I am the yo-yo queen!

Hello all! This place seems amazing and hopefully having to log my food and exercise will guilt me into SUCCESS, although I'm mad that my little ticker thingy is at zero! I've been trying for that magic 145 lbs on the scale for about 7 years now. I started out at 335 lbs so I guess only having 35 lbs to go should seem like a good thing, but the truth is that these last 35 lbs or so I have left are holding on for dear life! In the past I'd get close and once I hit the plateau I'd start heading right back up the scale again. Seeing as I'll be getting married this year I think this is my time to shine! Here's hoping!:tongue:

    YOU CAN DO IT!!! You really don't have that far to go condsidered what you've already loss!! I'm a wedding planner in the Chicago area and all of my clients (who are trying to lose weight) always feel they can't reach their goal. But, I try to be a great support system and I tell them to to surround themselves with others who will support them! This is my advice to you!! Don't get discouraged!! You almost there!!

    I wish you further success on your weight loss! :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:
