Ok everyone, I haven't been on in a LONG time and I have to admit that with not being here and seeing those who've come a long way and such, I've slacked off a lot and I've gained 6 pounds! I thought I could do it on my own but I just can't. SO I'm back because I need all the support I can get. I feel so bad for slacking and then the sadness turned to guilt which tunred into defeat...thinking this is how I have to be for the rest of my life when I know that it does not have to be this way! Why am I thinking like this?
Anyways, I'm back and I'm ready to get serious this time. Any advice?
You CAN do this! You just weren't ready before, and now you are! So what's your plan? I'd say first, throw all the crap outta the house (or give it to mom, or coworkers or something). Then, head to the grocery & stock up on healthy foods - fruits, veggies, lean meats. Then, figure out your exericse plan! 3 x's week! You can do it!
Think of it as a learning curve - now that you know what you need to do to lose just jump back in the saddle and the scale will be heading in the right direction soon. All of us have setbacks in our weight loss journey. Tomorrow is a new day. You can do it!
Good for you! Coming back on this site is the first step. Check out the journals for my post today. I screwed up MAJORLY on my diet this weekend. I was a pig for two days and my weigh-in is Tuesday!!! It sucks, but I need to keep going, and so do you. That's why I love this site so much! We can all help each other.
