Not the first time I have been here. I think the difference this time is that I want it. Moreover, I NEED to change this life! I currently weigh 294 lbs and am excited to keep losing! Wanting to stay on the path this time and meet my first goal of 250 lbs!!!

    Something that helped me when I started was an idea from a book called The Art And Science of Rational Eating by Albert Ellis. To paraphrase- the fact that I've been unsuccessful at weight loss in the past has nothing to do with this time. The past does not control the future.
