I agree...the work you do around the house counts for something. Take a deep breath and tackle the dishes. This will at least clear your head...try to enjoy every chore you do.

I weigh myself everyday, but think I'm going to change that. I am beginning to think that once a week is the way to go. This way I can see more progress and hopefully be surprised after a weeks worth of eating right. Good Luck!:happy:

I get that too...I'm used to filling up more than necessary... By body is adjusting to the new calories, and sometimes feels a bit hungry...water, water, water is all I can say. Also make sure you are getting the right amount of nutrients for your body. Even when we get the right calories the body may still crave something…

I know the feeling...not good. Don't get down on yourself...your still beautiful, just as you are!! Be kind to yourself...think about what may be bloating you...soda, carbonated beverages.
