"Commitment Club"

Everyone's doing so well! *does a little dance*

I feel like I slacked off this weekend, and I did. But I love knowing that one day of not great eating doesn't affect the whole week. I still weigh the same I did on Saturday morning. :) It gives me more confidence, you know? To not freak out and give up if I eat too much for supper, or splurge and have a couple of glasses of pepsi.:)
 
I'd like to join here, too. I've tried and failed before, but that's because I was dieting. This time is permanent, because I'm not dieting, I've changed the way I see myself. I am worth this. I am more important than junk food. I have te right to feel good. And I'm not going anywhere until I reach my goal.
 
Awsome work everyone I can see this is helping a lot of us! We all can and will do this!
 
Hey everyone! I swear I'm still here, I'm just in North Carolina at the moment but I'll be back tommorow.
 
I suppose I'm in by default - I stopped cutting three months ago, but I'm still here!

Shrinking - thats the attitude that I have. I want more and more fitness, and never want to go back to where I was. I still take care to make sure that my staple diet is clean, nutritous and healthy, go to gym 3-4 times per week, cross country running 1-2 times per week, and dog walking everyday. No greasy truckstop burger is worth how I feel when I'm running!

I want to join.

count me in this time please. i have to stick to it this time. it will be good for me.
 
School loves to keep me busy, but I'm still here working on me.

I haven't weighted in about 2 or 3 weeks. One because my scale needs a new battery and two, because I feel like I need to trust that I am doing the right things and that going down in clothes sizes is more important that numbers.

I've got to get more strict with myself. That is my goal for this month.
 
hey guys, there have been so many ups and downs since september, but i'm in this more than i've ever been in my life-count me in and this the year that i finish it!

I am so glad your still with us keep rocking!:D
 
Awsome I love it you guys are checking in and doing so well!
 
Still here! Down another 4 pounds this week, and feeling great.

Hope everyone else is feeling good about themselves.
 
Will join. I'm definitely planning on taking advantage of this forum to lose weight. There is a fountain of knowledge in here and people who know so much that it would be such a waste to come here once and never return.

I'm 100% committed. I'll be checking in once a week because I don't want to become "addicted" to the forum. I want to start leading a more active life and that sort of involves me stepping away from the computer. ;)
 
Hey again everyone!

So, I haven't been on for about a month :( But I'm back now and want to recommit!!! With your help I know I can do this.

Looks like you are all doing great :) keep it up

I've been MIA over holiday but I'm still committed. Only gained half a pound over the holidays, which I suspect I've worked off by now...or at least hoping. But I ate breakfast this morning before I got to work so I couldn't weigh in...it'll have to wait til Monday.

Keep up the great work everybody!!! *hugs* :)
 
Still here, and still feeling great. I've actually lost over the holidays, which is amazing to me, but I've said it a million times -- this is a lifestyle change, not a diet, and so I can't dread holidays and special events for the rest of my life. If I gain, I gain. If I lose, I lose, and if I stay the same, I stay the same. Most of my personal battle with weight has to do with accepting myself, not knowing what to eat or not. I have lots of "willpower" when I believe that I'm worth it, that I'm more important than the food that's in front of me. I love the saying, "nothing tastes as good as being thin feels". My personal mantra for this journey is "I'm worth it". Knowing that I have complete control over what does and doesn't go into my body is key... it keeps me from snacking and feeling out of control, and also from the "all or nothing" attitude that I've struggled with in the past. I'm more than how I look and what I weigh, but putting myself first means doing everything I can do feel good and be healthy.

Gosh, I'm sure wordy today, but it helps to write this because I can go back and read it again.
 
I gained the 7 lbs that I lost :( I don't know exactly what happened. I'm ready to fight though and I'm going to beat this once and for all!!!!!

It happens. Especially because of the holidays. I gained between 3 and 5, but lost it now. Just think that you did it once, and you can do it now again, and it will be easier because you already know what your body needs to lose it.
