Default Trying to lose 30 pounds need motivation

Hi! My name is Sara. I was about 30 pounds lighter abuot 6-7 years ago. In the mean time life happened and I have gained quite a bit of weight. I've been trying to lose it for a while now and I will work out every once in a while, but haven't really had too much time to do it lately and I am not accountable to anyone so that doesn't help...

Thanks!

Sara

Hi Sara welcome to 3FC =)

If you want to be held accountable, you might want to consider joining a challenge or a chat area around the boards and checking in daily or every couple days.

Best of luck on your journey~

Hey Sara....

I read your blog... have you tried Insanity?? It is definitely extreme!!

I started a blog too (melissasinsanitychallenge.blogspot.com)!! I actually started insanity and then realized the importance of a balanced diet. 2 weeks into the program I started over and added diet... but not a diet a life style change. I'm done with all the yo yo drama... it is too frustrating to perpetually go up and down... Started the blog for accountability!

Anyway GL in your journey!

Hi Sara... I'm posting here for the first time, and I just joined yesterday. I, too, will have a goal to lose 30 lb's. I have actually been a yoyo dieter most of my live, losing and then gaining the same 20 lb's over and over (and the 10 lb's extra I was never really able to lose). I am hoping to also find support here, as I really need it. I am extremely unhappy with my weight and I don't fit my clothes anymore. I know the root of my food addiction... I eat when I'm emotionally unhappy, and I demand a lot of myself. I am at a job that I don't really like much, and have found myself keeping to myself and eathing to make me feel content. I'm hoping we can support each other (all of us) here. Good luck with your goal.
