Hey Everyone!
I've been trying to lose 20lbs for some time now and am having no luck. I only have myself to blame. Whenever I get down 10lbs, I sabotage myself and gain it all back in a week. Does this happen to anyone else?
I'm hoping that by joining this message board, and having to be accountable to someone, it will help me get where I want to be. I've thought about joining WW just for the meetings but I know I am capable of doing it on my own without having to pay a bunch of money. I just need to be accountable! So, if anyone out there wants to be my accountability buddy, let me know!

Scale was up last few days at 161 due to TOM. Today I am at 159 and trying to shed the rest of the TOM bloat. Calorie intake has been good this week despite many cravings.

Not getting my usual exercise, because I'm painting my daughter's room. And it's too hot. And insert excuse here. But I'm also not eating more than I need, so probably good if I maintain a week or so... Five pounds every week would not be conducive to avoiding the loose skin issue anyway.

In this corner, we have Last Dance, weighing in at 142 lbs on Monday July 29, 2013!
(She's been out of the ring for quite some time and we can certainly tell by the muffin top she's sporting. She seems to be optimistic though. You've got to give her that. Well, let's see what she can do.)
