Hello everyone,
This is not technically my first post. I joined about three years ago after lurking for almost 6 months. I posted a couple of times before abandoning both this place and my diet. I been lurking again for a few months trying to find some inspiration and get some tips to restart my journey. The problem I have with weight loss is the same problem I have with every other aspect of my life. All or nothing syndrome! I feel like deciding to lose weight means I need to go from eating french fries and ice cream one day to eating all veggies the next and I need to like it. If I do anything short of that I consider it a failure and I give up. for a while I adopted the "so what if i'm fat forever" attitude but I cannot sustain this way. At 23 years of age I find myself out of breath after just tying my shoes. I can't live like this. So I'm back again, hoping this won't be my first and last post. I've already gotten some great tips just by lurking here and I'm sure I will learn more. More than anything I hope that I can continue to push forward through both successes and failures.
