Hi All
I have restarted today. The weight is more dire than ever and I am feeling rubbish. I wont comment on how I look but its far from good! Anyway this is just a hi I will no doubt pour over all of your successes and NSV which have always motivated me in the past.

I have noticed that I am really feeling quite bad in myself which is a new thing for me so this must mean I have to get my large self into gear and do something about this.

Here goes :noway:

    Welcome back! I, too, have restarted this week. It's been a pretty sedentary summer. I haven't been working out and watching what I eat properly. Time to get back to eating right and exercising! Good luck!

    Must be a week for re-starting, I started again Monday, feeling really good with progress so far, just hope it shows on the scales this week.

    Good luck x

    I'm starting out again too; i recently lost my job so spent most of my days sat in the house drinking which was so not good for me.
    Now with starting Go Sober for October i've decided I need to get my healthy diet back on track too.
    I really want to be able to stick at this come november when i'm 'allowed' to drink again.
    If any of you want to add me i'd appreciate it :)

    Hi

    I felt like you too - I found that sticking your calorie allowance was hard. I then linked the MFP app to the Run Keeper app (on iphone). This way when I did my walks, it tracked what calories I burned, how far I walked and how long it took. This then was shared on my FB page, my friends could see it and they give me encouragement. By having it on FB it gave me the feeling that if I didn't do the walks, it would not share on my FB page, and that my friends would think I gave up. I've been walking now for over 7 weeks, 3 times a week and I've lost over a stone! Keep at it you will get there!!! Good luck!
