Unhappy Tired of myself

OK - I found this site again and I am amazed at how its grown. I've never done the posing thing and I am notoriously horrible about being consistent at anything, but I will do my best.

I'm 35, have been overweight since I was 10. I lost down to my goal weight in 2001 on WW, became a leader, kept it off for 4 years without any issues and then got pregnant. I know, I know, oldest excuse in the world, but I just cannot seem to get back to my goal weight (which is pretty high for my height). I know what to do, I know how to do it, but I just can't seem to do anything consistently to get the weight off. I think I have lost and regained the same 10 pounds about 6 times so far this year. The lowest I've gotten in 2008 is 147.

I now have a 4 year old, I work full time+, I love to workout (when I can find time), and a wonderful supportive SKINNY (yes, I hate him for that) DH. We eat well and healthy (use a lot of Dream Dinners).

I need to find some way to do something (everything) consistently, to get it off and keep it off, so I can be happier with me and healthier for everyone.

Where should I start to connect with folks?

Hi there. Congrats on the big loss and returning to get back to goal. There is a WW forum if thats what diet you are doing. Also there is a 30-somethings fourm as well. Good luck

You came to the right place! Consistency is also a problem for me, which is why I love this site so much! The support & love you get from people here can not be found in your "real life". Very few people know what it is like to struggle with weight & trying to lose it, everyone here does! The most important thing to remember: even if you fall of track, get right back on! Don't get discouraged if you fall off the wagon, we all do! Welcome!

Hi txmom... I think you posted my story.

I lost down to 220 then gained it back and more when I was pregnant. I'm tired of this seesaw and need to know what I can do about it. It looks like we might be in the right place now.
