I've gained 10 of the near 35 I lost back. I made excuses to myself saying that if I lost too much weight, I wouldn't fit in to my bridesmaids dresses from those two weddings and it would cost money for alterations. It was an excuse and all summer I ate what I wanted. And watched the scale go up. I'm still down 25 from when I started, but I'm disappointed in myself. I need help again. I have 50 pounds I need to lose by next Septembern. PLEASE HELP!

So I've discovered Almonds. 1/4 cup a day is only 170 cal and makes a great morning snack and wards off the lunch hunger pains when I don't get to eat lunch until 2 or 3pm. Hopefully, this will also help with my high cholesterol. I mentioned in my status that I'm learning to listen to my body more about food. I don't like to feel miserable after eating, so I learned to recognize when my stomach was getting full. And I've been able to stop eating what's on my plate. Sometimes it amazes me that I'...

So I went over my "target" for calories today. Only by a few hundred calories, but my "lunch" was 1000 calories in itself (over estimated). I was invited to a Thanksgiving buffet. It was really nice all different kinds of food, and I didn't eat a love of it, it was the chocolate cake and rice krispie treats that did me in. :( I feel sick because of it. But I still need to eat dinner cuz I'm heading to my 2nd job from 6-930. I'm taking tomorrow off (from my main job) so that I can get some things...

So I've recently had to obtain a 2nd job. I'm working at the Sears in the Mall. I work 9-5 at the university, then 6-930 at sears. I also work 8 hours or more on weekends. My husband is doing the same thing. 2 jobs, 10 hour days for the union he belongs to and 530-930 at Sears (he works weekends too). Its so frustrating. I haven't been tracking my food over the weekend. and I haven't really had a hot meal in a while. I updated my diets from the weekend today. Neither of us are home enough to coo...

I don't hunt but every man in my family does. Almost every day someone is bringing home a deer. :) That means deer jerky, and I love it. I went to my uncle's house to watch the Penguin Game last night. The minute I opened the door, i could smell deer meat. It was delicious. I had 4 pieces. More than I should have, but I've been doing very well watching my diet over the past 4 months so i don't think its a problem. This is a treat. My worries are for the holidays. Thanksgiv...

I'm addicted to Pepsi. I can go without Coke, and would rather drink water than coke, but Pepsi is something that makes me salivate. I don't drink it much, but when I do i can go overboard. We buy packs, or cubes of pepsi and dt. mt. dew. Pepsi is my treat, my reward. And a lot of the time I don't finish a whole can or bottle, which is a waste, but I just can't help it. I love the stuff.
I'm concerned and would like some help on this. I just got a second job working at the mall. I'm worried ...

My weight loss journey is for health and self-esteem. My husband and I are having problems and its stressing me out. Work is really stressing me out. I'm trying to get really healthy so that eventually, when we have our relationship on stable ground, we can try starting a family. Its so hard to look to that future being that we're struggling without a family. I love my husband and I need him, and his support as minimal as that is. I need to keep pushing through the pain and the stress and not g...

I'm new and I need help being held accountable. I'm 25 years old and used to have a smoking bod. I've always been a little bit huskier than my friends but i was slim, healthy and muscular. I weighed 135 throughout middle school and highschool, at 5'6", that's where I wish I was now. The truth of the matter is that I've not held my self accountable since I graduated highschool. I was super active, varsity volleyball and track team. I played church league softball and had a part-time job. I w...
