Hi! I'm Katherine, a 42 year old who is at the heaviest she has ever been. Trying MFP again to try to hold myself accountable for getting healthy.

I stuggle with depression, anxiety and Fibromyalgia which has added to my issue of weight gain. I use all of these things as excuses, and often abandon my goals to take the easy way out.

Looking for a strong support group to kick me in the rear if I start to slide. While I try to take my life one day at a time, I know that exercise and eating right does improve so much of my life.

In return, I will also support you in your goals. They say it takes a village, this is my first step in supporting myself and our village to reach the goals we set out to.

Welcome!

    I have SLE and I'm too struggling to keep motivated sometimes. I pray to God to help me on this journey. It's very hard especially when you're so used to eating certain unhealthy foods and to exercise is a myth due to weight gain it adds difficulty. Feel free to add me so we journey together

    It's hard but you really can do this, stick with it, log everything truthfully and get supportive and motivational friends on MFP and if you super themin retunr iteil help to keep you on track, own you diary so friends can really help you if that is what you really want. Good luck Carol
