Getting my hormones together while I battle stress and fatigue.

OK, you guys have requested more details... I guess the basic details are: 1. We weigh in weekly. If you don't want to put your actual weight, you can still log (0.000) and then use that as a reference point. So, if you lose 2 pounds your next weigh in will say -2.00 pounds. 2. We like to encourage and chat with each other…

What are you MOST proud of Today?
I find it helpful to aim for something to be proud of each day... Maybe it would help you guys too. Today I am proud of the fact that I got up and got moving even though I didn't feel like it. :-) It's hard to get moving but once I DO, it is sooooo worth it. I have to remember that the times I don't want to "Just Do it"

It starts in the KITCHEN: what'd you eat today!?
Ok, so my diet has been the hardest party of this journey... people have different struggles. For some it's the gym. For some it's the plate. I read one quote that said something like...
