Don't give up!!! You all sound so hopeless. You can do it!!!! I lost 100lbs and gained it all back and I am starting all over again. This time I am going to lose it ALL and keep it off. I started over 3 weeks ago and have lost 24lbs. I was 348 and now I am 324 and I want to break the 300 by Christmas and I am going to do it!!!! You can too.!!! Set little goals for yourself. My goal this week is to step up exercise a notch (I do stretches and lift weights) I am going to try and walk to the store instead of taking my car this week. It's not very far, just about half a small block but I have troubles with my breathing and I am afraid I won't be able to get back home so I will ask my neighbor to go with me the first couple of times. I have a treadmill but I can't get on it because I m too heavy. I sure could use your support in order to do this and I will be here for you all too.

Kudos Jill to the 5lb loss!!! that is soooo great. thanks Alfa for the encouraging words. Just what I need to make my day.

I am feeling a little ill today. I have a cold and the chills and am tired. I don't get sick very often but when I do I take echinacea and Buckleys cough medicine and I get better fast although the buckleys tastes awful.......lol.

Keep up the good work, girls and I will talk to you all later.

Hi Mel .........welcome to this board. I don't know where everyone is. I just posted here yesterday for the first time myself and as of yet have received no replies to my message. I hope they come back. Don't give up on yourself. just remember........YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!!!! I weigh 324 now  and when I started for the umpteenth time I was 348. I am 5' 3in. This time I swear I am going to lose it all and keep it off. I don't know how old you are but I am also on the "OH Middle Age plus board and all the gals are great and very supportive. There are a few other boards too that you might like to try.

Good Luck and maybe I'll see you back here. I sure hope so.

Kathy
