FOTOWEIGHTLOSS added an entry about lose weight : Sounds like a lot of people are being hard on themselves. :( EVERYONE messes up now and then. Throughout my weight loss process, I did too. The key is to get back on track immediately and not ruin the rest of the day or week. I’ve lost over 40lbs. and have kept it off over 3 years. Stay positive and honest with yourself and don’t obsess over your “mistakes”. HAVE A FUN AND SAFE FOURTH OF JULY !!! :)

feorag added an entry about lose weight : I can do that. I want to get back to my comfortable weight of 140 pounds. I’m 5’10”. Right now I weigh 165, my clothes are tight, and I feel sluggish. Besides that, I weighed only 150 pounds when I was 9 months pregnant! It just ain’t right to weigh 15 pounds more than you did when you were 9 months pregnant!

tc1980 added an entry about lose weight : Today has been hard…I managed to stay within my calorie limit but I’m still not happy about what I ate.

I was feeling so in control and then a bad day at work ruins it. I am just feeling so discouraged. I keep thinking…why wasn’t I happy when I was 15 pounds lighter. It feels like it’s so far away and I know that I can do it…it’s just depressing to not be there right now. How did I let it get to this?

xcircex added an entry about lose weight : eh, not being the most disciplined in this area. my son is now 4 months old.

foreverHoping added an entry about lose weight : I did go to the mall with my friends, and they all got In and Out Burger. I was prepared for this though, I said I already had dinner at home, so I didn’t want anything, but the food smelled sooooo good, and they were purposely wafting it at me… Bitches… So I ate about 5 fries, took a sip of someones smoothie (Strawberry, my weakness), and ate half of the smallest burger they had, with only cheese. I calculated my entire calories for the day, and it only went up to about 450.

michaelbryne added an entry about lose weight : awww man, it’s just waaaay to hard to get out of bed at 6:30 am, its just so chilly outside and so warm in my bed, but I am determined to make it to the gym in this morning at least once this week! Went this evening though, was a bit of fun, worked through my new exercise program fully for the first time (excluding one exercise I couldnt remember the proper form for) and spent a bit of time on the bikes.
