Just do it for. Put yourself first. Absolutely first. And that means when you go out with friends and when you go out with Crush to not use that as an excuse to eat any different. That means just odering the appetizer and the soup and a glass of wine and leave the main if the others were rich enough. <br /><br />Sister! you can do this. I used sparkpeople which is free and lost 14 pounds and well, now I am in maintenance mode, but I just decided to go for 4 more pounds so I have a nice buffer zone :)<br /><br /><br />The bottom line I learned is: If you want to be serious about it, EVERY damn morsel you put into your mouth, put in whatever online tracker you use. I mean, even the half a stick of carrot...every thing. I found that incredibly telling. If I had a bit of chocolate, I tracked it, everything and that's when the weight really came off....<br /><br />I did combine it with exercising, but it was 80% food and 20% exercising overall. being honest with yourself. I also followed a ton of motivational fitness and weightloss folks in instagram which often post these awesome message that really made me smile and encouraged me :)Fabulously Alwayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18415426705611682839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8661251715457709926.post-38262899938782600042013-04-12T18:01:12.289-07:002013-04-12T18:01:12.289-07:00It is so true! Nick is such an asshole, I can'...It is so true! Nick is such an asshole, I can't even handle it. HE IS THE WORST. But, equally as bad as many I have dated, who were ALSO the worst. I am proud of you for being healthy for you.<br /><br />As for me, I won't even be looking at the numbers....it is just that at my heaviest ever....I was 5 pounds less than I am now and I am a bit afraid as if I don't contain it now......I just fear it is going to get totally out of control! <br /><br />I will try to follow the program and maybe just maybe it will work!

Lately, I'...You gotta find what works for you. Lately, I've just been as diligent as I can. The insult from Nick dings in the back of my mind, and combined with my own insecurity, it keeps me from doing things I know I will regret later. It probably also helps that I get really sick after eating pizza, certain Thai food dishes, and bread. Which all happen to be some of my most favorites. <br /><br />Oh well. I think that as long as the goal is to be healthy and happy, NOT focusing on just the numbers, you will be good. Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04106092363732337130noreply@blogger.com
