New Kid on the Block

Hi Everyone... well, here I am again, sick and tired of my reflection, and ready to make some changes. Being overweight has been a life long challenge, and I recently realized that I have let myself go completely. After having my second child I was able to get down to my pre pregnancy weight, which was still 25 pounds more than my ultimate goal. Then about 3 years ago I had to have my thyroid removed AND a partial hysterectomy... My weight bounced up yet another twenty pounds!! I am now just five pounds away from breaking 200 pounds! Its very stressful and depressing to look at pictures of myself over the past few years.
I seem to always self sabotage when a few pounds are lost... almost like my body is completely resisting the shift. Has anyone out there delt with similar circumstances? I'm glad to have found you all... I have read some of your amazing stories! You are all incredible people and I look forward to seeing you all (and myself) reaching our ultimate goals!
