    I say KUDOS for a job well done on your first week. Its so hard to stay motivated but I think these forums are very, very helpful and the tracking really helps. I seem to be struggling with keeping my fat grams under control.

    Hello!

    I'm not new to MFP, but I am new to the forums. I'm always back and forth with my weight, but the past year has been really awful. I moved to a new city and gained nearly 50 pounds. Things really have come to a head, as my weight is at an all-time high of 250 pounds, and it has kept me from skydiving with my husband and friends for the first time (I had to lie and say I was just afraid, but in reality I couldn't jump because I exceeded the maximum weight limit) and I couldn't go on a number of rides at the water park for the same reason. I've stopped thinking of myself as attractive in any way, and I'm only 26. I'm terrified that I'm wasting the best part of my life by being fat and lazy.

    I snapped last night and decided to try to lose weight again. I lost 80 pounds a few years ago and got to a healthy weight, now I need to try again. I have 100 pounds to lose, but I'm trying to focus on setting goals that revolve around doing things for periods of time (coming in under my MFP calories for 14 days in a row, working out 30 minutes every day for a week, etc.), rather than pounds lost.

    I'm at a very low point and I'm hoping to find support. I'm the lone fat girl in a group of friends who can easily maintain thin figures, and they often seem to tempt me when I tell them about my efforts to be healthy. Hopefully a forum of people in my same situation will be more supportive :-)

    I want to add my support and best wishes to each and every one of you. You CAN do this! I started with 130 pounds to lose. So far I have lost 110 lbs. I joined MFP to help with the last 20 and for the support, friendship and motivation necessary to get to my goal. We are all in this together, for the long haul.

    So I hope everyone is doing great! If you arn't thats okay...stop and get back on track! You are only hurting yourself and you just really need to weigh the pros and cons... The only real pro of eating to much and unhealthy is that its easy and delicious...but it can be easy and delicious too to eat healthy!! I had a bad couple of weeks and now I need to get back on track! I am just about 40lbs down and 60 lbs away from my first goal. We all can do it , one day at a time!
