Tired of making excuses for myself

So this will be the third time i have had to loose weight in large amounts.I realized when my go-to fancy wedding dress didnt fit that I had gotten bigger than I thought. I was avoiding my scale like the plague and was eating more than I thought. I tries weight watchers but it was too strict for what I need emotionally to loose weight. My knees hurt all the time, however, my blood pressure is 120/80 so that keeps me motivated!!! Looking for online friends that understand my hatred of excercise and my love of wine. :D

    You took the first step already! With exercise you need to start little by little and look for something you really enjoy. I don't love all the workouts I do, but there's a great feeling of acomplishment after it knowing I've done something good for myself and helps me walk taller and feeling stronger.

    Hi! I totally sympathize with the experience of realizing your go-to outfit no longer fits >_< I don't hate exercise, but I like wine! :smile: Feel free to add me.
