Here we go again....

Hello, I have only been on this site for 3 days. It is going well so far, but this is not my first rodeo (I guess you could call me a veteran by now), and I know that this is the "honeymoon" phase. I have had a weight issue since I was 9 years old... so I have been dieting, in some form for about 28 years now. Wow... when you put it like that, it is Soooo daunting! I wanted to try something new. I usually lose weight using weight watchers. That system works well for me, but the success is never long term. :frown: My lowest weight was for my wedding in 2003. Got down to 128lbs!!! I was SO happy! After 7 days in a Jaimacan resort I had gained back 15lbs. It has all been up and down hill from there. Like one big depressing remake of groundhog's day. I am now back up to 190. I have been to see my doctor. He put me on Phentermine, but only for 3 months. He believed it to be too addictive to prescribe for longer than that. And now he has me on Welbutrin to try to help with my eating compulsions and social anxieties.
I not only want to do this for myself, but also for my sweet husband. He loves me absolutely unconditionaly!! He tells me everyday that he thinks I am beautiful! But I know he misses the old, happy, confident, active, social girl he married. And for that matter.... so do I. Sooooo... Nice to meet you all! And please wish me luck! I'm gonna need it!
