Guess who's back, back, back..
 

Hello all from Indiana,

I was on here some years back. I lost weight and have recently gained it all back plus more. I am at a point where it hurts to live, as in my body hurts all the time. If I try to do some walking my chest automatically starts pounding with pain. I hate feeling heavy all the time. I have motivation to get healthy in my mind but my body is like no. And so, i gain and gain weight. I need motivation to get started working out. My work schedule makes me not want to so anything afterward. I am looking for support from wherever I can get it.

Welcome back. I know how you feel. Right now I think the best thing is to take it one day at a time. That is what I tell myself. I recently re-gained 80 pounds after getting injured. Now my work schedule sucks and I am still not fully able to workout. However I am scared of my weight going any higher so that is my motivation. I haven't been working out yet but I just signed up for this virtual 12K where you do 1K a day for 12 days in a row. I think it is great motivation and I know I can walk less than a mile. I just have to do it slowly. So my advice to you is to pick anything and just do something slowly until you can do more

Welcome back! :Welcome2:

I was starting to feel that way at my high weight. I was so uncomfortable in my body, and it was just beginning to really hurt. Not fun.

Good luck with everything! :wave:

Welcome back!
You can lose fine without working out. Working out is healthy & wonderful but not necessary for weight loss. Best wishes to you!

Thanks!
 

Thanks for the replies of motivation. I really appreciate it and knowing I'm not alone and having people to talk to helps. Thanks y'all :)
