I am new to this forum, and I would like to tell you my story... I have been overweight my whole life up until I was 15, I lost a lot of weight and felt great! It was the highlight of my life, at that time I got the man I wanted and I felt better than ever. After I had my first child I have gained all of my weight back including more, its been two and half years since then I have been on weight watchers, I tended to graze alot on that diet which led to overreating alot of times.... I tried phentermine, and yes it worked but after losing 40 pounds it did not work anymore so I gained it back. I have 20 pounds that I have been yo-yoing around for the past few years.... I make the SAME resolution every single year to lose weight... This year I am being realistic I want to lose 80 pounds this year, well I want 100 but like I said I am trying to be realistic. I have already started my lifestyle change... I am just starting week 2... as for a diet I usually don't last past week 1 80% of the time, and 20% of time I cant make it past month 1. I am ready to stop carrying all of this around I motivate myself but inspirational pictures, my old pictures, weight loss motivational videos and now I am joining this forum to get motivation also!! I have a computer notebook where I track my meals, my thoughts, and my goals... and also In that notebook I have an area where every day I write 5 new reasons why I want to lose weight.... My motto is " I have a million different reasons not to eat right and lose weight, but I guarentee you that I have double the reasons why I want to lose weight!"
So please inspire me help me I dont know I need all the support I can get!!
I have not weighed myself because I feel like the scale is discouraging so I go by how my clothes fit and the mirror and how I feel. That is until I know that I have lost a significant amount of weight.... I want a better life!!
