Hi everyone!
I weighed myself last wk b/c I was going to make a change. I thought I knew how much I weighed, but to my shock and horro I was about 35lbs heavier. I was stunned & hurt that I had allowed myself to slide so far "up" the scale.

So here it is a wk later & I've stuck to my diet, even started to work out. I guess I'm writing b/c I/m trying so hard to stick to it. I feel like my life depends on it. But dammit I want a damm cup of butter pecan ice cream lol .

I guess I just needed to vent. Craving has passed.
I got this!

aww don't worry too much hun, its fine, I was the exact same way as you! I was 97lbs heavier than I had first guessed. I'll tell you the same thing I was told, the scale is just a number! It doesn't make you a bad person, you aren't to blame, no one is.

I wish you lots of luck on your journey! hugs.

A cup of pecan praline sounds so good right about now. It's definitely hard but so worth it. Just remember u can do it!

Welcome and good luck on your journey!!!

Hello everyone,
Thank you soooo much for all your words of support & encouragement!
I was in a dark place that night. by the morning I was feeling much better. I have stuck to it & increased my workouts. I weighed myself on Monday & I lost 4lbs! Yay me! Thanks

Welcome! Good luck on your journey - just the fact that you're here is a great first step!
