I am 46 years old. I have been struggling with my weight since I was 13 years old.First it was only 15 lbs then 25 then 45, now at 80 lbs overweight. I have no energy. Two years ago I lost 30lbs on "you on a diet". It took a long time and then I hit a plateau and thought . "Well if watching everything i eat only gets me here I might as well just eat whatever". I regained it all and I am back to my all time high weight. To be honest I get very scared when i get feeling too good. Like something bad will happen if I get too happy. I see myself as big no matter what i weight. So I think i need help and support in this journey.
We are making a family trip to Tennessee in June so i need to get in shape to keep up with hubby and my kids ( they are 24,22 and 10 ) and my 3 year old grandson. I guess i should also mention my 70 year old mother who will smoke me on the hikes if I don't whip myself into shape.
This was my profile bio. I will be updating and changing my bio a little. but I wanted to keep it so i saved it to my Journal.

Two of the most important things in weight loss are patience and persistence. You have to look at it as a journey and not worry about how long it takes to get there. You want a plan that you can live with the rest of your life (because if you go back to eating the way you used, you will gain it all back). Take it one day at a time and don't give up. Good luck!

I am there with you - I self-destruct when I get too close to my goal. Why is it? I always thought that it was because those last 10 or so were so difficult, and I was so close, and I have done so well, I will take a break. And then I don't return. But maybe it is something else. Now I am also worried about health (before, I admit it, it was about looks). I do not want to end up with diabetes, or cancer, or heart disease. And if I can modify my behavior on a consistent basis, I will do it. So will you.
