A step in the right direction feels good
 

I recently came back after a long winter of slacking and I'm really determined to knock this weight off. I was feeling really down last night and came here for support, the people on here are amazing as usual.

So today I weighed myself, restarted my journal, looked up recipes, workouts for my body type, heart healthy foods. I went in the kitchen, tossed out every piece of tempting junk and went to the store. My fridge and freezer is chock full of veggies, fruits, and lean proteins. I'm even staying open minded and trying some new things - eggplant, salmon, coconut oil, quinoa, kale and black beans. :dizzy:

No working out today but will do some tomorrow, and I'm actually looking forward to it :carrot:

Welcome back Skettihead03!
Way to go on tossing out the old! That always means business!
Much to my families horror I am always trying new things.
Feel free to share new ideas in our Whats for dinner? thread.
The 300+ Chat Thread is really great for daily (or how often you like) support.
Good luck on your journey!

Hey, Skettihead! Good for you for getting out of the doldrums. It's a long, long trip we're on, so good for you for taking the next step.

Good luck!! You sounded determined! Keep that up!! Never give up hope!!

Thanks all! I am determined, and I am promising myself to not give up hope! I deserve to do this for myself. :)

You definitely do deserve this! I'm glad you're back on your game! Way to go!!
