I will be here for a while as I have a lot to lose but so much more to gain by losing the weight, I know if i dont do it now this time next year I will be even heavier, so no time like the present.
I have a long way to go, but i will do it step by step and hopefully NEVER be the weight I am today again.
Normally i start a diet do ok for a few days then have one biscuit to many, feel guilty and then stuff my face as i think I have failed, but If i do have a bad day this time round, I will no finish off the packet of biscuits,I will STOP and draw a kine under it..Its time for a change because whatever i been doing up until now is definitely not working.
If you can relate to anything I have said or have advice or just want to talk(text ) then feel free to add me.

    Hey, I hear ya! I've done the same thing most of my adult life. I'm learning to not beat myself up so bad if I overeat. Tomorrow is a new day!

    Yeah I think there's quite a few people out there that can relate. Sometimes I get so frustrated when I start up again. I keep thinking "if I hadn't stopped last time I'd be so much better now." I know it's a terrible way to think, and I like your idea better. If we have a mis-step it's not the end of the world

    I agree I am the same way. I joined just yesterday. I have a long way to go! Its frustrating when I think about what I have to do to get fit and healthy. Temptation is everywhere! The great thing is that tomorrow is a new day and if we fall off the path we can always get on it again. We can do it we just have to stay focused.

    Yep, that's why I'm here! Obviously nothing has worked for me in the past, but I am determined to lose this weight and regain my health. Right there with ya!
