new member, 1st time on a blog, 100th time on a diet
 

Today I started another diet. I have tried many, lost a few pounds, and always given up. I am going to make it this time!!! I'm tired of being short of breath just climbing the stairs. My first day consisted of just trying to eat sensible, oatmeal for breakfast, broiled fish and veggies for lunch, fresh fruit for snacks. I walked a mile. I caught myself reaching for things to eat while walking through the kitchen, not even aware of what I was doing, so now I will try to be more aware and always have my water bottle with me. This is my first time using a blog and I'm hoping it will help to keep me on track. I would love to hear from anybody.

newbie myself
 

Welcome! I just joined myself. There are so many amazing people here and so many threads to investigate. Good luck to you. I know you can do it!

I am new too. Just joined yesterday. I have lost much weight before but put it all back on. Doing WW again...I can do it and so can you. Best of luck. I know the feeling of eating without even realizing that you are eating. It is an addiction that we all need to break. good luck and we are here for you!

hello welcome and good luck

hi mema57
 

This is my first day on the support forum and my second week on LA weight loss. I have tried dieting in the past and never worked so I thought I would try some support and see if that helps

With all due respect, GET OUT OF THE DIET MENTALITY! RUN FROM IT!
Don't use the word DIET.
Ok, whew thanks for letting me get that out.
I feel this is all , and I mean ALL mental.
I get the feeling that you jump into this gung ho- trying to be perfect, but when you slip up, you stop..
Don't do that!
I am down 105 pounds- I don't use the word CHEAT, nor do I say I was BAD- I don't wait to be happy for when I lose weight- I will be happy now-- and do the best that I can -
That's just my 2 cents :)
Best of luck :))
