Saying Hello

Good Morning Ladies,


Just wanted to say hello. I'm starting back over this morning. Ok let me start from the beginning. Back in 2002 i weighed 220 pounds and for 5'2 that's a lot of me. Though diet and walking and the running i lost down to 120. In the last year i have put back on 15 of those pounds. As of this morning i weigh 135.


Working out is not my problem. I love that...i run between 35-45 miles a week and lift weights three days. I just love to eat. Sweets are my biggest downfall. So as of today i'm going back on Fitday...logging all my meals and drinking atleast 100ozs of water.


Thanks for listening :)

Hi Rose,


I feel bad for your sister because i know what she is going though. It's very hard to commit to change when nobody is in your corner. My X would bring home food he knew i loved to try and make me cheat..it only made me stronger..i'm the kind of person that if you tell me i can't do something i'm going to prove you wrong..You just keep being there for her and let her know how much you love her..that will make all the difference in the world..

Emotional eating..that's me...that and i eat when i'm bored..i have my good days and my bad days..


Sometimes i think keeping it off is harder than losing it in the first place.
