I had to find somewhere to go for help and I found this site.

I have had issues with my weight for a long time now... it almost seems like it never wasn't an issue. In Aug. 2004 I was put on an rx from my doc and managed to lose almost 75 pounds. My start weight was 204 and I got down to 135. I looked great, I felt great, but it wasn't enough to change my eating my habits. I ate GREAT for 6-9 months. Then once I lost the weight I started slipping up here and there and wouldn't gain anything. Nothing good can last forever though and sure enough the weight crept back on. I am almost back to what I was when I began losing weight 2 years ago. I feel misreable, but I've put no effort into changing that. I think today may have been the last straw... I was at work and a parent asked me if I was pregnant!!! I said NO!! He then told me that I looked BIG! And I said yeah I know. Then he said no, no not your body as much as your face. :( How could someone say that to another person. Who wants to hear that they are fat? I know I say it 100x's a day about myself, but to hear someone else tell me I LOOK BIG! I laughed it off at work, but I wanted to ball my eyes out. I am big. I'm not the only one who thinks it. I know that now. I have to get rid of this FAT! It's not who I am. I feel like I'm in a fat suit. Unfourtunalty this suit is attached to me!!

I need the will power I had before. I know how awesome it felt to lose weight and have clothes I never could wear before fit me!! I know how it felt to be proud of myself. Right now I know how it feels to be disappointed in myself. Right now I feel awful. And I don't want to feel awful...
 
Welcome! :)

I'm new here too and this is a great place to start. So far everyone has been really supportive and helpful.
 
Thanks. I used to be on Phentermine.com's forum when I lost weight before. It was great support. And I know this will be also. I almost feel embarassed to show myself over there again. I have a sucess story posted and I don't deserve it. I don't want to disappoint anyone. I have to get myself together and lose the weight.
 
You know what, you got down before and I know you'll do it again!
Don't let anyone's insensitive comments get you down!
We all slip up once in a while, sometimes bigger and longer than others, but we can't just sit back and get depressed about it ya know :)

We need to pick ourselves up and say that we're not going to be this way anymore!

I know you're going to do awesome!

This is a wonderful place with the best group of supportive people around.

You have made the first step by admitting it to yourself and are now doing something about it. We are all struggling with the same fat image and we all have decided enough is enough. Good luck and keep us posted.
