Default I am back...again!

Well I am back. Not sure if anyone remembers me but I joined here last winter with very good intentions and motivation to lose weight. This year has thrown me a few curveballs that I didn't expect, the biggest was a divorce. My divorce will be final next month and after over 5 years as a married SAHM I am figuring out how to be independent and get out there in the world. It is scary but exciting at the same time. The good news is that I am still at 200 lbs which is what I have for some time now. The bad news is that I haven't made much progress on losing weight. Lately though I have been starting to work out and eat healthy and I really want to lose the weight. I am trying not to be too hard on myself but just take things day by day and try to move forward. Can't wait to see how everyone is doing!

I'm restarting after a summer of injuries and illness so we can restart together!

Wishing you the best of luck with all the changes in your life.

Hi Liz. I've been though a divorce and although many years ago now I still remember the trauma of it. In the end I was glad it happened but it took a little while. I too congratulate you on not gaining back the weight you initially lost because that in itself is a great feat! I also think it resets your set point so that your body is willing to stabilize at a lower weight.
