So mad at myself for giving up! Restarting.

I had 30 days of dieting and exercise under my belt and around 6-8 pounds lost and I completely threw it away all the month of Feb. I have now not only gained the 6-8 pounds back but also 2 more. I am so mad at myself for giving up and now having to start all over! Also, I just do not get it because I feel so great when I am dieting and exercising, I have ten times the amount of energy I normally have but I give it all for junk food. I am hoping and praying I can be successful at it this time and make some life changes. Id love to have some new friends on here!

I understand where you're coming from... after a family tragedy and a serious illness, I was down nearly 40lbs from my highest weight, but I lost the momentum and I gained almost 15 of it back. But you've already done the right thing. You came here and asked for some help, just like me! Don't let a backslide ruin the success you've already had. You've done it before, you can do it again...only better! I'm here for you if you want some encouragement. Best of luck!

If the beach at Ludington isn't drawing you to exercise, then I don't know what will! LOL. Seriously, it is one of the prettiest beaches in the world, and I've seen many.

I feel for you. I'm working full time, finishing a degree, and teaching a class right now. My "baby" is 21, so I do have less activity, but still equal worry (note: being Dad to a pretty 21 year old is big worry).

School and kids and a husband and ... it can be tough. If you get to an ideal weight, I hear it's less tough. Let that be our motivator. We're not dieting. We're making our lives LESS tough.

Feel free to add me if you like.
