Weight Loss and Psychological Help
Has anybody started seeing a psychologist in order to help them with their weight loss? I saw this questionnaire about overeating from Overeaters Anonymous: http://www.oa.org/newcomers/is-oa-for-you/ I'm certainly uncomfortable with the number of questions I answered 'yes' to.

Which MyFitness Pal Ads Show Up?
I was wondering which ads come up on people's computer when they are on the site. Usually mine have to do with fitness and weight loss but once a week or so I get Papa John's ads! Today I was getting their new cheesy-bread ads (I think they said they have as much cheese as a medium pizza?!?!) and it's SO UNFAIR. I LOVE…

New Member
Hey all! I've been a member here for a little over 2 weeks and I can honestly say this is the easiest time I've ever had trying to lose weight. Usually I think about it for a week or two and then the desire just goes away. Recently I've found myself losing the craving for food, and I have no illusions about the fact that I…
