I just looked at the scale. No more I-think-I'm-around-this-weight crap. I cannot believe what I saw. I knew I was getting up there but I just cannot believe how out of control I have let this get. This should motivate me right? Instead I am utterly depressed and don't know how to keep moving forward. I feel like my weight is wayyyy over my head and even If I lose 10 pounds, I'm still 20 pounds away from what I used to be. I'm literally frozen at the computer just so discouraged with myself. How can I turn this around?

    You can turn it around by deciding to start now - right now. No matter how bad you feel, it will only get worse if all you do is sit and fret about it. I did pretty much the same thing you're doing - just got into a rut and a routine and ended up 35 pounds overweight. It's taken close to a year to get back where I belong, but I'm at my goal weight now.

    I'm 57 - if I did it, you can too. All you need is the desire and a little willpower. I'll be happy to help push you when you need it and even happier to praise you when you deserve it.
