Hey there! I'm finally back and am very happy to see this thread! Motivation is something i need. I'm fairly consistent with working out these days but not so consistent with my attitude. Am hoping i'll find the support I need here.

Just to fill in a little about me. I weight 290 two years ago. Lost 100 pounds in ten months. It was hard work grueling. I changed my diet and started walking five minutes at a time and lifting weights ( i was totally out of shape, huffing and puffing up the stairs.) Then i added more time, more reps and started cutting out food. It worked. Last year i put some pounds back on- bad attitude and stopped walking. I've been working out for three months and finally broke 200. When i think about how hard the past three months have been, harder than at any other time losing weight i wonder how i broke that promise to myself and let the weight come back on. I really need this thread- thanks wideguy.

I just joined. I was hoping to be

inspired and I am. I never say my weight out loud...

too embarrassing. I can't tell you how it makes me feel to see others

here, putting themselves out there, loud and strong, it gives me

strength. I just turned 46 and spent last year dieting, walking and

weightlifting and lost 100 pounds. I never thought i'd put the

weight back on but here I am 20 pounds heavier. I need a place of

encouragement. I don't know how I expected my weight loss to effect

my life but I guess I was expecting more... been a little down in the

dumps about that. I'm glad you guys are here and look forward to

support from people who understand.
