Another Round

alpen1

I've been back and forth on MFP for over a year. Basically getting motivated only to have my motivation wain after only a week or so. I know this works, and the healthy lifestyles that are so much of the culture here are the right way to go. In the last week I've had a couple of medical wake-up calls that have re-ignited the motivation. Unless I do do something different though, I have no reason to believe that my motivation won't disappear in a week.

So, I want to add community to this (which I never have), and admit that I can't seem to do this alone. I work from home so am alone enough already as it is. So far I have one friend here, and it has helped. I'm happily married , father of four great kids, reasonably active, 30 pounds overweight, and boatloads of typical teenager type food in the cabinets (cause my kids are teenagers). I have to reach around a hundred bad choices in the cabinets to get to the few good choices.

If this sounds familiar, I welcome friends who have had similar experiences.
