Sad, disgusted, discouraged but determined!
 

I am a life long dieter, just not always successful. I am ready to start again, after weighing in at 200.3 today. My highest ever was 203 and I did Body for Life and got down to 165 but had to have surgery, and then hurt my neck and have gained it all back and can't do weight lifting anymore. I know all the "right" things to do but my stress and emotional eating gets the best of me. I am hoping that this time will be different. I am starting calorie counting tomorrow, I know my numbers and I do like to exercise, so if you all will have me, I would love to become an active poster to this site and rely on others to share this journey with me. I am 43; married and my 73 year old mom live in my basement. I am doing this because my health is in danger of taking a turn for the worse. My BP and cholesterol are high, diabetes runs in my family and I really just tired of thinking about my weight all the time. I want to be done with it and be able to fill my mind with something useful! LOL. Anyone that wants to be a buddy let me know. I am looking forward to getting to know you all better. Thanks for listening.

Hey, I am glad you are here. I here you on the health issues. I have several family members that are sick--parents both have heart disease and diabetes, two sisters with MS and another with breast cancer. The writing is on the wall and I want nothing to do with it if I can help it.
