hi everyone... i've been trying to get this out but i'm sooo busy and i'm always interrupted. i tried posting this in the * newbie* section but not a lot of people go there it seems and i really really need your help.
my name's julie...and i'm new and this is just the kind of place i need to to be right now...anonymous...nobody from my family's gonna pop up @ anytime ,roll their eyes and moan about me complaining about my weight , so, i feel safe. to begin with , i NEED to lose about 80 lbs. almost 10 yrs. ago i took those same 80 lbs. off over a 10 month period of time with vigorous excercise and disciplined eating . About 4 yrs. ago i'd thrown myself into working 80 hours a week ( 2:30 pm - 6:30 am ...lots of dbl shifts) and my whole entire life spiraled out of control ; mainly- my eating and excercise routine. i'm still working those crazy hours, and now , at 43, i feel like it may not come off as easy as it did when i was 34. i cannot find the motivation to start no matter how badly i want it....i'm way too tired and sore and stiff to excercise.....and i never know when to eat and what to eat while i'm working all eve and throughout the night ,so i'm constantly grazing and forraging ...i put anything and everything in my mouth .
...so.....does anybody have any advice for me? i'm completely stressed about this...i feel so unhealthy @223 lbs.... ( 5'4" ) ...i was not prepared to be this heavy and unfit at this time in my life....and i'm scared it won't come off...i feel like my fat has taken on a life of its own lol......thank you for any advice you may have and thanks for this board.
