  • Consider baseball. Even if you don't like it, read on. Even the greatest of the great failed 60-75% of the time. "Batting 500" is failing half the time and that's almost an impossible average to maintain over the course of the season. But even the greatest of the great kept trying despite knowing that they would fail at…

  • One day at a time says it all...I've been overwhelmed for so long. I finally decided that I don't know what I can do about the mountain I have to climb, but I'm going to get my butt out of this chair and do SOMETHING. That was 2 1/2 weeks ago. I have diabetes. And I'm broke, so can't afford my meds right now. My fasting…

    in what are you proud of about yourself today? Comment by swtposey November 2013
  • loriq41 is absolutely right. You definitely need to start slow. I am an all or nothing person. Sounds like you are too. When I'm bad I'm very bad. I can gain weight at the speed of light! But it's much slower going taking it back off. You have been through so much. You said food has been your comfort. I've had the same…

  • The best tip I can offer is to note down everything you eat, even on those bad days. Seeing what I've done in black and white is a huge motivator for me. It also helps me get back on course when I see how badly I've done. Math doesn't lie!! And reach out for support. We are all in it together!

  • Your suit sounds lovely. Have confidence in yourself! My sister has RA. I have seen what she has had to battle. If you can handle that, you can OWN this job. God be with you!

    in 20lbs by Christmas- who's with me? Comment by swtposey November 2013
  • Out of the mouths of babes...I was babysitting for a friend. The little girl was 6 years old at the time. She patted me on the stomach and said, "Maybe you've got a baby in there and just don't know." I probably lost a pound laughing so hard.

  • I'm just starting on MFP. This is my very first forum post. Girl, you are an inspiration for having lost 77lbs!! I'm 48 years old, have diabetes, can't afford my meds...so I'm trying to take better care of myself. Hopefully I will be able to go back to dr. soon and get prescriptions renewed and get back on my meds. I know…
