You make a valid point. But what goals can you reach without support from others? I am a firm believer that people work better when they are supported and valued.

Thank you everyone for your replies! It's true, I can't beat myself up for what has happened. Instead, I have to move forward and keep my goals in sight! I am determined to get back on track without being obsessive or getting crazy!

It's amazing how quickly it can happen! I am sending you a request and we can motivate each other!

I went from obsessively weighing myself to not looking at the scale for over a week. It went in the closet last Tuesday and will remain there for a whole month! And I bought a pair of pants in the beginning of March that were a 10 and were a little tight. On Monday night, I went back to the store to try on new pants cause…

^^^^^ This ^^^^^ I don't want to be stuck on a lifelog ban of the foods I enjoy. Everything in moderation.

I made the mistake of starting right before TOM, like the day before, so I can't really tell. Plus, I put my scale away as not to freak myself out. So far, my clothes are fitting fine but I will definitely have to check the scale in a few weeks...

I needed to see this! You always hear how fat weighs more than muscle, but that's a misnomer. Pound for pound it's the same. But when looking at volume, muscle is more dense and takes up less space! Thanks!

Hi! I'm joining in, too! I'm 5'3.5" we all know that half an inch is so important!! LOL. I started MFP seriously about 6 weeks ago and have logged in for the last 36 days. My stats are SW (on MFP) 158 CW: 152 GW: 138 I lost 60 lbs in 2007 when I cut a bunch of bad foods out of my diet and started running. I ended up…

I'm 5'3" (and a little) and am looking to lose 15. I'll add both of you! :)

I kickbox 4 times a week and had never had that problem, until last night. I was sipping water all throughout my workout and made sure I was properly hydrated before and after. It was a lot warmer yesterday, so I didn't take into account the extra sweating. That combined with not breathing properly lead to a massive…

LOL!!! I have a friend who is a doctor and told me to go easy on the banana's because they are so high in carbs/sugar.

That doesn't sound bad, but I heard that banana's were not a friend to those trying to lose weight...

Thanks! I just get so frustrated because I am doing all the right things...

But I am afraid of over-eating... and gaining weight.

I try to spread them out through the day, but then I feel like I just sit at my desk grazing all day... at least it's fruit and veg. And I drink 2-3 full Nalgene bottles a day.

Oh, if only I like Greek yogurt. I try and try but... no luck.
