  • Count me in. I have lost 28 and I have at least 111 to go.
  • I'm in. love the idea of celebrating every 10 lbs.
  • I need the encouragement, willpower and advice. I start off doing pretty well and then my emotions get the best of me. I need to lose 70-100 lbs, but honestly I would be elated to lose even 5lbs right now! I feel like I am stuck and getting mired deeper and deeper every day with every bite of food I take. The sad thing is I know how to eat right, how to exercise but just don't have that gung-ho get-up-and go mind set anymore...HELP!!!:sad:

    Hi all - well, my experience has been unless there is an emotional component that deals with the why of overeating, nothing will change. There are a lot of resources, and if folks are interested, we could pick one and meet weekly to simply explore the why and begin that healing.

    If we're eating to cover up childhood abuse, a diet is like changing the deck chairs on the Titanic...it's going to sink.

    I totally agree with what you have said. I am an emotional eater, and because I have soo much going on in my head emotionally I get sidetracked. I make excuses, and I don't completely devote myself to this lifestyle the way I want.

    I have 100lbs to lose. I think it would be very encouraging to celebrate every 10 lbs. When I step on the scale I don't get excited about 10 lbs so maybe it will help having others cheer us on.
  • So... when does the group start? (kinda new to the board... well.. a new regular user.)
  • Tops group available in every community. Look in your local phonebook or online.
    Cheap to join, alot of fun and so supportive. You feel so good being with people who
    understand you. They chear you on and become a family. You also support the people in your group.I love the discipline of weighing in each week. Keeps me on track. Feel like a million bucks when the meeting is done and excited to loose more. Encouragement from the group is priceless. Recommend it to anyone for support if nothing else. Not a money making group and we're all over weight. No diet program....just regular people trying to loose weight

    My goal is to lose 60 lbs. It sounds like a large number and overwhelming when thinking about the overall goal. For now I'm trying to concentrate on small goals so I don't get frustrated with the promise.
