I may fail, but I refuse to quit.... - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

shelby897 · 05-03-2009, 10:32 AM

I'm back, again (and again, and again...). I think this may be my third or fourth trip back to "3 fat chick" island. But I refuse to give up

I have managed somehow to gain ANOTHER 40 pounds (apparently I have "weight loss confusion" -- as it should be going down, not up!!) and I'm very close to 300 lbs (

-- how did that happend from the days when people call me "too thin"??? So now instead of needing to lose 100 pounds, I need to drop 110

and I am d. However, I'm going to spend today making goals I can keep, planning it all out and getting my butt in gear!!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend and look forward to joining the "onederland" members someday

Welcome back!

I am like you! I started my diet again yesterday, as I gained loads of weight. I had lost 13 kilos and I gained 9. My objective is to get to 78, though I am realistic and I know it's difficult. So I will be happy if I get to 88-90

well welcome back! It doesn't matter how many tries it takes, as long as you keep trying! Good for you. It takes a lot of courage to keep going. I have also been trying for years to lose my weight and think that this may be it!
Good luck!

You didn't fail, you detoured and now are returning on your right course.

Failing is giving up all together. I too, fall off and lose my way, but I've promised myself that I will never ever give up, ever!

Good for you making goals. I find that if I have goals written down that I can visually look at it helps me stay on track.

You ARE NOT A FAILURE IF YOU REFUSE TO QUIT! I hear your frustration and that is so hard, but you are not a failure. There's few here, I'm sure who made it out the gate the first time. But you're back and that is sooooooooo sooooooo amazingly awesome. You have courage, girlfriend! It's so much fun here - I bet this time you'll make it. I have "quit so many" things now - the weight/overeating for comfort - is the last one in a long series of things (like cigarettes and bad men). One thing I do know, is ultimately you will succeed. You just can't give up.

Can't wait to hear more and follow your posts!
