Heh. I could have written this post. I have similar problems. I've gotten better by making a priority to do at least 1 active thing in the weekend. Fun exercise. Making a concious effort to at least make healthier choices on the weekend helps. Not so much "dieting" just healthier. I think part of the problem might be that…

Success can happen for you. It will be hard and dont let that part discourage you. keep in mind you're not alone in all this. Baby steps. Read as much as you can and apply whatever works for you. I found it helpful to find ppl who are similar to me that have had success. Im working with some PTSD and anxiety myself. Ive…

I have trouble too. Logging is actually a habit for me. Im not perfect but i used to skip logging when i thought i was being bad. I started to log no matter what and found that often times even if i made poor choices, the damage wasnt that bad. it keeps me honest with myself. it gives me an idea of what to do in the…

Fat shaming is a real problem. I've had similar experiences. Im sorry you had that happen. Ppl dont realize how hurtful it is and how unhelpful it is!

Hello! I'm feeling the same. No more excuses. I'm starting again too so pls add me. I do pretty well with eating healthy foods - that's been a long journey, but keeping up with being active is my downfall. Im all alone on my journey in real life and I'm thinking more peeps on here will bw helpful :) ~Kitty

Lots of strength training/bodyweight exercise for your hips and thighs! Squats, lunges stuff like that. Jillian Michael's stuff was helpful to me but the leg exercising in the Nike Training Club app made the biggest difference to me. (I have really flabby thighs) but I saw a loss of inches in just a couple weeks of doing…

one day at a time! even, one meal at a time, if that is more helpful. I struggle with all kinds of things. the most important thing to remember is to be kind to yourself. Next, be mindful of what you're feeling when you do stuff and how doing stuff makes you feel. Rememebering that you feel like crapola after eating fast…

It takes me amount a full month of actually doing what I'm supposed to be doing to see any scale movement. Dont forgot to take your measurements! And if you're not sure about calories look up Scooby's TDEE calculator (google it) :) food is important so you don't want to eat too little either.

Hi edises - I definitly notice changes in my moods when I eat worse. Fried foods will send me over and refind sugar will make me very depressed. I'm a coffee junkie (so i have to watch my caffiene intake too) so when I go to starbucks everytime i have to literally remind myself that "those muffins looks awesome but I KNOW…

hello! this right here is the story of my life. I've only recently been able to remind myself that my episodes will pass and the world will not have ended. (Of course it feels like the world is ending, but it never actually does). I wanted to post in here and see if anyone would like to add me for some extra support or…

you can add me to! I log pretty much every day and am motivated most of the time :) I'm working on being a supportive person so having more people to support is all the better!

Hi there! I am in too! I'm 32 and I'm working towards losing about 20lbs too. My bf eats poorly also! It's like pulling teeth sometimes to get him to be active with me! I'm also looking for some more support if anyone wants to add me. I've been doing OK the past month and a half and would love to have more peeps to share…

Hi there!. I am a stress eater (and drinker) but I've found a few tricks to help me out. One - I make sure I eat regularly so I am not starving to death ever. Not only does being hungry add to stress and emotional breakdowns, if you do get emotional and you're already hungry you will reach for crap. I do anyway. I freak…

Hi Bean, I'm 5'1" too! Short and round. LOL. I need to lose about 30 lbs. a couple years ago I lost about 20lbs. I did well with netting between1300-1400/day 1200 was very hard to maintain. just that extra 200 cals makes a huge difference in performance and hunger AND weight loss! I've not heard of this book you mention,…

Hellos. I'm about 5'1" and 135ish. I don't have pics on the computer I'm on rn but I was looking at some pics the other day I think I was about 135 in and I swear I look so much thinner than I do now :( I'll see what I can find when I get home and post some. I don't think I have NAY pics of myself in my profile. I'm…

Thanks for standing up for those of us who do need help. x

I have BP also and have been on a number of different meds but since my last episode I was switched to depaokte. I gained 14lbs pretty fast and if i'm not very careful I gain more. Before this gain I was only about 10;bs from my goal :( I'm hopeful that after a few months it will even out and I'll be able to lose the…

Hello! I have an older sister and we have exactly the same body type but she is much more overweight than I am. We were always overweight growing up but when I started college I worked really hard to lose weight and learn how to keep it off (it doesn't always stay off but whatever) so anyway 10 years later I'm way smaller…

Most personal trainers at he gym don't know what they're doing. SAorry to be so general butthe things I see trainers making people do is nuts. I saw one having a mid 40's rather out of shape woman use one of thoe half ball things to to burpies. years ago when I first joined a gym I got one 'free training session' and had…

It depends on how tall and built you are! long ago when I first ever started losing weight I was about a size 16-18 and I thought a size 10 was the smallet I'd EVER be able to fit into. I had no idea I was in fact a small person! I am 5'1" Once I reached a size 10 I was STOKED! When I was wearing size 9 jeans that was…

Gah! I keep forgetting to check in. I've been keeping up and it's hard! I think things are improving down there though. I'll do anything to make my thighs look better :/

This site makes me sad. Chicks my height and weight look way better than me :/

Your legs look great! What are you doing?? Congrats on the loss, btw!

Ths was me for a long time. I love beer and was not tracking it. Holy Cats!! Luckily most of the delicious craft beers I enjoy are in the database so I can log them and, while i may not be able to drink as many in one weekend, I can still enjoy them. I feel much better when I don't go crazy with food and drink and was so…

I do! That's cray cray to me thoug. How they do it I will never know. That stuff makes me fall asleep. Years ago I used it to treat insomnia. But it also sometimes made me eat ALL THE ICE CREAM. *I* was not healthy. I sleep just fine now and don't eat ice cream (lactose) so I'm good on the pot-front. I live in Cali though…

What she said ^^ It's important to accuratley track EVERYTHING. And to find out your actual TDEE And to be really honest with yourself. Plus one month isn't very long. Generally when I start my weight loss attempts it takes about two months to get into the swing of things and I must be VERY consistent. I'm also 5'1" (yay…

Campion Father Ted Hyperdrive Spaced Jeeves & Wooster? They're all British but should be easy to find. of course your idea of good might differ from mine :P I'm sure you already have watched all the cool stuff that's currently on TV. like Elementary & Grimm :):) ~psk
