    Hey all,
    Yep I am back...again. I am having a very hard time with this I keep falling off the wagon...I got down to 201 now I am back up to like 206. I can't keep motivated and I think I have a strong addiction to fast food...and sweets...and well food in general. This time I have given myself something to work for. I want to try out for canadian idol this year and with the weight I am at now I won't be comfortable on camera...and also looks do have somethign to do with it. So I want to lose some weight by april. I have signed up for singing coaching and am LOVING it. I also bought a rebounder and am getting dance dance revolution. I am setting my daily limit back at 1400 cal intake. I would really like a support buddy if possible someone to check in with I am a stay at home mom and home ALLLLLL day I don't drive so I sit with my own thoughts and fridge full of food. I would love to have someone on my msn or something like that to keep me on track. I want it more this time then I have ever wanted it!!!!

    IrishFairy: The 3rd time is a charm, as well as the 300th time! I look to my sister for inspiration... She must have jumped on and off the wagon a thousand times before it finally clicked for her. She now has a beautiful figure she has worked hard for and has kept her weight off for over 8 years. We can do this too!

    Good luck in '08!!!

    Hey IRISH!! I'm back as well!!! I really am not going to list excuses of why I fell off the wagon except that it was my fault, but now I'm back. I got 5 weddings to attend this year! Yikes! May is when the first starts. So I got 5 months! We can do this guys! With support and determination we will kick the fat out of us.

    Hi Everyone!

    I am back again too! I started to notice my clothes getting tighter and decided to step on the scale, i have put on 5 pounds in the last 2 months so it is time to get with the counting again. I am sooooo unhappy with the way i look and i need to get serious about the weight lose! At work we were offered a reduced rate @ goodlife so for the first time i am joining a gym and i hope spending the money on the membership will keep me motivated.

    Go You!!!
    First off, congratulations getting back on the wagon! Thats what really counts! I'm in a similar situation... we can support each other! I started at 156 and got down to 128. But, after about a year of on and off dieting, I am now at 143. Time for a change!

    I am also completely addicted to fast food, sweets, and food in general! As for your singing... GOOD LUCK!!!! You'll do great! I have won a few state competitions myself... but thats where that story ends! No American Idol for me!! Definitely a great motivator though! Maybe we were separated at birth!

    I'm currently eating 1200 calories and trying to incorporate more exercise. My job is sitting all day... and boredom = eating (for me) so I'm pretty much getting paid to increase my weight! (j/k!) I don't have msn but do have Yahoo. Feel free to message me any time!
