3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

And hopefully won't fall off the wagon again! Hello everyone! Hope your Friday is going well. I'm back on 3FC after hmm... 8 or 9 months? Reached my goal in Oct. 2010, 115lbs. I was so dang proud of myself. After a month or so, I thought I was looking a little gaunt, and maybe my bone structure just doesn't work with a weight that low. So through Feb 2011 to May 2011 I gained 10-15lbs back and was most happy with myself. That same May we moved back to MN to be with my dad, who has advanced prostate cancer. We ended up having to live with my dad, stepmom, little brother and two stepsisters for about 2 months while waiting for the deal on our house to go through. It took my husband a long time to find his footing in the job market here, so we were struggling with that, and the illusions that my step mom wasn't actually the angel we thought she was, far from it actually. Long story short, I really let myself go. I still got out and exercised every now and then, but went right back to comfort eating. So I went from 130 in May to 170 now, pretty disappointing if you ask me. I've been trying to get back on track for a couple months now, but kept letting my stressors get the best of me. FINALLY, this Monday it kicked in, I HAVE to do this and keep it off this time. Too many women in my family yo yo with their weight and have been struggling for years, and I can't do that to myself! No more excuses, no more slacking off, doing it for me! I'm so glad I thought to come back here, 3FC has been such a blessing in the past. Thanks so much for reading!
