The latest chapter in my journey starts today! Let's hope it's the final one.

  • Hi All,
    Thank you for letting me join your community. I have been trying to lose weight for three years and getting no where. I had some success with weight watchers initially, but I found the meetings stressful, so I tried to continue by myself from home. I was successful in stopping myself from gaining weight for a couple of years, but I didn't lose any. This term (I am a teacher) has been really stressful and the workload is heavy and I have stopped exercising and the binge eating is creeping back in. I have PCOS and we are trying for a baby, so weight gain and poor habits are disastrous for me. Hopefully, this is the start of me turning over a new leaf.
    Take care,
    BrightBirds
  • Welcome! I ♥ Teachers. You give so much of yourself to help children reach there potential, teachers are not paid enough and not given enough respect so I just wanted to say thank you for being a teacher.

    I also love babies :-) and I do hope you get to have a little one of your own some day soon, and I know its stressful when it doesnt just happen (not for myself but I have a few friends and a sister who have been TTC for a while now, years for some) Good luck with that.

    Now for the weight loss, congrats on trying to improve yourself I really think if you put your mind to it you can do anything. Good luck with everything you rock!
