Struggling but still determined...

Hi, everyone. I'm fairly new here. I've been journaling on this site for a few weeks now, however, I started this entire process almost two months ago. Now that I'm into it a couple of months, I find myself struggling to stay on track. This all started with my little girl. I'm a single parent, and not long ago she started voicing concerns about my health. She would cry sometimes and say she was worried about losing me because I was not healthy. She's 11, so she's at that age where she is aware of this possibility. Well, that did me in, and I realized she's right. So I decided to make some changes. I have to so that I can be here for her, and plus, it has made her so much happier since I started. This is not the first time I have lost weight. I have yo-yoed up and down my entire life, always struggling. I can lose the weight, but maintaining it is the problem for me. Anyway, I find myself starting to lose focus. Being under a lot of stress lately hasn't helped, and I am just trying to stay on track. I really need to continue with this, so I guess I'm looking for any help at all. Words of wisdom, friends, recipes, etc. Thanks for listening everyone, and I look forward to meeting some of you.
