    I totally understand a weight issue. I love food and have gained and lost for years. I finally found a good work out program and have been doing good. I will keep you in my prayers and please let me know how you are doing from time to time.

    In His service

    Honey, if we can do it, you can do it! Keep your eye on the prize and ask God to be your work out buddy. You can't fail! I've lost 43 pounds and as long as I am willing to have Him, God will be there for me. Give it to God and the rest will follow. We're here for you. You need support? These message boards are filled with valuable advice and support. Take advantage of it all. We can all do it together!

    Concentrate on the fitness and nutrition aspect and you will be healthy. That is the most important thing about this journey whether you get to your goal weight or not. :flowerforyou:

    Although men have it rough at times, I truly believe that the issue of weight is generally harder on women then men. I can soooo relate to how you are feeling and quite frankly I need to lose a large amount of weight too. I married much later in life (43) and was pretty healthy for the most part. Was I a little over weight? absolutely but nothing like I am now. My husband is a grazer and in the 2.5 years we have been married, I have put on 150 pounds. I know what it is like to lose your self-esteem and worth, to feel sluggish every day of my life and to hurt when I move etc. I am here for the same reason you are. We want to be healthy physically, emotionally and spiritually. I am not perfect but I am having some good success and so can you. This is a great site. Wonderful people with good support. Male and female. Together, we can do this and with God's help, all things are possible, right? You will be in my thoughts and prayers. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    First of all, welcome to the site!!! It's great here! I've had weight issues for a good part of my life and this is the first time I'm really succeeding with weightloss and fitness.
    YOU CAN DO THIS!!! You are worth it every step of the way! Tell yourself that everyday! Write it down and place that message around your house/work/car, etc. to help remind yourself of that!
    And remember that God can and will help you through anything!!! He is there for you 100% of the time! He won't give you anything more than you can handle! So you can do this!!! :smile:
