Mine is consistency. I start with a plan and it eventually falls by the side of the road. Anyone else strugglewith this?
 
oh yea! consistancy is a huge problem for me! I've gotten better at it since I've adopted my "one day at a time" motto!
 
I'm a terrible binge eater. I'll eat a spoonful of ice-cream and then think "Well damn, I've already blown it for today..." and then I'll just go crazy and eat it all >_>
 
Consistency and shopping for the right foods... the cheapo value crapo meals are tough for me to resist.
 
"What's your biggest weight loss challenge?"

My biggest challenge is to start a diet, and to stop "killing me" slowing with sweets.

Than i have many challange...but not so hard, i think it's different.
 
Getting my head around the fact that if I stay the same weight for a few days it's not a failure and it's not cause to say "sod it" and stuff my face
 
My biggest challenge is not too eat too little, surprisingly enough. For some reason, I am rarely hungry now, other than *after* I have eaten something, so I'm kinda reluctant to eat.

That, and I hate cooking. Makes it difficult to get meals that are okay, nutrition wise, because all the pre-packed stuff just doesn't really work, no matter it says 'Healthy' or 'low calories' on the box....
 
Mine was easily my mental state. It was just hard to get over a lot of mental and subconcious hurdles. It was like my mind was working against me. I have been spending a lot of time trying to change my outlook and habits and it has helped me so far.
 
I never grew out of the stage where candy was the most delicious thing to consume at any time in the world. So it's hard for me to say no to candy..and halloween time when my little sister was out and brough home a bunch of candy (she's 3, so she obviously could'nt eat a lot of the stuff), I had a ball..then had to work my ass on the treadmill hahah.

So candy is my biggest slip up...and probably dining out.. My family dines out A LOT... so it's hard to see all those foods you really want to have and have to stick to the healthy stuff. haha, but thusfar I've been successful with it. =)
 
Mine is staying motivated. I will train hard and watch what I eat closely for a few weeks, then just die out and not care anymore. Its really easy to skip the gym after work and eat everything I want.
 
Willpower!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have never had it. temptation is my vice. If the food is there, I can't walk away from it. Much easier to keep it away in the first place...

That being said... I have never been able to keep a streak running at exercise either, and this time I've been ging to the gym for a month solid.

I've never been able to quit smoking... this time I have been cigarette free for 4 weeks...

Maybe... just maybe... this time I'll find the willpower to watch what I eat change my lifestyle.
 
Mine is the consistancy thing with exercise. Also getting enough calories. I know I could easily get in more with junk food, but I think thats not the best of ideas.
 
My thing is I absolutely refuse to eat past 6 pm and since I live with a family that eat their main meals late late at night it's so so difficult! And it's always my favorite foods... I had to give up chicken chunks from the deli where I work at and recently my family have discovered them so I get to see them eat it right in front of me... ugh!!
I thought chocolate or even pizza would be my biggest challenge but I hardly ever actually miss them, it's weird.
 
My biggest challenge is rolling out of bed. I just don't want to. Motivation and will power are not two words that I comprehend. And emotional/boredom eating. That is when I eat the most, when the boredom gets the best of me or I am upset. And couple that with the obsession I have with pasta and sweets, ruination. LOL
