An Old Newbie...or New Oldie

Ok so I used to be on the forum a long time ago. So for those of you who are Oldies, you may remember me. I'm doing a new introduction because it's been so long since I've been on that I'd say 99% don't know me.

That being said, this forum was a great tool for me. I lost weight and was looking really good and doing really well. I stopped coming around the site, dieting, etc. and the pounds just packed right back on. So here I am now, weighing even more than I did the first time, wanting to make a change in my life. I did it before, so I know I can do it again. I've been wanting to get back for a while but just haven't had the motivation to do it. To be quite honest, I really don't feel that I have it now either, but I'm forcing myself to do this.

I didn't want to commit because of stress...I didn't want to let others or myself down. One thing I know though is that there are going to be let downs....and uplifting times too. It's going to be hard...and easy at times. I have a lot going on in my life right now, but I've realized that I have to get this going NOW. I've put my health off for long enough. Do I think that all my stress is going to hinder my weight loss? Yes, but I have to try anyway. If I don't start now, then when? There's always something ready to stand in the way. SO I'm ready to try and get started. I know I'm going to need a lot of support along the way, and the forum has provided it for me in the past. I hope it will do the same for the future. :)
 
Hey girl, glad to have you back :D The forum hasn't been the same w/o you!

I know you have your conserns, but remember that a positive attitude goes a long way! Just make up your mind that yes, you'll have obsticles, always will, but you can beat them. You'll have your setbacks, we all do, but keep on keeping on, thats all you can do..you can't give up on yourself!

Just take it a day at a time...a pound at a time...I mean if you loose 1 pd a week..thats 52 pds by this time next year! thats huge!

You can do it!! I believe in you! Do you??
