  • I just came back today and found all of these nice messages. I've pulled my head out of my *kitten*. I am tracking again. I have stopped pity eating, comfort eating, and just plain over-eating. I realize that the only way I am going to be healthy again is to take charge of my health myself. The doctors mean well, but they…

  • Well, the thing about Weight Watchers is that it does teach you how to eat right. They focus a lot on healthy eating, and the points values they create really put portion size into perspective.

  • I also did Weight Watchers. I just cancelled my account recently. It does work, yes. However, I have found the community here to be much more supportive.

I am right now fighting for health and am about to have back surgery. I lost about 39 lbs last year but have gained back 15 since finding out that I have a…

  • This is interesting for me, as I have to take pain medication right now as I am supposed to have surgery on the 3rd. I wonder sometimes how much water weight I am carrying, but I know that the pain meds make me lose my inhibitions too. I hate it.

  • Hello there! Nice to meet you! I am kind of the same. I am very good at eating during the week, and then when I get to the weekend, I tend to splurge on dinner with my fiance, who just never gains weight! Hope you are having a good day. Jen
