welcome to the board =) I don't remember the username so you may have been on here before my time. You can be successful, just remember it takes awhile,that's what gets me at times.

Welcome back! Yes, you can be successful at this. I've learned that it really takes patience (it's taken me 5 months to lose 25 pounds, with a long ways to go still). The weight will come off slowly, but if you keep at it and be patient, you will see the results. The other thing that you need to do is get rid of the negative thoughts (the ones where you're doubting your ability to succeed) and replace them with positive ones( I WILL succeed, regardless of how long it takes). I know it's easier said than done, but I really believe that the negative thoughts can hinder our weight loss efforts. I'm glad you decided to come back again, and I hope you stick around this time :-)

>>Will I ever be successful?<< If you want to be, sure! Just start somewhere, and keep it up, and in due time you'll probably get there!! Good luck.
