Biggest hurdle to overcome in weightloss: staying focused; resisting spur-of-the-moment temptations to go off the rails "just for now" in hopes that I can compensate for it afterwards
Following any specific plan: not really; I'm trying for a balanced 1200 calories per day, and a serious workout four to five times a week.
What is different this time in your weight loss efforts than in the past: I've come here looking to share the experience with others in hopes it'll help keep me focused on the task at hand!
