| i know exactly how that feels. last christmas i bought a scale. i knew i had gained some weight, and thought i was around 260. wrong. i weighed 287.5 lbs. i was shocked and appalled. i decided i wouldn't let that number get any higher. i immediately started counting calories and exercising at least 5 days per week for at least 40 minutes. by valentine's day i was down 15 lbs, and by 4th of july i had lost 50. it has been coming off sloooowly since then, i have lost 60 lbs now, and can't tell you how much better i look and feel. just make the decision to take control right now, and you will be fine:-) {{{{{{hugs}}}}} | |||

| i work in a hospital, and most hospitals i have been to have healthy options in the cafeteria. i know how you feel about meal planning while you are there. my daughter has had many surgeries, and i always end up eating whatever junk i can get my hands on, since all of your time is devoted to your child. good luck, and i hope everything goes smoothly:-) | |||

| katethegreat- i know exactly where you are coming from. i have lost over 50 lbs and when i look in the mirror i see a big difference. i think i look so much better than i used to, and i like what i see. my cousin e-mailed me some pics from a bbq we had this summer, and i looked fatter than ever! like i never lost a lb! it made me really upset. i showed a few of my close friends the pics and asked "do i really look this way?' they said no of course since they are my friends, but i have become more insecure after seeing myself in pictures. it has made me really shy away from cameras since then, because i don't know how many more ugly fat photos i can bear to look at! | |||

| i am also having a very hard time breaking through a plateau. i have lost 50 lbs as of june, but the scale has not budged since! i work out at least once a day, eat no more than 1200 calories daily (any more makes me gain, my metabolism hates me) and still no weight loss! let me know if you find anything that works! i'm getting pissed! | |||

| you can absolutely indulge every once and a while. if you are craving something, have just a little. it you deprive yourself day in and day out, you are setting yourself up for a binge. so i say, if you are craving salmon and bread, have some! just pay attention to your portions. | |||
