Need More Support

Hi! Like most folks I am looking for support and encouragement in this slow and challenging weight loss journey. I recently started a commercial diet program that provides phone counseling. I won't name it because I am not ready to endorse it. But anyway, my phone counselor has been unavailable to me for a week. I did call the company to complain and was assured I would get a new counselor soon. However , in the meantime I have come to realize I need more than one person to turn to and get ideas from. (she wasn't that great anyway, but the accountability was helpful).
I'm 45, have two teenage sons and a very loving and supportive fiance. I have felt fat all my life, but when I look back at old pictures I see Iwas not as fat as I felt. Now though my BMI is "obese" so I don't think there's any doubt now!

    Hello, Melody Lou!

    I am sending a friend request. I log in regularly and comment daily on folks' activities. I'll be cheering you on as you continue on this "slow challenge." I am convinced that while every day may not be ideal, there are small victories to be found (sometimes hidden) in each day. So, let's share our victories! If anyone else wants to get in on the action, send a friend request.
