I spend some time reading post on here before deciding to join, it seems that people are truly looking to help one another and that in itself is inspiring. For me this has been a life long challenge that always seems to get the better of me. I’ve lost/gained weight (40~60 lbs) every year, this year I am ashamed to say I am at my heaviest ever. I’ve done just about every mainstream diet and they help me lose weight, just not keep it off. I understand that I need a lifestyle change not a diet.. I am 6’ @ 265 lbs, I am active, I go the gym at least 3 days a week but my issue is stress and I know it but I can’t seem to control it. High blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes all run in my family, and thank God I don’t have any of them yet.. I am hoping I can get tips and support to help me.. I am tired of being out of control.
Back on the wagon..

Stress is a huge factor in my life as well I have a stressful job and a natural worrier at that. One thing thats neat is just reading posts keeps you thinking about healthy mind set. I read a lot on here I didint come here for tips I know what i need to do just more to relate with others we all have same struggle its nice to see others share their thoughts on the issues that we all have, and some of the amazing accomplishments they are quite inspiring.
Thank you for the warm welcome. I guess I should have been more clear, when I stated tips I was referencing tips on dealing with stress.. My stress is more work related than anything. It's taken me YEARS to learn to not bring stress from the job to the house.. Now I work from the house more than 1/2 of the time, so now what??
