S/C/G: Starting Weight 223

Height: 5'8"
Default Help...Need a support group
I am almost embarrassed to say that I have gained over 30lbs over the past year. I have had a lot of stressful events, mostly good but stressful and I have lost control. I lost 50lbs in 2003 and kept it off until now and I know I need to lose but I am not really motivated. I am starting a weight loss plan on Monday, March 1st and I'm looking for some support---- some fellow dieteeeeers. I try to ignore my weight because I am totally disgusted with myself. Even though I can no longer fit into my clothes. I booked my trip to Cancun for June 23rd and need this weight gone... Come 1 come all let’s join together and fight this battle.. I will do weight watchers (not the meetings.. just doing my points myself)

I too, need to be back here for support, so count me inas part of your support, hopefully, I can count on you as part of my support! I have joined an Anytime Fitness the middle of Jan, and have been trying to get there at least 3 times a week. It is incredibly intimidating for me, since I am so overweight, and really, really out of shape ( well, I guess round IS a shape...) but, I want to figure out how to get a handle on my eating. Perhaps this board is what I need ( again)!

Startiff, welcome. We are here for you. I regained my weight loss from last year due to stress as well. Can totally sympathize. My first piece of advice tho is not to wait til Monday. Start tomorrow. Start now.....Put down the pizza and step away........

Hi all,

I went to the YMCA today for my MICROfit wellness test. I never in a million years believed that my body fat percentage would be 38.8. Like you, I am dedicated to loosing the weight this time.

Don't know if you're interested, but there's a March Weight Loss Challenge. It's a great source of encouragement and support for me!

You have begun your journey. How did you do on your first day? I am sluggish. I hope I'm not coming down with ear infection. I did better yesterday than I did today. We had a faculty meeting and I nibbled on snacks I shouldn't have, but I counted every calorie....and then some... Yikes! I hope you did good today.

Default Not Satisfied- Need help!!
I joined this forum in hopes of getting the support I need to lose the weight I gained during the last 6 months. I've tried getting back on track at the beginning of the year but failed. I hope with everyones help here, I can make it happen. My current weight is 162 and my goal is to get to 147lbs. Yesterday I began making changes on the way I've been eating and started my exercise program at home. I hope to stick to this and reach my goal weight by July in time for my Cruise. Today is my 2nd day doing my Weight Watchers and having to stay within my daily point range is driving me crazy. I just had a Lean Cusine and a side of broccoli and I'm still not satisfied. OMG, I just wish I could have some chocolate or something... I am getting a headache from not having enough food :-(
