Persnal goal to take care of our world! Need your support!
Hello Fellow MFPers! If you have read my profile you know that last year I had a major scare. I lost the use of my legs. I had been having some back problems and one morning I got out of bed and the pain was so intense I almost threw up and passed out. Little did I know but two hours later when I tried to stand my legs…

This tells you how addicted I have become...
So, everyday I workout at lunch. The gym is right across the parking lot from work so it's very easy. I just grab my gym bag and my car keys (you give them keys they give you a locker key, when you leave you give them their key back and you get yours). I leave my purse and phone in my office and lock it. Today I get into…

Score - Weekend (O) Jessica (1)! 2 Rounds to go!
Ok, so the weekends are always hard for me, with family and friend activities. Well last night my boyfriend made his yummy chicken wings (they are the best ever)!

Good gracious!! Learn from my mistakes!
Ok, so, I'm still dealing with one of my big issues... I'm great during the week, but if I'm going out on the weekend I will have too many drinks then when I get home at 2am I need food.

The hanging belly!
Ok, so... I know there has been discussion here before about the excess skin after weight loss and the concern if it will go away... I have recently realized that one of my self sabotaging thoughts was that since my belly hangs down (and even folds over! :embarassed: ) I will still have that folded hanging skin once I lose…

Help! I'm addicted to the scale!
Ok, I admit it! Possibly even worse than my food addiction is my scale addiction! I weigh myself almost every day. And even though I try to tell myself that the number on the scale doesn't matter, that the fact that I'm eating healthy and working out is what matters, it still does. If I don't lose anything I'm stil…
