I'm finally going to take control of my weight.
Tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of the death of one of my best friends. Since then I have gained around 25 pounds.
I am tired of this weight gain. I am tired of trying to cover up. I am going to take control.
I hope to be able to talk to all of you as often as I can :hi:

1. Do it to it, Mollis
And check out the threads here as well. There are lots of inspirational stories here including some who have lost over 100 pounds.

5. For me anyway, the determination is the
hardest step. Once that is underway, the rest follows.

Best of luck.

6. Determination is hard for me, too.
6 months ago I told myself the same thing...but after a month with no weight loss, I got fed up and stopped what I was doing.
But I have been working for a week...and I lost a pound or two. yay :D

7. Good luck.
YOU ARE WORTH TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF!!!!!

I've been doing WW and am almost at my goal weight. Again. But at least I catch myself before I get too far off track. I've lost and kept off about 35 pounds in the last 3 1/2 years.
