I use to post on this forum in the past, but sort of lost direction in life for a while. Needless to say because of my lack of care for myself I put weight back on.

I have decided that if it takes me three years to take off the weight, then it takes me three years. Yeah, sure, there are big events coming up, but big events last for one day, and I want my weightloss to last a lifetime.

As I have posted in previous threads, I do not have a lot of support here at home, so that is why I am here. Reading everyones post made me realize that I do not have to be alone in this fight. What I really need is a place that I can go and be held accountable. So,I guess that is why I am here.

Any advice or words of encouragement would so greatly be appreciated.

Debbie

Now I need to figure out how to get rid of my old tickers.
 
I'm so glad you decided to come back! :D Don't worry about the past, don't worry about putting some weight back on. Today is a new day. Just put it all behind you and focus on where you want to be. You can do this! And we will all be here to hold you accountable! ;)
 
Hi Debbie and welcome back. It's hard when you don't get support at home, but thank goodness for this forum. I feel like I would be lost without all the friends I have made here. I wouldn't be able to stay focused without them.

And like Hypo Hippo said today is a new today. A new change, a new start, a new life. It can all be yours. You've already taken that first step by coming here and we will all be here to support you.

(you can create a new ticker at tickerfactory.com and then edit your signature on the user control panel)
 
good attitude

Patience is definitely a virtue, and it sounds like you are coming at this with a great attitude this time! Just keep on posting and we'll keep on supporting! :)
 
I like the title of your journal because slow and steady DOES win the weight loss race. I hope you will share your progress with us.

Have a great day!!!
 
Okay, I did it again, went and disappeared. I really do need the support, but I need to commit myself to coming here to get it.

I have been doing what I would consider to be amazing with my weightloss. I am extremely happy to say that on July 9th I ended what seem to be the longest binging cycle of my life. It is the best feeling in the world. The sad part about it is that I have no one around me to share my joy with. My husband thinks that binging is an excuse to eat whatever you want and then try to put a psychological diagnosis on something that is completely ficticious. What does he know, he is your typical, cut athletic type.

I guess that is why I am here. I knew that there would be alot of you on here that would understand.
 
Hey L,

Thank you so much for stopping in my diary.

I understand about the no support at home. I have skinny-could-eat-anything-not-gain-a-pound husband too who just doesn' know what it's like to have the issues I do. That is why I found this forum. These people here are the best support you could ever want. This is how I stay on track. I check in here each and everyday and it helps a ton.

Welcome back and we're all here to support you! *Hugs*
 
Welcome back! I too love the title of your diary, because it's utterly true. Who cares about the rabbit? He'll just gain it all back! :) We're here to support you, and good luck!
 
I was doing so gosh darn well. I went one month to the day binge-free, and boom blew it. It didn't kill me, so I guess that means I have been given the chance to start again. I am so excited. After graduating almost two months ago, I finally got my first nursing job!! So I really want to stay focused, I am getting a whole new start on life.
