Just popping in on this new day to a new me to say hello. I have a friend who recommended giving the site a try, so after a few weeks of deliberation, I'm willing to give it a go.
After stepping on the scale for the first time in over a year, I was mortified with the number and realized that it was try to change or possibly die earlier than I wanted. My weight has been spiraling out of control as a result of grief over the loss of my dad for the last 5 yrs and now it's time to get it back in check.
I am going to try to make good food decisions, use the exercise bike instead of looking at it, and not beat myself up (too much) if I have a setback and treat each hour, each day as a new one.
Onto a new-improved me!!

So sorry to hear about your father.
Welcome to the site. It can help, and you'll feel a whole lot better, though there will be days when you'll just feel like quitting. Hang in there. We're all here for you. I can't wait to hear your success story.
Feel free to add me as a friend.0
