Hey there. Whatever you do don't give up! You've lost weight and one bad day isn't going to hurt you. Get right back on track tomorrow. I have these days too and it is tough but the key is in not giving up. Do something to motivate yourself. Read some of the success stories on here or on the internet. Set some specific…

Hey there. I am also the mother of 3. They are all grown now. I have a 3-year-old grandson who I care while his mom is working. I have a little over 100 lbs to lose. Feel free to add me and YES we can do this!

Hi there! Feel free to add me. Wishing you well on your journey!

Hi! Feel free to add me. Message me anytime you'd like! Good luck and you can do this! I have more than 100 to lose! Ugh! lol One day at a time is the best focus for me right now.

It is great isn't it?! It truly is great support. Add me if you'd like! Good luck!

Hi Tim. Welcome and good luck! Feel free to add me if you'd like. I really love having the extra support here on MFP.

Yes we can! Look forward to hearing from you!

Congratulations!

Hi Doug! Welcome and good luck. Feel free to add me if you'd like.

Are they good? I've never tried them.

It is better than the regular way. The only problem that I found is that it can make the cake too moist to make a layer cake but I tried this years ago and have never made it the regular way again. Now they have icing made with splenda which helps save even more calories.

Wow! Amazing! Congratulations and thank you. Your words are inspiring!

Hi there! Feel free to add me if you'd like. Never can have too much support for sure!

Amen to that! Let's do this!

Hi there! Welcome to myfitnesspal. Motivation is tough sometimes. It is wierd. Sometimes I feel like what's the big deal? This is actually easy and then sometimes I feel like I seriously just can't do this! It definitely fluctuates. You're off to a great start. This is a great site with great people who really jump right…

Hi there! I've only been using this site for 5 days but I really do love it. I've had the same struggle but can't give up!

Thanks for all the comments. I think I'll try both. Here in the beginning, I'll have something low-cal on hand and as I continue and grow more confident, I'll slowly weed out the sweets. Thanks!

LOL I can see becoming addicted to this site too. It is great to be on a site where everyone is working towards the same goals. It really is nice to talk to people who understand!

Try chewing sugar-free gum

Hi there. It's nice to meet you. Add me if you'd like. I just started myfitnesspal and my diet!

I tried diet coke cake years ago and have never made a cake any other way. There is now icing made from splenda that isn't too bad. Still probably quite a bit of sugar in the whole thing but for a treat once in awhile, it's great!

Hi there. Feel free to add me. I just started too.
