Hello Everyone!!
I don't know if anyone remembers me. It's probably been a year since I've last visited.
I haven't really had a chance to read all prior posts so I'm gonna just try to catch up as I go on. Not sure if I know most of you or not. Looking forward to knowing you all.
Brief summary:
-weight problem my entire life. up down up down
-7 years ago lost 75 pounds and was done to 175.
-Bam-got pregnant-gained 45-had son and gained and gained and gained and gained.
-joined ww and starting posting here around 2(?) years ago-lost 20 or so-got discouraged and stopped.
-saw a therapist and recognized the "eating disorder" (complusive overeating and depression)
-past year talked and talked but never acted
-I think something might have clicked
I hope so anyway! i JOINED A GYM TODAY!!!!!!
Since I obsess over food, whether I'm eating out of control or dieting, I'm trying a different approach. Thought I'd try to excercise and try to get in shape and if I'm less stressed I won't binge as much!!
Anyway, this is one of the few places I could share my excitement. Not many people understand how hard it is for someone over 250 pounds to join a gym.
Can't report the weight yet. I have not been weighed in. I go Thursday nite to work with a personal trainer and set up my workout.
Keep your fingers crossed for me!
Hope to check in soon.
