I've come to a plateau in my weight loss and have been feeling a bit down because of it, so I scoured the internet looking for something that would give me inspiration, and I found this forum. Knowing that I'm not alone definitely makes my journey easier!
For almost all of my life I have struggled with weight issues, and I hit my highest weight of 283 about four years ago. I was in denial of how heavy I was, but one day I woke up and knew I didn't want to be fat anymore.
Over the last four years I have slowly but surely shed pounds, and about a year ago I dropped to 215 which I was so excited about, but then somehow I lost my way and ended back up to 230. It was definitely a blow to me since I had been doing so well.
I keep telling myself that losing and keeping off over 50 pounds is great, but then I think of how much more I need to lose to be at a healthy weight, and I feel like this is impossible, but that's why I'm here, I'm looking for that second wind to get me over the plateau that I'm on
Needing inspiration!
Look around! There are so many inspiring threads, and members and topics. People are just putting one foot in front of the other. Taking one day at a time. And always heading forward. 
But it's hard to feel motivated when I can't seem to lose a pound. I've been doing my best to keep my calories around 1,800 or lower, but it doesn't seem to be having any impact on my weight. I'm just baffled.
