or are we all struggling?


I noticed a lot of us lately posting about wanting to get back on track.. myself included.. I am not gaining, but I have a hard time losing. Is it the time of the year or something? Because it's so darn early to get in the 'holidays spirit' and put weight loss on hold. (That last sentence was me kicking myself in the pants to get back on track LOL)


Come on, let's all get serious here again and lose some weight! That would be the best holiday gift we can give ourselves.


My weekend just started now, I'll be back on Sunday to check on you ladies. I hope all of you will be doing great and really getting back on that weight loss wagon. I know I am.. don't leave me

Hi Mary,

I know that I've been stuck this week or so I thought. I weighed myself at home on Monday morning and then again this morning (Thursday), and I'm down 2 pounds! I can't believe it! For the last 2 days I haven't done the "Cookie Diet", but have drank my water and brought my lunches to work. I intend to continue my water intake and cut out soda. I hope I can continue with bringing lunches too. I want this weight OFF and need it off healthwise too.

Ladies, I wish you the best in your weight loss endeavors too.

Mary, I have noticed that too. I know for me it is just the breathing problems and the meds I am having to take to get by til I get a good job with good insurance so I can get myself straight once and for all. That was the biggest trigger for me to go back to work. My asthma is getting so out of control so I just want to do whatever it takes to keep it at bay til I have a more permanent solution, and for me unfortunatley it appears to be steroids cuz when i went off them last time the pain and breathing difficulties came right back so dr put me right back on them and now I want to eat my house. SO far I am holding steady, not gaining, not losing. I wish us all luck surviving the winter.


Personally I freaked myself out this morning before I was awake when I remembered I have to get my term paper done by (GULP) the 29th of this month and he disapproved my topic and I am struggling to come up with another. I just had to register for next term and it wouldn't let me take one of my classes I need because I haven't finished the class before it....YIKES school is getting tough now that I am down to the senior classes. BUT all will be well, we just have to keep thinking positive (okay that was my kick in my own butt there).

I have fallen off the wagon completely the last week. Now I am trying to pick myself back up again. Don't even want to weigh myself to find out

Looks like I'm not alone here :)


I am still strugling, but it's been a bit better. I know we can all do this because if we don't, what other option do we have? Stay this big (or even bigger)
