I have rarely posted since restarting (again:sad: ), but I can really feel the anxiety trying to keep myself in check. I am 56 yrs. old now and have been doing this yo-yoing since I was around 16. With me, it is ALL or NOTHING. If I mess up one day with eating/exercising, I just say to myself that I will restart next week…

Thank you for posting this thread. I would love to be added to the group. I desperately need teammates. I was on one but think that everyone left. I was here before a few years ago and now I am back w/47-50 lbs. to lose. I need motivation, especially in the exercise department. So far this week, I have managed to eat…

I don't know if anyone is coming back to this topic or not, but today I FINALLY made myself get on the treadmill, albeit for 10 minutes. I am out of shape in the worst way. Hopefully, every day I will increase it until I get to where I want to be. I miss you guys.:sad:

Hey, where is everyone?? LOL:smile: Is this topic finished? I have enjoyed everyone that has posted and am glad that I am not alone. There are people out there who have done this and we SHALL prevail again.

Congratulations!!!!!!! I will be extremely happy when I start to see a waist, lol. I have got to get motivated to exercise, but I really, really am having difficulty in that part of weight loss.

I LOVED your statement about restarting for the final time. I think I will make that my mantra while I go on this journey for the last time. It wasn't even that enjoyable gaining my weight back now that I think of it. I am glad I found this group to work with on this. Right now it is easy because I am so refocused. I KNOW…

I know how disappointed in ourselves we can get. I am 56 and been on this ride, off and on, since my late teens. I think my main problem is body image issues because we I do lose weight (and people notice and say so) I still see the fat person looking back at me in the mirror. It is really crazy. I only have a few things…

Thanks, AtlantaBob, for the tech help. I have done fine since Monday getting my eating under control. I cannot seem to motivate myself to exercise. I KNOW that it is a very important part of weight loss. I have a lot of issues w/spine arthritis and bulging disks. About a year ago I did yoga for about 4 months and it helped…

I am VERY proud of you that you are trying again. Try not to beat yourself up. If only I could follow my own advice.:smile:

I know this sounds crazy, but how do you save a message board that you join so you can easily find it? I am getting SO confused. I did this site about 2 years ago and don't remember it being a challenge. However, I cannot figure out how to add my food, exercise, or save a message board since this is my first try.…

I, also, can relate and understand relapsing. It seems that every time I get to my goal, or near it, I fall off the wagon. So, I guess you can call me a serial relapser. Sometimes, I think that is the thing in life that I do best. I am here again to make this happen again. Last time, I threw out almost all my "fat…
