Vacation. Plus 12 pounds in one week. I saw that almost shat. I looked at all I had accomplished to that point, and remembered all the great things my family said about it when they saw me. I got after it hard and lost it, plus a couple of pounds in 2 weeks.0

I think for me, my biggest setback was myself & my attitude. Ive lost weight several times before only to gain it back because i was just going through the motions. This time around i kinda got forced into making a decision on whether i would be healthy or not. My health is suffering & im at a point where i can turn around what is going on in my body. This time, mentally i have to get it right. I can already tell the difference that my attitude makes in my determination to succeed. I just wished i hadnt allowed myself to get to the point im at. But shoulda, coulda, woulda. All that matters now is that each day, im determined to make the best choices i can. :-)0
