Yeah I agree with this ,I really was having fun, it just at the same time felt like I was being singled out as THE biggest one. It just kinda got to me. As for motivation, I do want to get back on track. Today so far hasn't been good tho.

Oh absolutely and it has hindered it. Its really a long story...but the (rather long) basics are that the factors are mostly out of my control - in other words i cant really get rid of it that easily.
My sister has been having some health problems that kind of came up all the sudden, and she has also been going through some depression and other mental illness that has been very hard to deal with.
On top of that, my grandpa who has always been so witty and sharp minded is getting dementia/Alzheimers (they aren't sure) and started from mid January..at the time we thought it was a stroke that landed him in the hospital, but it eventually lead to a pacemaker and finally into a nursing home within the short time of 2-3 weeks. We thought maybe he would recover and his memory will be the same, but its slowly becoming obvious that he probably never will..
meanwhile my mom has been spending most of her time trying to figure out his estate since she has POA and has been away from home the most I can ever remember..and her brother is trying to get his hands on the money before the man is even dead. His wife has cancer, and his son, (my cousin) who I was good buddies with as a kid is getting himself in deep trouble with drugs and stuff.
At the same time my dads work is in an unstable situation. They keep changing hours and stuff.
Then there are the normal things, stressing out about college classes/finals etc coming up for me..
Since I am living at home I am around this stuff all the time, it just all really has made me fail at weightloss and has me pretty depressed to say the least.
