edited September 18 in Introduce Yourself
Hello everyone, I am considering myself new because I was trying my best in Jan but then work and life got in the way and I fell off the motivational wagon. Fortunately I haven't gained but the downside is that I have absolutly no progress and have maintained the same weight since at least Jan. So now I'm back for the ride and hopefully wil do better this time. I really need to because I'm starting to feel sad and depressed about myself and that is not a good for the self esteem or weight loss!!!

thanks for having me back!!

    Don't think of maintaining as a bad thing! If you are someone who has successfully maintained weight for 3 months without thinking about it, then I'm jealous! :wink:

    Welcome Back :smile:

    Just think of it as "One day at a time" and that way you can forgive yourself for bad days and cherish the good days.

    Stay with it, we're here for you!

    know the feeling, sweetheart :sick: I got felled with a particularly nasty bout of sciatica 3 weeks ago and today was the first day I've been able to push past the pain enough to do any exercise at all.........and a slow 30 minute walk wore me out and had me sweating more than my usual 90 minute workout :sad: :cry: Like you, I haven't gained any but dang it ~ haven't lost any either. Living on pain killers and having ice packs stuck down my underoos is NOT my idea of a life well lived as it is (:noway: ) so I'm hoping that today's exercise will start me back on the road I desperately want to continue traveling on.

    Oh god.. I AM the freaking wagon. I signed up two days ago and have done nothing but dig into the GS cookies. I am Sybil with food - I need more than help, I need psychiatric care.


    :smokin:

    I did have my first good day. okay Sarie... this is IT...

    That is too funny!!!! We're all in this together....I posted some long blurb earlier in the week about exercising and since then think I have a stress fracture in my foot...hmmm...so, now, I, like "frithir" can barely do 30 minutes with the pain and am scared too death that I'm going to fall off the proverbial wagon... on top of that I don't think I did the quote thing right either...:blushing: :blushing: :blushing: vee
