I'm also new here and a lot older than you (I have a grandchild). However, I fully understand being on many diets and not having them work.
I think though you are being really hard on yourself. You're going to school and have a young family that is tough and time consuming, I know I did that myself when I was younger and went to law school part time. You need to be proud of all that you are doing. I also understand fully you're not getting to Curves. When you're heavy you tire easily, I know I do. I know I feel better when I exercise, but it sometimes would take a bulldozer to get me there.
Keep trying, because exercise can make all the difference in this goal. I too need to keep trying I did not make the gym this weekend. It's nice we have a place to try together.
Hello Barkley and welcome to the board. I see a nutritionist once a week and it really made a big difference. Great for accountability too.
Please post often and tell us about your progress.

Good luck with the doctor, I hope he is helpful.
