Thanks RodaRose. I'm trying to find ways to cut down on my activities and refocus on fewer things. I don't sleep during the commute as I take several different buses and a train - none of the lengths of time are long enough to get a good nap in. I end up meditating, and that at least seems to help keep my stress under…

Yep. Considered. I garden. Still don't like eating blood or something that could hypothetically be my pet. Post still not about getting into a debate about vegetarianism. Post still about just working healthy eating/exercising into my life. Mentioned being mostly vegetarian for convenience's sake for people with real…

Add me! Rejuvenating my efforts and trying to get past a plateau.

23 and overweight! You've come to the right place! :)

Be neater. Be who you are. If you don't know who you "truly are", stop obsessing over it. Dump him when at that 2-week mark you mutter to yourself about how unimpressed you are with his personality. You'll save 6 1/2 years of misery. Save your money and keep the office job. You don't really want to be a musician. Lift…

I have this problem too! I love baking but have to banish practically everything I make to the freezer so I don't eat it. Forgive me for just tagging along for the replies! :flowerforyou:

Awesome! Just replying so I can refer back to this! Heh. :bigsmile:

"Steer" us wrong... I see what you did there... Heh.

Been there, done that, girl! It can be VERY intimidating to head into the weight room for the first time. Get yourself a super simple routine, realize that no one is really caring about what you're doing in there, and just go in and do it. Your confidence will build over time, but it is definitely an exercise in getting…

Diagnosed about 2 years ago! Trying to lose weight again, more this time, and keep it off. Add me!

I have PCOS. I have found it most effective to eat at a calorie deficit (currently 1200 per day) and avoid processed/packaged foods. And honestly, psychologically keeping the consequences of NOT losing weight with this syndrome in mind every day helps a lot (i.e. I want to have kids). Losing weight will help symptoms of…

I'd like more friends too! We're around the same age. I'm 23, just graduated university (still a student in a certificate program though) and am trying to get down to 50kg to help with various health problems. Only been tracking for the past 8 days, but have had good results, losing about 4kg! Congratulations on your…

As someone who has tried to diet with her overweight mother as a sort of bonding thing (and had a similar mismatch of styles), I'm sorry to say that you've just got to do what works for you. Your weight loss is ultimately about *your* health. You may inspire her to change her views if you do what is healthy and lose weight…
