Here we go again (Help wanted)

Hi, I am 37 years old, and weigh 256lbs. I have tried every diet going and lost weight and put it all back on again plus more. I am 38 in 6 months and enough is enough. I am aiming to be 4 stone lighter by my birthday. I really want friends to talk to and encourage.

    Your headline sounds like what was in my head yesterday when I re-signed up for MFP! :)
    Same here, need the motivation to lose anything...A POUND WOULD BE GOOD RIGHT NOW! :) I don't get too depressed just fed up with myself for not sticking to it long enough to see results. I"m a 'Need instant gratification' person sometimes and with weight loss or getting fit...not a good thing to have you know.

    Add me, in fact anyone add me...I need the help just like Cheryl. Let's say it's like a daily kick in the pants to remind all of us to keep on track! :)!

    Feel free to add me I am always willing to help motivate. If your in Las Vegas I'm even willing to be an exercise buddy to any who need it. I had reached my highest weight ever myself a few months ago and it took some of the guys I work with encouraging me to do the best I can to help me see the light. Thought my dad said that the best motivation for him and my step mom was encouragement at home.
  • You are on the right track. Your story sounds like mine but I am older ! Feel free to add me. Support helps
