When I'm wearing my glasses it's definitely Tina Fey. Not sure if that's a good thing or not. Who is your celebrity twin?

Has anyone lost and regained?
I lost 60 lbs in one year by exercising and counting calories. I was 8 lbs away from my goal then, I became a stay at home mom for 11 months. I was really depressed with not working and regained 35 lbs in that short time. I'm working again so that should help, but I can't seem to get my emotional eating under control. Now…

Mid Life Crises at 30?

Depressed. Having a pity party... :(
I've lost 54 lbs in 9 1/2 months, but when I look at the charts I'm still overweight. Some days I feel like I've done so good then, I see my pics. I'm not as fat as I once was. I haven't weighed 144 lbs since I was 18 yrs old, but it's not enough by todays standards. At 5'2 and a half I should weigh a lot less. People say…

FAT BB'S?
Since I have lost weight I can feel little nodules under my skin on my thighs. If you press them hard enough they squish. You can't see them from the outside, but rubbing my legs makes me think of bubble wrap. Is this cellulite? Are theses fat deposits? Are they lymph nodes? Can I diminish these fat bb's with more exercise…

DISCOURAGED
I've actually lost a total of 44 lbs, but I'm still overweight by BMI calculations. I've had to buy new clothes which was fun at first. I see pics of the new me and I'm still fat. I felt like I had come so far, but in reality I'm only halfway there. This is such a long process for me. My husband lost over 100 lbs in 7…

Hello my name is Aimee & I'm addicted to food
I am slowly learning to get healthy, but food is always on my mind. I hope that one day I can stop obsessing over it so much! The hardest thing to limit is alcohol. A couple of beers helps to ease the stress of two kids & a job w/ the public but it's oh soo bad for you! How do you deal?

Haters/sabotage
Do you have people who always say negative stuff? Like you are gonna fall of the bandwagon. Also they try to sabotage my diet by giving me chocolate. I give it back! I refuse to be fat forever!

Holidays & food
How do you handle the holidays? Do you eat small portions or do you indulge for one day? Extra time at the gym or stick to your guns? The upcoming holidays will be my first time ever trying to get healthy. I worry about my willpower...

Can seem to deal with the 1200 Calories a day-stress eater
