I am in the same boat as you. Junk food for me is just about anything made with sugar; candy, ice cream, cookies etc. I eat until they are gone or I get sick to my stomach. People say don't buy it, don't have it in the house, but that creates anxiety foe me.

Add me, I am starting over again!

I can so relate! I am trying to break the vicious cycle I have been on for 20 years. Only difference is, now I am 260 lbs and totally our of shape. Cannot walk around the block. I have posted/logged on here from time to time, each time feeling motivated and empowered. Within a couple of days, all of that enthusiasm and…

DH and I met in American History when we were Juniors in High School. There was something about him that intrigued me, but I am not sure what it was.

I am starting over again, but feeling very frustrated. A friend of mine has lost 22lbs since June 1st on a program called Ideal Protein. While I am happy for her, I don't want to be on a program that might be hard for me to maintain. So, I am on my own quest to find the sugars and carbs I can commit to stop eating and…

Feel free to add me!

Thank you for your post. It is nice to know I am not the only one that feels this way.

I turned 49 Sept 14 and would like to loose 100lbs by the time I turn 50. Feel free to add me.

My writing skills are not as good as yours, but I completely relate to your story. I too am trying to become the person I want to be. Activity came easy to me growing up, but once I got married, a sedentary life set in. My weight has reached a point I never thought I would. It is difficult for me to walk and breathe. It…

I am a Dallas and Houston fan. We had a great day today!!!

I am starting my journey to loose 100#. Would really like to join a gym, but not sure if I would go all the time. At this point, I can't even imagine working out that much. I can't even walk the mall without having to rest. Walking around the block sounds like a good place for me to start. May I use you as my inspiration?

Coke and chocolate, basically sugar in general. Once I start, I cannot stop.
