Well, I weighed in at 228 this morning.. I don't know how to get ahold of this. I just keep wanting to eat and eat. I'm trying not to get depressed, but it's really making me feel bad. Oh well, all I can do is try again, today is another chance.. I guess.
I think you may need to get involved in some type of plan such as Weight Watchers or a place where you have more of a plan than just trying to cut down on what you eat. I know that type of thing would never work for me - I'd always be "starting on Monday" and Monday would never come. I've tried it before and it just doesn't work. I joined Weight Watchers in Nov. and things are going very well for me. There are other things out there aside from Weight Watchers and the same plan doesn't work for everyone. But I think you need something more structured to get yourself on the right track. I think it would also make you more positive that you are doing something for yourself and not all alone out there in the world. This website definitely helps with support but you have to be in the right frame of mind to start with. You have to make your weight loss journey the most important thing to concentrate on.
Think about it and if you can possibly do something like this, I would advise it.
Are you keeping a food diary, Lilybug? Sometimes it's helpful to note down how you're feeling each time you eat, so you can work out whether you're genuinely hungry, or if there's something else driving you. You're welcome to join us here to help you get a handle on what you're eating.
Lilybug I know exactly how you feel. I've been there many times. Today is a new day and if you can do good today then tomorrow will be better. If you do good tomorrow the next day will be even better. It only builds from there and befor you know it you will be in a grove and losing like you want to. Just keep at it and keep a good outlook. You can do this.
I kind of stayed away last week. I gained 2 last week and lost 2 this week. So I'm still at 248. However we have done awesome this week and I think we are both back in our grove. Kimbeley will weigh in when she gets up.
