Needing encouragement

ashleygaspard

I'm looking for some support and motivation to start losing weight again! Anyone who has had trouble losing and maintaining knows the struggle I am going through. No one around me in my day to day life is dieting so it's extremely hard. I figured my next option is to find people on here needing the same type of help as me.

It is hard. discipline..delayed gratification..

I try to turn it into a competition, which does work. But then I reach my goal and ...stop competing...get busy. Then I gain some back. I am not getting any younger, at 26, so the time is now.

Like you, I wish I knew others who were making conscientious lifestyle choices, but my wife is naturally thin and healthy. She is supportive, but unless she also is struggling it is not the same thing. When I was younger and lived with my twin brother I always had that partner...rats!

Thanks! My husband is naturally skinny with a high metabolism so he doesn't ever struggle or understand. I feel like food is an addiction and something I will struggle with for the Rest of my life. Thank you for the support.
