I'm there: 290.2 today. Highest ever, and I really feel like there's no end in sight. We're having extremely hot, humid weather, and it seems like each day I get on the scale, it's gone up a little more.
I've been battling my weight, with varying degrees of success, for over 30 years now, and it's getting so frustrating now that I'm on the verge of JUST NOT TRYING any more.
It was only a few months ago that I hit the 280s. Now here I am at 290.
I just CANNOT hit 300, because if I do, I have a feeling I'll be so overwhelmed I'll just give up. I know there are people here who started at over 300, but they must have tons of inner strength or something I don't have, because lately, each time I try to lose weight, my inner strength is weaker than the time before.
I'm only 53, too young to sit in a chair or otherwise be inactive for the rest of my life.
Did you ever hit a "what's the use of trying" number? How were you able to muster up the strength and caring to give it another try?
I feel like I have SO much to lose now that, as slow as I lose, I'll NEVER make a dent in it.
