    I haven't even sarted but I already feel like I'm up against an impossible task. Where to begin? how to start? how to take control over my life again? I'm not mentally "there" yet. help.

    Start small, this website is great to help you keep track of what you eat and do, to get an understanding of where you are. It also has a great support system built in.

    Another great website that has helpful exercises and recipes is http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/ which has a ton of advice on where to begin, how to begin, how to learn to exercise effectively and from the beginning. There is a community there as well, and the combination of these 2 sites is really helpful. They have a ton of success stories with a variety of people who started at various places and found things that worked for them, and they are available to email questions to.

    Definitely check it out!

    I just joined in the last 30 minutes & I am going to take it 1 day at a time. It is a simple concept that if I see it in writing what I am eating I will think twice about having something I know I shouldn't. for example I just filled in what I ate today as best as I could remember & in writing it all out I can't believe I ate that much. example not 1 cinnamon bun with icing sugar but I actually had 2.
    So I am putting today behind & tomorrow I will hope I make better food choices.
