A Thanksgiving feast or occasional birthday cake isn't the culprit here, just part of living (within reason). Exercise is great, but food matters a lot more for weight loss.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19464497.post-34698172466502703522009-08-06T13:55:04.454-05:002009-08-06T13:55:04.454-05:00You might want to try a lower-carb approach to you...You might want to try a lower-carb approach to your diet, as it tends to reduce those sugar/starch cravings that plague many of us. I know that when I limit my carb sources to veggies, fruits, and a small amount of whole grains I feel much less desire to binge on sweets or chips. Just a thought from someone who's been doing this a while :)Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12610611633437823965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19464497.post-29061740466863797082009-08-06T13:48:52.850-05:002009-08-06T13:48:52.850-05:00Every person and every 'body' is different...Every person and every 'body' is different. You can not compare yourself to others. It serves no constructive purpose. [been there, done that]<br /><br />Go at your own pace and with rules you can stick to. It may take you longer, but you will get down that road and then stay there. That's [staying there] is more important than speed.<br /><br />Holding your own right now, is great. Maintaining is a victory in itself. People fail to see that. But, if you can hold and not gain, it really is a measure of success. When you're ready, you'll set new rules and get yourself going again.antgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15292057889814780426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19464497.post-36146216194576152332009-08-05T21:11:41.802-05:002009-08-05T21:11:41.802-05:00I hear you.

I wasn't diving off the deep end, but I was certainly not on program. It was the indulgences that did it. Sometimes you have to just stop and return to the basics form whence you started to get back on track and kick the indulgences to the curb.<br /><br />But stop comparing yourself to others. It does you no good and only serves to deprive you of motivation and confidence. We all are unique in our lives and in our struggle to lose the weight. You will get there. Just don't quit!Kimberlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08301763232264453237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19464497.post-15644879626796237882009-08-05T12:43:53.325-05:002009-08-05T12:43:53.325-05:00Don't compare yourself to others.

Celebrate their losses, but analyze yourself on your own terms. <br /><br />I started comparing myself to others as I wasn't losing as fast as I wanted to, and I got into some really, ugly negative thinking way too fast.<br /><br />You know what to do!johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13033212669785433659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19464497.post-64698342127661174562009-08-05T10:42:38.767-05:002009-08-05T10:42:38.767-05:00It's good that you're recognizing the patt...It's good that you're recognizing the pattern now, when it's still controlable. It's so hard to get back into it once you're off for a while. Don't compare yourself to other dieters though! Everyone loses at their own pace. You know you're doing awesome, and that's all that matters. <br /><br />Also, you're not dating your diet. Even though I read that post from Tony and agreed with the message, I think most of us are okay with our imperfections in this dieting game as long as we can reign it in right after. You're already aware of the problem and fixing it, so I think your diet's cool with the handjob. :)Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18446240453044714146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19464497.post-91363823674940754852009-08-05T10:21:53.511-05:002009-08-05T10:21:53.511-05:00Hang in there friend.

He has earned it For most of us will power ebbs and flows. If you can hold your own and even make smaller progressions during the tought times, you will be ready to pounce when you feel that iron will return.Fat Daddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13267758152539859094noreply@blogger.com
