Hi, my name is Carol.
I have just started with this program today. It's a new start.
I had been doing very well at losing weight for a while. I lost about 80 lbs. I had a lot of people begin to tell me how great I look, and good I am doing and for some reason, it through me into a tailspin, It made me extremely uncomfortable to get all that praise and I began to sabotage. I have gained back 23 lbs of the 80 and it freaks me out. Mind you, the 80 lbs is not my goal, it was toward my goal and I still had a bit to go.
I am praying that somehow I can work passed the fear of success, and the discomfort of the praise and move through all that, stay on program to reach my goals.
