{{hugs}} I feel empathy in so many ways. I had the huge wake-up call with thinking I was being "realistic", as well. For me (I have to repeat this) FOR ME, becoming obsessive is the only thing that works. I'm a little all or nothing, I guess. I'm all for being more realistic when I reach my goal weight, but while I'm actively achieving that goal, I have to be very narrow-minded about the calories I take in. I'm so sorry that you are feeling defeated. Beating yourself up definitely isn't the answer (but I somehow get the impression that you know that), but maybe you can use the feelings that you have as a wake-up to buckle down to get where you want to be?

I totally hate to look at pictures of myself! And on June 13th my son graduates high school. So of course there will be plenty of picture-taking going on! So hoping we both "lose a little" from our midsection and smile pretty for our pictures! Let's do this!!

I'm so happy that you're not in a writing slump, I'm a fan of your posts!I've been feeling very "meh" over the last week and am looking to add some variety/ spice to my life. I feel like I've been eating the same food for years (it's only been a few weeks) and just need something to get me motivated. Maybe a trainer isn't a bad idea. But anyways- thanks for your posts!

Okay! Good goal :) You had better let us know how you're doing with sticking to your calorie goal, come Saturday!BTW - As a fellow screenwriter (I assume, based on your attendance of a workshop?) I'm available for trading pages/feedback, if you're looking for some constructive criticism.

PDXJael

@TrixieCatLAX - I did it! And honestly, if I hadn't been thinking of your orders to report back I probably would have splurged last night. Stuck to my calorie goals all 5 weekdays and the scale rewarded me with a huge 1.5 lb drop this morning!
