A weight loss diary! :)

Hi everyone, I'm a new member here. Got to know this site just by googling 'weight loss support'. I realize that I can't do this alone, because I've been tyring and trying and yet fail to accomplish any weight loss :(

But a good thing about me is that no matter how many times I've tried and failed, I'd never give up on myself. But it can be tiring, can't it? But i will still persevere! :p

I used to be stick thin, and didn't have my period for 1 and a half years. So went to see the doc and she gave me this hormone pill. That, plus stress plus wrong food plus inactivity had led me gain much much MORE than I should!! :eek:

I then, of course, decided to lose weight. But until now, I suck at it. My main reason to lose weight WAS to look better and just that. But now, because I experience joint problems due to my heaviness and a colon disorder from my overeating.. my reason to shed off the fats is for my HEALTH!

However, I'm finding difficulty to lose weight because I don't have much support, even from my close friends. In fact, many criticize me because of my physical change that is SO SO rapid :( I just got criticized, again, yesterday, which made me overeat. JUST when I wanted to start this losing weight journey again.. but today I'm starting fresh (again), and vow that whenever someone criticizes me, I'd make sure that he or she knows how sensitive I am to it and ask for help.

Which is why I'm here!!! Oh and I do hope I can get some weight loss buddies..anyone?

Hi Eleanor. Yes, I think it's good to let people know when their comments hurt. The more we learn to speak our minds in a respectful manner, the more self respect we have, and usually the more respect we have from others. Then we feel more confident, and the weightloss is a bit easier. Good on you for never giving up on yourself. So many people do, because they feel they cant fight it anymore. Thats a real shame. You hang in there. There is loads of help and advice on this site. All the best:)
 
hi eleanor:)
I'm new too but I already know that these guys are all here to give support, you came to the right place! You can do it and you will, you've already taken the big step of saying "hey this isnt for all of you, this is for me! My health! My life!" and that's the spirit that will help push you along the way.

Take care :)
