I can’t bring myself to workout or eat right.
I’m 26 and at the highest weight of my life- 240 at 5”6. Theoretically, I want to lose weight but for the life of me, I can’t make myself workout and I keep eating poorly. My boyfriend constantly tries to push me to lose weight/work out and he doesn’t understand that I just don’t want to, so I lie to him and tell him I’ve…

Feeling crippled by weight gain.
Hi! I'm a 24 yo 5"6 female and I've been obese my entire life. I fluctuated between 200-224 in high school and in my adult life I've significantly lost weight twice. The first time my lowest was 178, the second time I went down to 190. At those weights, I looked smaller than I actually was. Even now, I don't look like I…

What do you do when you've lost all motivation?
Hi, all. Three years ago, I lost 50 pounds. I slowly but surely gained it all back. Since January of this year, I have lost 35 pounds.... Only to gain 10 back in the past couple of months.

Do you ever want to want to eat something "bad"?
Going through the "wanting to want cookies".... And other junk. Not hungry, eating healthy and I'm not craving anything, but I want to want something bad! Why? :(

I keep having dreams about eating a bunch of junk!
Hello my fellow health conscious peers, So, I have lost 35 pounds since mid January. I'm doing great. I do not deprive myself- I like to eat primarily healthy for my well being but I don't deny myself a burger and cookies one day of the week. Lately, at least 3 times a week, I've been having dreams (nightmares) that I…

Online Dating
If you were on an online dating site, and (slowly) lost a significant amount of weight since creating your profile, would you take down all the bigger pictures of yourself and replace with all new ones or add as you go?

Worried about loose skin.
Hi all. I am a 22 year old 5"6 female. Started at 222, currently 198. Goal weight 150. I carry most of my weight in my stomach and arms. I do cardio 5 times a week and strength train at least 3 times a week. I was wondering how likely am I to have loose skin in my abdomen and arms? Thanks a bunch.

My post was "warned" then taken down?
I posted about not seeing a change in a month with weight loss and posted pics. Most were helpful, but one was critical and then I got a notification that I'd been warned and now post is deleted. My progress was in my underwear, but nothing provocative or revealing. Just wanted opinions. Are you not supposed to post…

What do you do when someone gives you diet advice (that you never asked for) you disagree with?
smile and nod or tell them your opinion? I'm basically tired of people saying "You HAVE to eat before 6 in order to lose weight" or "drink only warm water or drink only cold water" or "clean eating is the only way to lose weight" Or "eating 5-6 small meals a day is the way to go". Obviously I believe in CICO, iifym. I…

Not losing weight in my stomach
Hi all! I've lost 15 pounds so far. My stomach is the most prevalent fat area and I seem to be losing everywhere but my stomach. Would core exercises help, or extra cardio? My diet is clean and I drink plenty of water.

Lost 11 lbs but feel just as fat as before.
Hi all! I have lost 11 pounds in a month. It shows on the scale but I still feel like a big blob. I'm 5"6, started at 222 and I'm now 211z Also, my weight loss feels slow. I've lost 50 pounds before, all in 4 months. I have a knee injury now and a very hectic schedule so I don't have time to do as much exercise before and…

Is it bad if I only eat about 1000 calories a day?
My trainer says that for my height and weight (5"6 and 220 lbs) I should eat about 1800 calories a day. I eat breakfast, snack, lunch, snack and dinner... Yet usually average about 1000 calories a day, 1200 max. I also exercise 3X a week. TIA!

Amys frozen food?
Hi guys! So I know eating unprocessed, fresh food is the best thing.. But I am always on the go and cannot cook. Is amys frozen food ok to eat at least once a day, for lunch? It says no preservatives, organic and I try to pick the low sodium and "light and lean" options. I'm also a fan of their soups. Anyone lost weight…

How often do you indulge? And how often do you exercise?
Hi there! I'm going through the weight loss process all over again. I'm an almost 22 year old night school student who is a daytime nanny.. When I am not exercising I am very sedentary.

Anyone else argue with the negative voice in their head?

This time I will succeed!
Hi everyone, I'm Dominique! Countless times I have tried crash diets, only to go to extremes and rapidly gain it all back. Almost everyone who has lost a significant amount of weight attributes it to losing it slowly and writing down what they ate. Why has it taken me so long to listen?! I am only 20 years old but at 5'6…
