Starting over and not giving up

I hate starting over. I hate the fact that I gave up. But it is what it is. Due to some health issues, I need to lose weight. I am undiagnosed at this time (in the middle of tests) but losing weight can only help. Anyone want to join me? I'm 5'4" and 245 and would like to lose around 100 lbs. I need to be accountable!

I blog at http://katrinagrey.wordpress.com/ too.

    Welcome back! I can completely relate to health issues derailing progress. This time last year I was in a similar phase of testing and having no idea what was wrong as my health continued to decline. After a few months of testing I finally had a diagnosis in January of this year. I managed to mostly maintain my weight through all of that, but did put on a couple of pounds during my recovery. They're back off now though!

    Good luck and you can add me if you'd like! There's a link to my "whole story" in my profile if you'd like to read it!

    I'm with you. I just weighed in and I'm up a bit. So, I too am "starting over." Everyday we're starting over so it's okay!
