Trying again doesn't mean I've failed. It means that I have not yet accomplished my goal. And how incredibly wonderful it is that I have yet another shot! I'm fortunate not to have mobility issues (other than I have lots to move around! =), not to have food allergies or diabetes, so I can eat almost whatever wonderfully healthy food that I can afford, and that I have lots of time this summer to attack this issue.

So, for today, I will eat wonderfully healthy food and enjoy the exercise that my body has wanted me to do for some time. I will no longer watch the joggers with jealousy, remembering when I had the stamina to accomplish that. I have not abandoned exercise entirely, just have not done it with the regularity I needed, and surprised myself by being able to complete a pretty hard work-out today. Yay, my amazing and wonderfully forgiving body!

Have been reading posts. Can't wait to get back on a daily routine of checking in with old and new friends and enjoying this journey together!

We can never stop trying again!

So glad you posted! Yes...we can't stop trying again becausse it could be THE time that it really takes. That you are really ready. I don't think there's anyone here that hasn't had to 'try again'. I mean...even the folks who are maintaining.

You've got a good outlook. Carry on!
