Trying again

[cathymum]

Hi I found this by accident and am hoping it will be a place where I can get some inspiration from other people who know what they should do but find it hard to stick to good intentions to lose weight but are actually getting there.

I'm with you, know exactly what needs doing, but my willpower is dreadful. I started yesterday and am hoping for moral support on here!

I'm about to get weighed and join the Tuesday weigh in group on here to record my starting point. Fingers crossed this time for us both!

Thank you I know I need to get on the scales but have been making excuses not to do it. I know that I have a lot to lose, I think I will make myself do it in the morning. Hope you get on well x

Welcome. Many of us found this forum by accident but I for one have never regretted a second of my time here. I get support, encouragement and consolation when needed. In addition I have made virtual friends whom I may possibly never meet but who add that personal element and to whom I feel so close. Happy to have you join us.

Thank you for your lovely positive message, I feel good about making it work for me this time, this community seems to be a great place to be when having a bad day.

[ChoosingLife in reply to cathymum]

Yes it really does. For me the learning I have to do is to get in here when the going gets tough. I've been slipping my resolve at weekends but I tend to stay away and come back on Monday which is my weigh in. I probably need to come on here sooner and have the help I need to get back on track!
