Hey Tracy and Welcome Back!

At least you know you can lose it. What diet plan do you plan to follow?

Welcome back Tracey! Keet at it and you're sure to get there.

We've all done the on again off again thing.

My plan is low fat.... low calories and watch the crabs..
Water Water Water
I don't plan to weigh a lot. Every time I weigh I find myself ruled by the scales.. If I lose I am on a high if I have not lost I get very discouraged. Weight lose is very hard for me now. I have messed my body up.. When I lost that 120 lbs you name it I did it to get the weight off. Well now I have to almost starve to lose a lb
I am also going to keep a food journal so I will watch more closely what I put in my mouth. I am going to get moving also..
Any advice for me ? What has been working for yall?
Yes I am from Alabama we use the word YALL! HAHA
Thanks

Welcome back, Tracey (: Just remember: baby steps, water, and exercise even if it's just a 10 minute walk a day!

Currently I am doing the low carb thing. See Carb dieting for Dummies much more understandable. (is that a word)

I am not doing too well on the water....I am trying harder. We ran out of water this weekend. DH worked all weekend long and the DS didn't offer to go get any. We live in the country and can't drink our well water because it smells like rotten eggs. uck!

In any case with all the cancer we have around here (in the air) I don't trust the water either! So we go get bottled water.

I think once I bring up my exercise level and water intake I will be okay.
