  • I started to take control of what I ate because I have severe back pain (arthritis) and was basically in bed 80% of the time. I had to push past the daily constant pain to get up and get walking. I could only do 10 minuets at a time with great pain. I also was sick of waiting for life to "get better". How was it going to…
  • I agree with DaRealMckoy. Have you talked to your doc about how you are feeling? I couldn't get going on my weight loss journey until I got help with my social anxiety and panic attacks. After I was on a couple different RXs and started to feel better I was able to handle the everyday struggle of eating better and…
  • Just for today (2:05am Wednesday Oct 9th) I will stick to my meal plan and walk this evening for at least 20 minutes. No excuses!!
  • Oh good lord! I know I was eating at LEAST 5,000 cals. I too would only have 1 or 2 meals a day. It seems to be something in common here ;) I know that if there were grocerys in the house, they wouldn't stand a chance around me! :D Jeez.. why did I respond to this again??? :blushing:
  • I too have taken Phentermine in the past and it worked GREAT for the first month. Then my regular appitite came screaming back! Eeeek! That was years ago. When I just started to get motivated and statred to watch what I ate again I went to my Doc who had me start on Buspar, an anti -anxiety pill and Celexa also for…

It dosen't look like you have a whole lot to loose so thats good! Get off the extra before you end up like me! I need to loose like... a person off…
  • When I'm sick (like today) I just don't have the mental or emotional energy to plan out my meals. I also (just figured this out today in fact while doing some soul searching) tend to try to make myself feel better with food. Its in ingrained habit that I still fight with. Sigh. :grumble:
  • Yes.. hang in there! I have arthritis in my back and knees so I know what its like to have to work so hard to do any little thing. I just started walking about a week ago and my back is aching as usual, but I also know that with arthritis (and me being only 33) I have to push past the pain to keep walking and moving or…
  • You come here!! You read about what others have had to go thru to get thru the day of eating healthy! You reach out to one of your friends either on here or in "real life" ;) Write in a journal about how being overweight has make you feel and how you WANT to feel. Don't let the past dictate your future! Don't let the…
  • Hi! I too have been overweight/obese my whole life. All my childhood pics are me (chubby/rotund) next to a small thin child.. :grumble: sigh. I love the motivation and accountability I feel with my friends on MFP and love to see my newsfeed at the end of the day. I log daily and comment often! I'll try to help you in any…
  • Y'all can add me too! The more the merrier!! :)
  • Hey Kick.. I would love to slap you over email! ;) Just kidding.. well..not really! :tongue: Feel free to add me. I log daily and comment often.
  • Hi! I comment often (altho I don't think I'm that great at kicking butt. More like being positive) and log daily. I love the accountability I feel from all my MFPals. It really motivates me to give it my all day after day! Feel free to add me! :smile:
