Newbie

Hi everyone! My name is Tiffany and I am new to this forum, but have been doing Myfitnesspal for awhile. I also have the Core armband to go with it to track my excercise. I'm a married mom of 7 (his, hers, ours) and work full-time.

I am struggling big time. After I hit the 40 mark (I am now 45) I can't seem to stick to any diet. I do really well during the day, but can't seem to follow anything once I'm home in the evening. The scale just keeps going up instead of down, to the point that it's becoming harder to excercise because of joint issues, not to mention it's taking a toll on my marriage and my self-esteem. I'm not sure what it's going to take to get myself to stick to a weight loss program. Nothing has worked so far. Obviously I haven't given up, because I am here. But something has to give, because I can't afford for the scale to keep going up.

Looking forward to finding a few friends on this community to help me through this and who I can support as well.
