It's ok to splurge once in awhile .3 isn't bad. You will lose it in a flash. The more you worry about gaining or losing weight the more it will become an issue just make it a part of your life. Wow I sound like a motivational speaker lol.

Got in a good workout today, weighed myself & apparently it says I've gained a couple pounds this week but I think its just me gaining muscle

Had a small personal victory last night - instead of having chips/cookies/chocolate etc for snack last night I had a bowl of baby carrots & a greek yogurt veggie dip yummyyyyyyy

SUCCESS!

Its small but gotta start somewhere

Had my first workout for the week and it felt good; the scale says I've lost 2 lbs *YAY*

Its the small successes that mean the most, and for me that was a victory in itself

I am tired of thinking about food, calories and the scale. I have lost 23lbs. I worked ALL SUMMER for this. Can't say I want junk food or processed food, but I sure am sick of it. now what?

Getting more sleep and working out at least 30 minutes a day is key. Also I eat grapefruit about twice a day and it speeds up the metabolism hardcore burning off the food you just ate.

I love giving advice on weight loss and keeping in shape, it is my passion and my love. Good luck to everyone on living a healthy lifestyle and let me know if you need any advice.

I need to learn to do some of these things; I'd like to look into Weight Watchers, possibly start going to meetings if I'm able to afford it. I have a book full of all sorts of foods and their WW points values which I think will help alot if I do get to join. I already buy the magazines and try to use as much from them as I can but sometimes I admit that I don't always stick to my guns. I've started working out again and so far in a week have lost about 5 pounds which I think is very good since I hadn't been to the gym in the previous 3 months. I'm working towards drinking more water and staying away from pop (which has always been my downfall) and am making it a point of just making smarter decisions with my nutrition as well other things
