Looking for Support

Electra0928

Hi everyone! Like many of you, I have struggled with my weight for the majority of my life. I have failed time and time again between FAD diets, starving myself, etc. I honestly thought that at some point in my life I would hit a wall and realize that I have a problem and dedicate everything that I have to working on losing it. In the last year I have gained 40 more pounds, now making me 100 pounds overweight. I have constantly given myself excuses why I don't have time to work out and denying the fact that I eat the wrong things. I recently found myself even sneaking food after my husband went to bed so that he wouldn't know.

I think I finally hit that "wall" last week when my husband told me that I have let myself go. I have to do it this time! Not just for me, but my husband and my 5 year old son. I need support if anyone is willing to help!!!

Hey feel free to add me if you like and we can support each other. I am working towards a 50 pound loss by this time next year. We can discuss the changes that we make every week and our weak points. Stay focused and don't be too hard on yourself:)

Hi- we sound very similar. Today is the first time I have logged in for about a year. I have good intentions but little will power. I am an elementary teacher and mother to 3. I have about 80 pounds to lose. 3 things have happened in the last few months to finally get me to take this seriously. One of my adorable and sweet students (5 year old) told me I was fat. Ouch! I was kayaking with my husband and had a heck of a time getting out of the kayak. Finally, my 17 year old and I were visiting a campus today and one part was all uphill with numerous staircases. I had difficulty! I need to do this and now is the time. I would love to have a buddy to support. Encouragement goes a long way! I believe we can do it!

Added! Thank you so much! Yes, I am definitely very hard on myself and need to work on that as well!

:-( I know how you feel. My son is 5 as well and he always tells me that I have a fat belly. That was one of my pushing points as well. We can do it!
