Coming "Out"

I wanted this time to work so bad. I prayed that I would not fail. I have "dieted" so much in my life, I could almost tasted the "need" I had for this site to work for me, and yet I waited to tell people: friends, family, co-workers, that I endeavored to DO IT AGAIN! I did not want to "come out" again and be embarrassed with failure. I waited until I was certain I was in it to win it for life. I waited until I had lost about 50 pounds before I shared my story.

Are any of you waiting to let others know of your journey, change, adjustment, life path? Are you waiting to come out of the MFPer's closet with your story?

    I know I am. I've done the same up and down with dieting before. It seems like the one sure key to my failure is success! Once I start seeing feeling improvements I slack off and lose all the ground I gained. And then I'm sure everyone around, just like I am, is thinking "Oh. He failed again? Surprise surprise." This time I am keeping it to myself, making it a personal journey. I have my goals and I'm focusing on that alone. As this works it will become self-evident but for now I feel like this is my road right now.
