Hi all...I'm just going to jump in. I'm more of a responder than an instigator

so I'll just post the intro here and then go back to posting replies.
Last year I finally decided to do something about all those extra ell bee's that crept on me...no more excuses, my baby was 3 years old, couldn't blame it on him anymore
So I joined WW online and was so determined! In three months I lost 20 lbs and loved the "weigh" I looked--or at least, wasn't as disgusted with myself as usual! My whole life I had been a thin or at least average-weight person and it was so hard to see pix of myself overweight. It was a SHOCK each and every time. I tried to tell myself the usual excuses...perimenopause, difficult teens, LOL, but....
Anyway, as much fun as it was to wallow in self-loathing

I did something about it. BUT...the pounds have now crept back on. ALL OF THEM!! And they brought a few friends to keep them company.
So now I'm back on WW online, hopping back on my treadmill every day (literally and figuratively). It's very encouraging to read all your stories and struggles and see how you have overcome. Thanks to all who post your stories.
