Focus on you should be the priority. I don't always get that done. But, glad you are back and ready to begin again!!

Nope, I am 61 going to be 62 in Sept. Sure don't feel that old

You may add me if you want, Weekends is when I have the problem of logging, but unless I am off on a vacation, I log everyday. UNLESS I went way over in calories. It happens. Feel free

Good for you!!

Wow Amy, good for you!! And be sure and thank your husband for his service. I am one of those crazy people that goes up and shakes their hands and says Thank You For Serving! A marathon next? WOW good luck to you! Dee

Kristy, those people are the ones that you take with a grain of salt. You ARE allowed to have a life and have fun. Never worry about that. You are doing fine!!!!

Hi welcome, Good luck, you get alot of support here!

Look, you came back, that is a HUGE step. Next just start all over again. I think all of us have those days.weeks, months. Don't worry, I still have days where I don't log in because I am ashamed of what I have eaten. You are GOOD!! And Never call it a diet, call it a life change. Cause that is what it is.

I agree with all of those suggestions. Now if only I could implement them......Sigh

Here is what I do, I go to ARC and Goodwill and get clothes that fit. Also, when you get smaller again, you don't feel as bad about spending $5.00 compared to $35.00 or up on new jeans, shirts, pants, etc.

Hi Lah, add me as your friend, I am almost 62 and still have a long way to go. Just realized last night that I was doing good during the day (work) and horrible at night. You can do this woman!!

That is for sure!

AWESOME

Why are you insecure? Have you always been this way? My goodness, by your picture you sure don't look like you need to loose weight. But perhaps, the weight and insecurity go hand in hand. Think about it.

There are so many people that will support you Dani, I read about 1/4 of the replies and totally agree with all of them. One of the best, is take baby steps. Cut one item at a time. And drink more water. I have learned, that even though I slip, my friends keep me up. Add me as a friend if you want.

WOW PU-239 you are right, age should not be the excuse.

WOW so many good inspirations!! Thanks Nicole

I don't think I could even go under 1200 calories a day. Totally agree, no one should go under 1200.

JustAmyDawn, Wow, it is amazing to me to see total strangers helping me with my little slump. Thanks again everyone. It helps, it really does help to know that people care

Thanks MrshhJones, it was the encouragement from the community I needed. And to all, Nope, not quitting!!

Moparrunner. wow thanks thanks for looking at my post. You can do too!! Especially for that baby you are holding!

Jester, Thanks, I think I just needed a little encouragement. I ate things I shouldn't have eaten. And yes you are right. I shouldn't beat my self up over a single week. Thanks for the words, and boulstering up my self esteem.:smile:

WOW

Good for everyone, I am 5'4" also and looking to loose at least 70 more lbs.

GOOD for you!!!

WONDERFUL

AWESOME!! Congrats!!

Heather, myself, I try not to eat the exercise calories. Don't get discouraged. Hang in there, you will do just fine! And they are great about giving advise here. :smile:

Thanks Ketz and Honeybea. I do believe it will be along long time before I go there again...... Besides the fact that it is expensive. Oh well, only 1 lb lost this week, but that is ok. It is one less than I was last week. :-) Again, thanks for the support!

I don't think you are being paranoid!. I am 61 and weigh 246 at the moment. People are unkind, yes, say stupid things, like oh you would look so much nicer if you would just loose some weight. Anyone that is over weight and says they haven't heard, seen or felt like people don't like the way you look, are lying to…
