thank you so much for posting!! you have done fantastically!!!

You're absolutely right!! Thank you for those words.

so very helpful, especially the last couple parts, thanks so much. Once again, its amazing knowing i'm not alone.

Thanks for the info! I do know I'm Vitamin D deficcient, so I take a daily supplement for that. :)

tracked my food yesterday... way above my calorie limit, and that wasn't even that bad of a day for me! good wake up call... planned better today and it's looking more on track. feeling better. :)

talking to all of you definitely helps... knowing i'm not alone!! the best i've felt has been doing 80% paleo.... but i didn't lose weight on it, so it didn't stick. So what do i do now... go back to eating how i felt best, but then try and love myself with the weight? I can promise that won't happen... so what do i do???

woznube7 .... exactly!!! I do want to get better, but then i tell myself if i REALLY wanted to... then i Just would!!!... 'so apparently i DON'T want it that bad." yup. that's my conversation with myself. That I'm this miserable and still apparently don't want it bad enough. How is that even possible?!

I think you've hit the nail on the head. I think the longest I've logged food consistently was for a few weeks. then I would stop and just keep eating what I was logging (keeping my 'menu' the same all the time). Eventaully without the discipline though i would stray. I think that setting a goal, like your 2 month…

I am so sorry for your loss!!! I wish I had words to help ease your pain... :( Yes a year and a half is enough time to lose 70# ... but it didn't work for me. Being honest, I was consistent with working out, but not with counting macros. I did measure and weigh most of my food when I was on track. I need to get back to…

thank you, i will look into it. Like I said, I wouldn't ever inflict physical harm on myself. I just truly don't enjoy being in the body I have. If I were able to be successful with my efforts, then I think I'd be in a better place. It's just the constant failure of my efforts that make me think this is how i'll be…

You and I sound so much like we're on similar tracks. And to clarify, I wouldn't ever genuinely hurt myself, I could never cause that kind of pain to my husband. I do openly tell him how I'm feeling, and he worries about my self-confidence being pratically non existant. I've brought up talking to someone before, but just…

I'm actually not on depression pills, sorry if I gave the wrong impression somewhere. I'm not a fan of medications... not on birth control or anything even. They always tend to make me sick. I can do vitamins and ibuprofin. That's about it. I will go back to tracking... but it sucks to do so without any excitement. and…

thanks for the input. I have thought about counceiling, but never went through with it for one reason or other. i think i doubt that my mindset can be changed, i don't know. i have 80lbs to lose, so it's a lot. i have seen docs about hormones being out of whack, checking my thyroid, etc... so far everything always comes…

I am 26 and will be 27 in September, so larlear and i have that in common. I enjoy my job(s), as I keep myself working a minimum of 60 hours a week. I stay very busy, and in evenings my husband and I will ride our bikes, play tennis, go fishing, etc. We cancelled cable and realized how much time we spent in front of the…

You ladies are great!! I've been packing my lunches and eating within my calories for the last two weeks, but hadn't logged anything, and realized I was snacking a lot in the afternoon and that had to be throwing me off. So back to logging it is! It's literally the only thing that's worked for me, i just have to quit…

thanks for all of your input!! I think it does come down to more consistency with my food logging and just being more active all around. I do plan to get back to CF one day, but for now I just want to focus on having an active lifestyle. i did cancel my cable and that alone has made me stop sitting around so much! :)

FANTASTIC JOB!! That's about the same goal I have, thanks for the inspiration!

Oh so very fun though!!! :D

Count me in! I recently was tested and told I am borderline pre-diabetic and could also suffer from PCOS, so my endo put me on Metformin. It took me a week or more to talk myself into using it... after reading all of the side effects I really didn't want to try it. But after doing extensive workouts (even multiple…
