Trying...again

jwat90 · July 2016

Hi everybody. I was on her a while back and lost 30 lbs, then unfortunately I gained a lot of it back. So here I am again. I'm 44 yrs old. My only child just turned 18. I've always put all of my energy into taking care of her. Now I need to focus on me. I just don't feel good. Very sluggish and so disappointed in myself. I would really appreciate friends on here. The support of MFP friends really helped last time.

Happy to support if you want to add me. There is no try, there is only do, or do not

Feel free to add me also. i got myself a coach and the accountability is really helping me. I got up to 180# (my high) at 5', i made excuses and justifications and actually got comfortable! i'm down to 158, and my goal is 125 by 12/31. I agree Rick. its' do not try. i would love support and support others.

I have lost and gained 30 lbs twice now...this will be my third time(15 down, 15 to go). You do feel tired, cranky and sluggish at first...but keep at it and you will start to feel amazing again. Different factors in life have contributed to regaining my weight (depression, breakup, etc.). Both times it crept up on me so fast - I know it didn't happen overnight, but it's like I woke up one day and thought, "holy crap. I've gained 30 lbs". I felt miserable about myself. The only thing you can do is work at it everyday.
