    Hey Daryl,

    I think just admitting this to total stragners is a huge step forward. You can add me, I am new and I need help too. I can not seem to get myself motivated to do what I know I need to be doing because I have failed so many times before. I do not want to fail, so if I never start, I can't fail. But, not starting is failure before even beginning. So, as you can see, I need help too. Maybe we can encourage each other.

    Thanks!

    I know how you feel, going through a rough patch myself. This too, shall pass.

    I would think many people (including myself) have fallen off the wagon more than once. Everyone deserves to be here and so do you. Add me if you like. You can do it and we can all help each other.

    Daryl, the only thing you can do is get up. brush yourself off and climb back into the wagon with the rest of us.
    That is EXACTLY what I am doing.

    I hurt too because I failed on my last attempt at this - the getting fit and healthy wagon ride. BUT...I'm back. I'm doing it. I'm going to make changes in my life. I am VERY new here - in fact, the last time I was here - I didn't find any friends and was so embarrassed about myself that I didn't try either. But...I need a new attitude and I need HELP to get to the goals I am setting for myself.
    I am still trying to get this app/website down and understand all it offers.

    I'd be happy to help you - as long as you don't mind helping me too. I am also open to ANYONE who has support and help to help me out.

    My name is Donna and it's nice to meet you.

    Daryl I am so sorry for your loss. Unfortunately, grief can be a great motivator. I have started and restarted my diet so many times that I literally cannot count. I really need to make changes too! I am here for you! To motivate or just to listen! We can do this together!!!!!!!!!! We deserve the best!

    Hi Daryl,

    Sorry you are having a bad time at the moment.

    Big Hugz & positive thoughts.

    I've been a member for a while but I've only really been active on the forums for a couple of days. But in those couple of days I've met some amazing people who've got me back on track to getting my life (and body) back in shape.

    In the past I've often been my own worst enemy - when I come off the wagon it's not so much because I've slipped off gracefully it's more that I've flung myself off at full speed.....but with a bit of luck (and a fab community) we can all get through this.

    Feel free to add me as a friend and as many other have said....Let's do this!!!

    sorry you're having a tough time.

    think about what made you fall off the wagon in the past and make allowances for those issues so that they wont knock you down in the future.

    feel free to add me

    Iv been using MFP for a long time its worked but fallen off the wagon a couple of times and maybe don't deserve to be asking for this help , last night I lost a very good friendship and I feel like im broken, iv decided to sort my miserable life out because I deserve better, maybe if I sort my mind/weight/life out everything will fall in to place (wishful thinking I know) so I guess im asking for help, because I cant to this alone and cant trust the people in my life, I have at minimum 70 lbs/ 5 st to lose.

    Open to new people, happy to chat in general. give and take advice, thanks guys/


    I understand how it feels to be broken, down and out, but things can get better. Just have to make yourself do it! Even if you don't feel like it or don't want to get out of bed. Working out releases the endorphins and will help ya feel better as you reach your weight loss goal. I've been off the wagon a few times but not giving up is what counts! So way to go! for getting back on the wagon!:happy:
