Oh how I hate to admit when I'm wrong, or when I've done wrong! Like so many times before, I’ve fallen completely off the wagon I will not type out a list of excuses as that would be a waste of my time and yours as well. I’ll just say that I’ve enjoyed myself immensely these last few months and apparently ate everything in sight and did not move a muscle while doing it. Really, I should have carpel tunnel in my elbow from raising the spoon to my mouth so frequently. Anywho, all the weight I once lost has found me again..and brought friends with it. I obviously need to be held accountable to someone. My husband is absolutely no help!! He told me yesterday that he wouldn’t care if my a@@ was knocking the lamps off of the tables, he’d still love me..Sweet, absolutely! Helpful, not so much!!
So, I shall post my doings, good or bad, here everyday in hopes that someone will read them and encourage me on the good days, and call me out on the bad!! Thanks ahead of time Chickies!!
P.S.
It was very hard to change my ticker and remove my cheerleaders from my signature, but I will be honest about my weight this time, even if it kills me
Welcome back! No matter what happened, as unfortunate as it is, the important part is you have the motivation and dedication to come back here and start over. Be proud of yourself. And your hubby most definitely is a sweetheart. Mine says the same thing all the time. It doesn't help
As for your signature, don't worry, before you know it, you'll be right back there with all the cheerleaders and more!! Good luck!! xoxo
Right there with ya. I started over yet again last week… from a new high weight no less. But hey, I am already down 2 or 3 pounds, and you have to start somewhere. Let's do this!!
Welcome back!!!
I have been on and off the same darn wagon way too many times to count, I feel your pain!! But you're here now, it's a new day and you can do it!!
Your hubby sounds wonderful, mine says the same, still not helpful! LOL But luckily so supportive through this right now, thank goodness!
One thing I've come to realize about posting here and visiting here every day, is that posting to other people is almost like talking to myself. Like a friend giving me advice every day!! Instead of me being on my own with all of my self-doubt and negative smack talk to myself (A favorite past time), I am being encouraged knowing talking to others about this is the same as positive talk to myself. Hope that made sense!
Anyway, back on that wagon and hold on for dear life!
I feel ya girl... Back at it as of yesterday. This time I have to make it work. I'm not happy with myself or my body and I deserve to be... We all do! Welcome back! Ever need to talk I'm here
Welcome back, RollTideRoll! Good for you for knowing what you need to do to get back on track. Like you, I also have a hubby that doesn't mind my weight. In fact, he actually, really, and truly likes fleshy women. You're correct, it is not helpful at all. It's great that he loves me as I am but I don't like me as I am. Heck, I don't even have a photo of me on my Facebook, not counting some old photos from when I was a child.
I want to be more comfortable with myself, leaner, healthier and I'm gonna do it for me.
I'm glad you found your way back and kudos to you for having the guts to reset your tracker.
and Welcome Back to Melfuchsia, cornellchick, and aasshhlleeyy!

I'm in the same boat RollTide! Disheartening to realizing my weight is exactly where it was a year ago, but reality is what it is and I clambered back into the boat a week ago -- tomorrow is my first weigh-in. I'm doing pretty well with the food component, my exercise is still qualifying for the "fits and starts" department, but I keep telling myself Baby Steps, Baby Steps, and not allowing myself to use my perceived failures as a reason to quit.
I don't know if this helps, but I am in the exact same situation as you are. I lost 35 pounds 5 years ago and then life intervened and have not only gained those 35 back but have added on 30. I've also been back on a healthy eating plan (doing it through calorie counting this time rather than low carbing, as I did last time) for a little over a week.
Don't beat yourself up! I've accepted that my weight gain came because of me and no one else (nobody forced me to binge on junk food all weekend, every weekend!) and it's only me that can bring it back down and also get my health back.
These boards have been a major support, so it's great that you're back!
i too am right there with ya!! lost 70 pounds 3 yrs ago and am back where i started
BUT, i am so glad i started coming back here---it is so supportive to know that other people make the same mistakes i do!!
GOOD LUCK rolltide and keep with it!!
Thanks so much girls..This is why I adore this site!!! I wish you all had the body you want, but I have to say it is nice to have company, haha!!
Here's what I ate yesterday: 1,590
Breakfast: 390
2 eggs
grits
toast
Dinner: 400
Carrots and dip
Apple and p-nut butter
Supper: 800 (Took 2 turkey sandwiches to fill me up, ugh!!)
Turkey Sandwich with mayo and mustard
Chips
Also drank most of my water yesterday, WOOHOOO!!
Walked yesterday morning for 30 minutes, and got a gigantic blister on my heel!! Just my luck!! Couldn't walk this morning, think I may do Just Dance with the kiddos when I get home this evening!!
So far my breakfast and dinner look the same today as yesterday. I'm a creature of habit when it comes to food. Too bad I don't stay with something good for me all the time
It's Me...Again!
