Really need to succeed this time, I cannot fail.

Hi This is not my first time here but I know this time I can succeed. I find myself single after 30 years of marriage and what makes it harder due to financial reasons we are both still in the same home.
I want to find that confident person I used to be and enjoy life instead of letting it slip past. So please I would be grateful for all the support and will be more than happy to support others.

    You can do this...it sounds like you are dedicated to making it happen...sounds like you are in a stressful situation with both of you living in the same home. Just stay focused on your goals.

    Hi Ruth, I'm in the same boat. 25 years of marriage later and I'm ready to focus on myself. I've been working at this since Christmas and after some ups and downs and a recent break from all things fitness and diet (gasp! I said the dreaded word), I am ready to get back to it.

    My diet is more of selecting better portion sizes as opposed to eliminating certain foods. While I will limit the foods that make it especially difficult for me to control my eating, I will keep in mind that this time it has to be a life change rather than a quick "fix it" session.

    Hold on to your determination and accept that sometimes things won't necessarily work to your plan. Just keep that final goal in mind. Best of luck to you.
