Low Self-Esteem Day

**Sorry! This video isn't inspirational at all. In fact, it's kind of a downer. I guess it's like that sometimes.**
I'm afraid to eat anything but fruits and veggies.
I don't know how to lose weight without being extreme.
And that's not going to work for me long-term.

I totally feel the same way about how all my friends can eat w.e they want but I think I have it figured out! They eat portions... where as I eat 3 times the portions... meaning they have 1 hotdog? where I'll eat 2... I'm going to try to stick to portion sizes frrom now on... theyre there for a reason lol.

Most of my skinny friends eat the same exact thing that I do. But I have to remind myself that they are already skinny...they're not trying to lose weight. I am. So I shouldn't be eating the same as them. And you're right, portion control is everrrything.

Okay I'm no expert but you can eat every 2-3 hours, feel full, and STILL lose weight! I'm finally posting a few "what I eat" videos. I'm editing my breakfast vid now. Come on Trace pull out of it I KNOW you can do it......please please please keep going. Don't make me drive up there and beat you down! lol j/k You need to plan out a menu for the week and stick to it and NO it doesn't have to be rabbit food....I promise!

Tracie, don't be so hard on yourself! Although I am 170 pounds I am having the same problems. I have been the same size for three months. I stop scaling myself. I don't know how much I weigh now! I don't even care! I just exercise and try to eat healthier. Trust me...I know how and what you are feeling! Delta Love.....

Don't give up! I've lost 35 pounds in 6 months by exercising 1 1/2" hours a day for 4 to 5 day's a week. 1/2 hr on treadmill, 1/2 hr on elliptical & 1/2 hr lifting 5 to 8 pound weights. It is a LIFE STYLE change not a quick fix. You must understand that this is not a race, stick with it hun. I've been big then small back to big and now small again (thank GOD). Eating fruits & Veggie's is not a bad thing; you just have to adjust. I crave healthy food now cause my body feels good and wants it.

Girl, on the real, we have all had a day or two like you are experiencing. Losing weight is hard and I too want to find the "thing" for my body. I know this day will pass for you and you will be back to your happy self but know it is normal to feel this way. JUST DON'T GIVE UP!!! We are all cheering your name.

First & foremost, you are beautiful & that's inside & out! Don't lose motivation! Try finding a partner to go to the gym with or even a personal trainer. You will get there. Start looking at vegetables as just a normal food & find recipes to spice them up, so you are still getting the nutrition that you need. Don't get down on yourself, because this a lifestyle change. Keep your head up!!!

i now what you mean. people always say that people have other issues. but it still sucks because my issue is just so obvious. my "issue" has a number that clearly says if i'm failing or not :( i didn't workout for the last 2 weeks since i was going to grads and moving since school ended and i gained the 7 lbs back thati had just lost. 187

yes we have to be extreme in order to train our bodies to lose weight. our bodies is use to gain and maintaining not losing and poper nourishment. So train you body to do right and it won't go left.
