Hi every one...I'll just keep this short and sweet for now...It's been quite the journey getting to where I am now (230 pounds)...last year I was around 280 pounds...my goal is to get down to about 170 pounds but I don't want flabby skin...it's been quite the experience...at first I was really motivated, then something happened, I lost my motivation...it's been up hill, down hill, uphill, down hill....u know the drill...I"m at the point where I feel like I've almost lost myself completely...I need help...

hey.. congratulations on losing the 50 pounds to start off with.. :).. it goes to show that u can lose the rest of the weight as well.. just keep your chin up and u'll get there...

let us know of ur plans..if ur going for work-outs.. or the changes u want to bring in ur eating habit.. u'll get there :D :D
 
This is going by your signature, and is not usually advice I would give cause I'm not a churchy person, but maybe see if your church has any support groups for weight-loss? They usually have things like that right?

Think of how much better you feel now over how you felt at 280. Just look at pictures of yourself at 280. I do that, and it motivates me. What you've done already is pretty amazing, its hard to break habits, very hard.
 
You CAN do this. You've come a long way so far. This site is great for motivation and support, you can search for support groups around you or even people interested in activities that you like that you can get in on to help!
 
*I feel like crying*...happy tears, that is!

Thanks sooo much everybody. It means so much to have positive feedback and encouragement. Thanks Jeff for your support as well and for redirecting my focus...I'll be checking in from time to time...Does anyone suggest visiting daily or how often?...Well I'm about to call it a night, tomorrow's a new day, a clean slate!...Keep up the good work everyone, move more, and drink an extra glass of water....:seeya:

You have to create an account and new ticker. Its very easy. Just go to and start designing your ticker. When you're done designing it, you can enter your starting weight, your goal weight, PIN code (password) etc. then you can copy & paste the code into your signature here in your User CP.

As for how often to visit here? As often as you like. Some come here every few days, while others come here several times a day. I'd suggest starting a diary in the diary section of the forum too... that hives you a place to journal your progress, vent frustrations, celebrate victories, etc. and for people to give you feedback.

Its a good idea to read through the stickied posts in the different areas too... there's a lot of questions you likely have that will be answered there.

And welcome! :biggrinjester:
