Weight Loss - the neverending cycle?

Where are you at emotionally with your weight? I currently am on a journey to lose weight, but haven't been 100% taking it too seriously.  Which is ridiculous because I am legit worried about my future health, but also am currently paying to participate in an intensive program at Ohio State Medical Center where I subject myself to weekly weigh ins, reading a guide book full of facts I already know on how to improve my weight (eat smaller portions!  Use a smaller plate!  meal plan and prep!  less carbs, more protein and fiber!  take a walk!), and an hour log session where myself and other fat people sit around and talk about our week.  Some weeks, I just can't stomach walking into that room and talking about why I'm fat.  It's a constant opportunity to look at your same failures in the faces of other big people, that in many cases, you realize you don't really like them.  I'm not sure if I don't like them because they have similar characteristics as I do and I am being confronted with the fact that I too am lazy (in some aspects!) and have a lack of self control.

So, my hopes with this blog is it becomes also a chance to track my future weight loss and efforts.  We'll see!  Have a non-typical tip or trick?  Let's hear it.  Have you had incredible weight loss?  I'd love to see your before/current.  Need someone to provide you with encouragement?  Hit me up.  I love to give positive pushes to those around me.
