Starting Again......

I am 47 years old and have struggled with my weight my whole life. I am married to the man of my dreams who is also dieting with me which helps tons. I, like many others, have lost so much weight but I always seem to gain it back plus some. Obviously that means it is time for a lifestyle change. We have three wonderful sons the youngest is seventeen and the only one still at home. He is very athletic and is very encouraging with me for the exercise part. I live in the South which means fried foods, gravy, and biscuits. All those need to be gone or at least limited to a rare treat. Last year I lost 30 pounds and gained 45 back. So I am looking for support and ideas to keep me on the road for this long term journey. My mindset is great right now, but I am one of those people who is either on a diet or off. Thanks ahead of time.

    Feel free to add me. It is great that you husband is joining you on this adventure and you have the support of your son. With a little encouragement from MFP I'm sure you will make lifestyle changes that will stick this time.
