in Introduce Yourself
So here it goes:
Well here I am on the diet band wagon again. I've been on again off again for more times than I can remember. It's spring again though which always gives me the fever to better myself although it usually tends to fizzle out just when the weather gets really really nice. But not this time. I've got to get this weight off once and for all. I'm somewhat motivated yet discouraged already at the same time only because I am fully aware of my past history and mistakes. I figure if I join a support group this time, I may have somewhat of a better luck. I can't give up again. I don't want 2009 to be another year of failure. I want to look as good on the outside as I tend to generally feel on the inside. So bikini season, here I come!

    I know it can be hard but one thing I try to do is constantly re-evaluate the situation. I dont let one slip up get me down. If I eat something I shouldnt I make sure I exercise or I eat less calories later. I try to compensate.
