Please don't get discouraged. we all have struggles. |Just take it one hour at a time. And rejoice in every accomplishment. Remember it takes 3000 calories to make a pound so even if it doesn't seem like you are losing cutting/burning those calories will help. I treat myself to a piece of chocolate every night. Some will say you can't lose weight that way but as long as I have cut that 100 calories somewhere I else I can. I look everyday for somewhere to cut those calories and I find that I can always find a place to cut back. 1 tbsp salad dressing instead of 2. Jelly on my toast without the butter, Or an extra helping of green beens instead of the other half of my baked potato. Small steps that all add up. You can do this Trupeach, just stay with us!!
