Default I've been here before...

I've been on this side of the line, two years back, and the progress I managed to make is now gone. BUT. I'm ready to get back into gear.

A lot has changed since the last time I was here. I went from living in IL, to four different places in GA, and now I'm in CO. I'm two years older and I REALLY want to get a grip on myself with this weight thing.

The reason it took a backseat is because I started my first ever long term relationship in the middle of it all and just fell into it. I'm finally coming up for air in the midst of unemployment and uncertainties in my future regarding where I end up and where my relationship is going.

It has been a crazy haul, and I definitely wouldn't change it. But. I see this point of upheaval in my life as a pivoting point. I can either take hold of it and make it what I want it to be, or I can sit back and let things happen.

I'm tired of letting things happen.

And thus, my journey begins once more.

Well, I've never been HERE...but I've been on the weight loss, weight gain, weight loss merry go round before. I lost 70 pounds several years ago and have put all but maybe 15 back on and I'm still needing to lose over 100 pounds. I'm hopeful though. Good luck.

Thanks for the welcomes!

I am really looking forward to this. Being back on track this past weekend has been particularly motivating.

Welcome back! You've got such a great attitude towards your situation, wishing you all the best with your weight loss. Being positive about it is the best way to lose, I think
