Hi , My name is Kimetha Jones and I'm a eatolic . I have bad knees and my weight has physically hurt me . All my friends are skinny and I feel embarrassed when we all go out and I hate looking at pictures of us together because I'm always the fat one. So, I need help. I support group. I know what I need to do but I just don't do it

    Eatolic - That's me too!

    You can do it - Log everything you eat, stick to your calories and log in every day and the weight will come off and stay off!

    You can do it - now believe it!

    Hi Kimetha,

    Been there, and understand. Likewise, I'm having knee troubles, but having now lost 35 of my target 100-104, my knee is getting much better, and the pain is way down (ibuprofen intake dropped from ~4 tablets per day on average to less than 1 per day on average).

    Like VeggieGal said, log your calories, log your exercise, watch your targets, and it will happen.

    I've known for a long time that I needed to do this. The knee problems became the incentive that got me off the couch (literally and figuratively) this time.
  • Hi Kimetha:

    Hang in there. You can do it!
