Ht. 5'7", Start: 181 lb, Today: 181 lb (BMI %tile: 93), Goal: 147 lb - I'm on day five of my current effort to lose weight, I don't want to call it a diet because I'm trying to make permanent healthy changes. I've been doing really well so far, stopping myself from emotional and comfort eating and I'm only realising how big of a problem it was for me that I was in total denial of. I'm finding it really tough today though, I'm stressed and there's lots of goodies in the house. I don't want to go near them because I know in my current mindset I'd probably just pig out and not be able to just have a small portion. I don't need it and I'm just telling myself it's not worth it. I thought I'd come on here instead of stuffing my face and I might take my dog for a walk so I get away from the food. My weigh-in day is Thursday and I really want to lose 2 pounds by then. It's so hard :(

well if its so hard maybe you should try suomething thats makes you feel better as a persson/or woman.Instead of killing yourself eating an spending long hours on the couch eating cookies,ice cream,etc.But you should exercise but do it when you want to not when others want you to.....
