This is my 3rd time starting over. Lost 50lbs when I was 23, gained it back over the coarse of a few years. The same thing at 28 and now at 34 I'm here again...only my metabolism is slower and I'm getting discouraged. I live in my husband tshirts and black (baggy) yoga pants. I hate the way I look and have so many things I want to do but they are all on hold until I lose weight, my self esteem is holding me back and having been at a healthy weight In the past I never feel as good about my self as I have at those times. I know I should love myself no matter my weight but it just comes more naturally when I feel strong and healthy. Anyone else relate to any of this please add me.

    It's hard to love ourselves when we're uncomfortable with ourselves. I just started a plan today. There's been many successes with my weight and there's been way too many failures. You're not alone.

    I was in the same boat as you until recently. I lost 150 lbs, gained back almost half and just recently found my groove again. I'm down just over 20 lbs since mid December. I too struggle with my metabolism now that I'm over 30 - what I did the first go round quit working so I had to change my diet up.
