises those feel good hormones. When I feel like blah, like I do today, I start out with some deep breathing yoga: forward bend and monkey - which as i hve learned is flat back doing a forward bend. breath in to do monkey breath out slowly rounding the back into forward bend.…

So far, I have tracked everything. I have not been following a weight-loss plan, but I have tracked everything that I ate. Now I can see where the weight comes from. I have started ot exercise, when I can. It is a slow process, but I am taking the first couple of steps to changing my eating habits

I hear ya! It can be a very emotional and a very tough struggle. This is a very tough time of year. I find that I don't get too far off track as long as I track. Exercise is important, but I don't always have time to do it. I end up with 10 minutes here, 3 minutes there... anyways. I try not to say that I "deserve" to eat…

I think that it depends on you, how sick you are. If you have the flu then you have to rest. The flu can be very serious. But you must pick back up. A few days of not exercising can turn into a few monthes. I have gained weight by taking a few days off after my daughter was born. See I actually gained most of my weight…

I try to stay away from pills, but that is just me.However, I have learned that there are times when you need them. I am not so sure if they truly work weight -loss. Don't know the answer to the pill thing. I do know of really go workout! belly dancing!!!! No joke. its fun, it tones and it will raise your heart rate. there…

thank you
