Friends and motivation

Okay so i have had this program for a week now and its so hard to follow. I have to be at work super early and i don't get off till the evening. i'm 5'7 and i weigh 240. I so need to loose weight. i feel terriable and have no energy. So i'm thinking maybe if i had some friends on here for motivation it would help. thanks

    My journey started last August. It literally, has been one step at a time. At first, it feels overwhelming but if you focus on making better choices for just this one day, it helps. Pretty soon, one day becomes one week, and then one month and then you start seeing changes in yourself that are self motivating. You can do it, MFP can help. There are an incredible number of people who have been successful and are generous in sharing what has worked for them. Explore the community posts a while and you'll find useful information.

    I feel the same way! I go to work early, and even though I get off at a decent hour, my kids have me running in so many directions and I'm so tired! I feel terrible too! I need motivation to workout, and not eat fast food all the time (my kids are in traveling sports, and we eat out a lot!!!) I will take all the friends I can get to help put me on track and motivate me in some way. I want to feel better!

    P.S. I feel very frustrated as I lost a lot last year and even ran 2 half marathons last year. Now, I need to start all over. I have gained all but 4 lbs back :(.
