Well, here goes, the start (I hope) of a new me! I followed a plan like this before & managed to lose 4 1/2 stone, it really helped having a food diary as clubs don't fit in with my work/ life style.I only gave up after the site I was following closed & I got back into bad habits again! Hope I can encourage all you others out there!! Good luck y'all:bigsmile:

    Hey all,
    This is just me... I'm 36 and morbidly obese. I'm not motivated to exercise, but I will do it just to be able to record my activity on MFP. I am an overeater. I need to be in OA, but am pretty sure there aren't any meetings of that sort in NW Missouri! I love life and try to enjoy it even though most times I am uncomfortable in my own skin. I keep thinking that some day I will lose this weight and be free of this burden. But I guess that day will never come unless I am willing to do the work right? Glad to see so many people here who are uplifting and positive!

    I know just how you feel! It's taken me a LONG time to get back on track & I'm so cross with myself that I let a lot of the weight back on, so I put more on (I comfort eat). Anyhow, time to change, keep going and together we'll be the beautiful women we want to be!
