Grammie looking for others

I’ve accomplished much in the past few years, I quit smoking in 2008 … a 2 pack a day addiction that I tried to give up hundreds of times and failed. Thought it would never ever happen … but it did. I finally found the help I needed to come back from a bad experience with a psychiatrist who misdiagnosed me and put me on antipsychotics that I never should have been on, I actually lost a couple of years to that misdiagnosis and the crazy meds … I really was like a zombie ... I hardly remember any of it … but my friends and family do. I put them through hell then. But things are better now when it comes to all of that. I beat thyroid cancer last year. So yes, I’ve accomplished a lot that I am so so so grateful for. So why is it so damn difficult to get into a healthy way of eating and exercising? I’m not new to this, not at all. In fact, I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve tried this. But like the quitting smoking thing … I won’t stop trying until it works. I’m back to MFP once again because it’s an awesome tool that won’t break the bank. And it works if one sticks to it. I have a new name, again, a new beginning, again. Here I go, again. I know I'm not alone when it comes to that try try again attitude. Join me on this ride … it can be done. Be my friend.
