I'm Back . . . And Hesitant

ChallaF

Hello.
I'm not sure how long I have been on MFP; probably for about 2 or 3 years. I have come so close to posting diet and exerciser for a year straight and then stopped. I am coming back now after several months away. I know I need to really stick to something that works because my weight is back to affecting my energy levels and possible blood pressure. I am super lazy in the Winter so this is going to be more difficult than it ever been. But I want to see a change.

I am a single mother of three children. And while I have a sedentary job (I work for the State of Arkansas) my middle son is very active in sports and while he is at practice I usually have some place I can exercise (even if its just walking around the baseball park or basketball court and football field) but I usually don't because I am so sleepy (hence the energy issue). Also I am so self conscious about working out alone. I actually like going to the gym though, even if just for cardio work. I love the Treadmill and the bikes...but again energy.

This is my first time posting in the communities and I am hoping talking with you all and getting more friends here I will have more sense of accountability and get this ball that is now 6 years still, rolling again.

Hi Challa! I have been on MFP but been very sporadic. I committed today to be more accountable and use MFP consistently. I am raising 4 children and go to the gym twice a week with a trainer but do not exercise any on my own. I am not afraid of going alone but struggle to make the time to go. Maybe we can motivate each other.

Hello today is my 1st day back and on the way to becoming 100 percent commited. Just looking for some support and motivation.
