Hey all!

I was recommended to this site by a new friend of mine, and thought I would try it out! Last October/November, I started changing my life. I started eating better foods and exercising every day. After about a month and a half, however, I got a nasty flu and sort of...stopped doing what I should have been doing. I havent' gone back since. :(

I'm wanting to start again, but I'm having a hard time finding the motivation. Every day I wake up, thinking "Today will be the day...I need to start fresh!" but then I start making excuses and it doesn't happen..and so weeks go by...months...and then I get even more depressed and I eat even more and...it's a nightmare!

I'm hoping to get strength through this site so I can get back to what I was doing before!

Everyone here seems great. I hope I can make everyone, and more importantly myself, proud!
