This week I reset... I wish I can report that I kept the weight off. I am back up to 228 pounds. I am determined to run a half marathon this spring! My story continues...

Thanks for all the responses. It is comforting to know there are others who struggle with the same things. I will get back on track. I got this!

I sent you a request...

Friend requests sent out. Thanks!

I just realized I posted this in the wrong section... Haha...

Trying to lose weight? Don't need a gym. Save your money... Walk and then walk some more.

Just got around to read the latest comments. Thanks everyone. Update: Had my first physical in a while. The doctor was very happy with all my blood work and physical changes. All the hard work was worth it!

Haha, I know what you mean... I did it so I would never go back there. It is a great reminder how I looked and (more importantly) how I felt!

Still going strong... The real challenge comes is maintaining after hitting your goals!

I am in the same boat here. I don't want my weight to sync. PLEASE give us the option!

Thanks everyone! Glad to see people are still reading this!

Thanks for sharing!

Wow!

So true! It is amazing what we stress about... It really takes away from living...

Thanks.. Do it, it keeps you focused on a goal! It feels awesome when you meet it!

Wow, that is scary! Never too late!

Thanks again for the awesome responses. It really is nice to hear that I could have a positive influence on someone else's journey!

Yes it did!

Thanks everyone!! I appreciate all the kind words!

Good luck! You are well on way, keep it up!

That is awesome! I know there are a many of "us" out there. You are looking good buddy!

It always helped me to view these stories... I wanted to make sure I shared mine and hoping I can get someone over the hump. It is weird to say but... Enjoy the journey, I did!

Thanks everyone. Yes, I was very happy. Triathlons are a lot of fun. I am hooked. My goal is compete in 3 next season.

Thank you!

Fitbit rocks! I have been using it since my weight loss journey started. It is fun and very motivating. If mine broke today, I would buy a new one in heart beat!

I drink on weekends too. Just like everything else, track it...

I drink Light beer. One trick I use is to load the drinks into MFP before my day starts. This way you can "budget" for them... Takes the stress out of it for me... Have Fun!
