Hi Everyone
Iam not a great typer or speller but want to be a part of this.....
I live on a resort in a natioanl park Death Valley to be exact its a small town and have lived here seasonally 15 years but dont seem to hook up with freinds... Iam happily married with a great big Great pyrenese puppy to keep me busy. Iam a waitress SO AM AROUND FOOD ALL DAY...I have been yo yo ing forever I am 54 weigh about 160 creeping weight on daily.
I as many other obsess about food and beat my self up every day and night about it. I have clothes from 8 to 16 in my wardrobe. IAM SICK AND TIRED OF BEING SICK AND TIRED. Iam active walk every day use to last year exercise several hours a day have tracked intake out go. Think I may need others to share with. My husband just tunes me out over 30 years hes heard it all.
MY highest was 174 and lowest 124 for about a day {2 years ago} Thanks for listening I am soooo DEPRESSED!!!!!!!! DEVA
 
Deva welcome :) Feel dree to share whatever you want with us here. you can if you want start your online diary to keep track of what you eat, or just get some advice or even just to blow of some steem. this diary is helping me a lot, because i keep track of what i eat and i'm also venting a lot what's bothering me.
also join some challenge clubs and help others, that can also be motivating. we'll support you here.

Welcome!! I know how it feels to feel like you are the only one that cares if you aren't happy with your body and the way you look or feel.. That is one reason that I am so glad I found this forum! Being able to talk to people going through the same thing (or close to it) lets you know you're not alone and that people care.. GL with losing weight!!! :D
 
i feel ya

hey deva, i am a newby to. don't feel bad or depressed we have all been there that is why we are here. for 9 yrs i complained and moped and ran off at the moth to anyone who would listen to me about how i was going to loose the weight, until finally everyone husband included was like ya right ok and what day did you say you were going to start.lol. well one day i went to the doctor and was at a 265 fasting sugar and the doctor tells me loose it or die pretty much and that is when my start date was. there is no such thing as a diabetic diet but believe you and me i made one up. eatting fruit including watermellon, veggies in abundance like a whole bag of frozen veggies equalling only to about 100cal. in 1 month i lost 40 lbs 25 ovecourse being water weight gain. so even though you work around food try eatting every 5 hours the time it takes for your body to digest food, eat like you have diabetes no refined sugar, no bread unless sugar free, no soda exept 1 cup sugar free a day, atleast 4 liters water a day. also stop being depressed all you will do is mope and never see the light at the end of the tunnel. your husband will be so happy to buy you new things and you will be just as happy to axcept;)
 
Hey Deva,
Welcome to the WLF!
Feel free to pull up a chair, and open your own diary. It's a great way to keep focused :)

Good luck on this journey! You can do it!
 
THANK YOU ALL
Have been gone t beach for a get away and am headed to foot dr. in the morn Work right now.. It means so much that you all answered me I felt like such a LOSER and not the good kind Deva
 
Deva,
The only losers we have around here ARE the good kind :D

The Weight loss losers!!

You can do this, getting started is often times the hardest part, but there's a snowball effect to success - every little bit breeds the desire for more success, and you CAN find yourself at your goal.

Hi
Been very busy but have started working out again which helps me so much mentally. Had a lot of negative stuff going on at work and really need to shake it I don t have the emotional time for that. I AM HAVING A MUCH MORE POSITIVE OUTLOOK! SOOOO i am watching what I eat doing a little bit better on the healthy choises and eating less. The new meds I am taking {for neuopathy of my feet a tarsel syndrome thing some times un bearable but trying to deal with it in a positive way} OFF track is helping me GAIN weight so need to be careful. We are headed home to our mt. home first time since summer. Cant' wait! deva
