Default What is your commitment to weight loss?

I thought it was time for a poll (and feel free to discuss) regarding our commitment to weight loss. Sometimes mine isn't where it should be...I make decsions that sabotage, or I get afraid when I am close to onederland...but I think I have realized this is a life-long thing for me. With ups and downs.

Heya Belle, I am in this for life. I have been doing this with it's up and downs for 4 years now (more like 6, but with WW for four years). I know there will be times where this won't be a priority (pregnancy, or emotional traumas etc), sometimes it just can't be, but I am trying to get into good habits that will get me through bad times (and pregnant times, yes I'll need to gain, but not that much).

I have NEVER given up through this. I have never thought once "damn this I'll gain back all my weight because this is too hard". Accepting ups and downs is important too, I get frustrated and annoyed, but I know my body deserves to be treated with respect; it's the only one I have.

Cheers!

Ali
