in Introduce Yourself
I am a committed yoyo weight loser. Not a fad dieter but a person who does all the right things (eating clean, training heavy, water) etc and then hits a bout of depression (diagnosed, medicated and recurrent) with hospitalisation or not and then back to the drawing board I go. I used to be on here as well under a different pseudonym but I thought I'd start afresh.

So, I'm 46, a working mum with two school aged children and a fantastic life. If only I was free to live it fully!

So that's all about me....I hope some people will add me!

BTW I live in the west of Ireland and am happy to offer tourist advice about Ireland, too! :)

I'll add some pictures possibly but it's kinda depressing as I have no NOW pictures (started at 97kg = 215lbs) and all of my pictures on my laptop are of me 70lbs - 50lbs slimmer!

I'd love to be added by anyone who likes to get motivation and share victories!

    Oh I understand the yo-yo dieting cycle. I've been battling that for 15+ years. I'm determined to overcome it and this site has really helped hold me accountable. Feel free to add me if you're looking for support!

    Thanks everyone for commenting. So frustrating to have to start all over again, isn't it?
    Well, at least this time we know we can do it and we know HOW to do it!

    Let's get fit once and for always!

    I added you. I had to do it from my laptop as it would not work on my phone.

    So I'm still here feeling quite motivated! ! B)
