Gained weight and lost weight. Feeling good about losing, but the old enemy of defeat is creeping in. "So what, you've been here before. You'll just fail again."
Thanks to the suggestions of my supporters, I fight the thoughts. This is first day of the rest of my life. I have good reason to believe I will be successful.
Four years ago, I weighed 340 lbs. I now weight 260. That's 80 lbs!!!! Yes it took a while, but it has been a downward trend in spite of the ups and downs. (Sometimes my ups were greater than my downs.)
I am in a much better place, and the battle goes on. My goal weight is another 100 lbs, but it is doable. Getting to 160 is still not skinny for me, but do I really want skinny or at a healthy weight? A healthy weight!
I liked the suggestion to write down the things about thin people. I think that will help me dispel the sabotaging (sp?)
I enjoyed reading all the comments and suggestions, as well as the encouraging words you all have written. It means a lot. I wish I could be as encouraging to you as you are to me.

Well guess what? you just encouraged me! I've never posted before but someone finally said something that inspired me and gave me hope. You! I'm coming back after six months and I'm more than a little mad at myself. I gave up (again) and regained what I lost (+5 )for the upteenth time! Giving up is not an option. We get back up on our horses and ride! Thank you 😂

It is a good thing you are not giving up. I am happy to know that something said inspired you to continue your journey. It IS a journey, but a never ending one.
Unfortunately, people like me were not born with a built in high metabolism, so I am unable to eat like it. I'm one of those people who is "allergic" to bad food (it makes me fat and unhealthy). So I must avoid those things.
I would love to eat any and everything and it not affect me, but it does, so... Compare to others who are allergic to shell fish, or dairy products or anything else. They avoid those items. So I have "allergies" to unhealthy foods.
That's what I'm going with this week. LOL
