Hey everyone. I am new here. I have tried loosing weight before. I just always gave up and ended up gaining even more weight afterwords. Now that I am over 200 lbs, and my weight is starting to take a toll on my body, I have no choice but to seriously make a change. I bought a treadmill second hand and said to myself, I WILL DO THIS. And I am not giving up this time.

I appreciate anyone who is supportive of my goal. Please friend me on here. I need all the positive attitude that I can get. There is a long road ahead, and I will walk, or maybe even run it to the end.

    I understand. I did really well and then just let it all go. Gained almost all I lost and now starting all over again. Disgusted with myelf but determined to get it off and keep it off.

    Yes, I also feel guilty about the weight I have gained. All the more reason to get it off again.
