Welcome to the diary forum at weight-loss forum!

Wow I made lots of errors. Should've checked that before I posted it. Sorry!

So I managed to make it all the way through the night without giving in to my sugar cravings. I truly believe that has been one of my greatest downfalls.

I got up and drank water this morning. Then I had my coffee though. And I always screw up with that. But drinking the water first did seem to help me because for the first time I feel like my coffee is too sweet. I don't add sugar. Just almond joy creamer. So I'm thinking maybe tomorrow I could cut it back to regular creamer and go from there.

You know, there may not be anyone out there who reads this, but just having somewhere to post my accomplishments knowing there's a chance that someone could read it, makes me feel so much more motivated. It seems to give me a sense of accountability. Now it's out there so I can't go back now.

So glad this forum is available for people like me.

Your diary — How it works

The diary is an invaluable aid in reaching your target-weight. Putting your goals in writing will motivate you tremendously in achieving them. That’s the success secret of weight-loss groups — and what works in these groups will work just as well on the Internet.

Try the following tips:

1. Answer these questions before starting your diary.

-- How much weight do you want to lose?

-- What is the timeframe for reaching your target weight?

-- How do you want to accomplish your goal (what methods do you want to use)?

-- Who or what can support you in reaching your goal?

-- How realistic is your goal?

-- When will you start?

(Suggestion: print this page and think about the questions when you have a few moments of peace and quiet.)

2. Post the answers to these questions in your weight-loss.fitness.com diary. This exercise will make your goals come to life and feel more realistic.

3. Begin your own diary. Simply click on the “New Thread” button, put your name and “diary” in the subject field (e.g., “Sandra’s diary”) and type your goals into the message box. Make sure to include your starting weight — be honest, it will help you and other members.

4. Stick to it! Once you begin your diary, you’ve already accomplished a huge step toward your target weight — but you must use it regularly. It’s wise to write in your diary on a daily basis, especially at the beginning of the process. Record successes and failures. Ask other members for advice and share your feelings. You’ll notice how helpful and supportive your diary will become.

The team at weight-loss.fitness.com wishes you the best of luck in reaching your goals!
