    I feel your pain. I've done the same thing. Too many life changes at once turns to stress eating. I need to reset the mindset. :(

    If anyone would like to they can add me... I'm not terribly great at this yet, though I've tried off and on for years. It's sad to see mfp show what I weighed when I last tried, have 20 to go to catch up to that before it even shows improvement at all. Shooting to lose about 70 but really have no supportive friends at all.

    Wow thanks everyone for the posts!!! Hint is to start yourself with 3 goals to acheive/ work on daily for a week. Too much sodium intake? Not working out enough? Not logging food? Or maybe you want to increase strength or endurance. Set small goals and writethem down somewhere you look daily!!! Infront of your tv, bathroom mirror, ccomputer, at work! Anywhere that will remind you. Then once you feel you no longer need that reminder, add a new one!!! Set smalls goals to begin with and you will find you will be doing them without realizing!! l

    I am sick of loosing the same weight over and over again! Now I am heavier than ever and need a change. This is going to be a long and hard process that I have been avoiding for some time. I need all the support I can!

    Your exactly right about the goal setting and making small goals and once achieve and maintain you can move on to the next goal(s)...and having people who support you in what your doing to help hold you accountable.

    I am trying by darndest to loose weight without the surgery and the only reason I even considered is due to Pre-diabetic, hypothyrodism and high cholestrol...but if I can loose the weigh on my own over the next 6 months and can reduce any of these issues I will seriously reconsider surgery as it does require alot upkeep for the rest of my life.

    Not watching TV or doing other things while eating also help along with sitting the fork down in between bites which helps with digestion and therefore make you feel fuller faster. Another thing is if you eat protein first, fruit/veggies next and carbs last will also help in making you feel fuller. I have been logging on here for the past 4 weeks and down about 10 pd. give or take.

    I'm right there with you. I went from 275 down to 163 and then back up to 241. I'm down to 233 now, but struggling to get and stay motivated.

    Sounds like I've been lucky enough to find just the right group to start my journey with. I lost nearly 50 pounds eating basically Paleo through the spring of last year, but a little backsliding led to a lot. Now I'm back over 200 and have a goal of 140 overall. How do I add people, or will you add me to the group?

    Thanks!
