Starting Over
 

Hi all!

I belonged to 3FC a few years ago (different group) and lost a total of 30 pounds. Hooray for me! Only it didn't last. I slipped back into my old ways and gained every pound back. I'm an emotional eater and I could see the weight coming back while dealing with several major life changes, but I didn't care enough about the weight to do anything about it. Yesterday morning I stepped on the scale and saw a number that I haven't seen in over 3 years. I could kick my big fat behind for not stopping myself sooner...5 or 10 pounds would have been so much easier to loose than 30! I know I can do it though. I did it before with help and encouragement from this site, so I know I can do it again.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you all a little better. :)

Hi Suzy! You CAN do it!

Suzy: you did it before, so you know that you can do it again! This time stick around and chat with the maintainers so you can keep it off.

Welcome, Suzy! Looking forward to getting to know you... Feel free to jump right into our weekly chat.

Thanks for the welcome, ladies!

welcome Suzy, nice to see you - grew up in PA (Bucks County) and i'm over in NJ now

Hi Deb! I'm in the northern part of the state right on the NY state line.

:) get ready for more snow! here we go again

Yes, it's falling now with lots more to come! I am so ready for spring!

Welcome back Suzy!

I did the same thing, Suzy! I started over in January and started working out and lost 4 lbs. In February I really kicked it up a notch with watching my calories and portion size. This month my goal is to lose 6 pounds. I am almost there....2 pounds by Monday. I don't think I will make it but at least I am trying and the numbers are going down (however, slowly!).

I already have next month's goal....5 pounds and increase the intensity of my workouts.:cheer:

I intended to start over in January, but gained 5 pounds instead. :( I'm serious about it now! No more putting it off...time to get serious and get back in shape!
