This is my first time here. I feel defeated with my weight right now, and I give in so easily to temptations. I have had a gym membership in the past and I would go sometime, but not regularly. I have a mini-stairstepper....but I have not used it in a long while. I think I need some support to get myself motivated/encouraged. I think i am weighing about 308 lbs right now. I do not weigh every day because i do not want to scare myself too badly. lol Whatever I do exercise wise, I know i need to start out slow because I will get way out of breath. I know I am not in shape right now. My doctor has been concerned I may develop diabetes. I do not want to go there. Maybe this would be a good place for me to journal some and get my focus oriented in the right direction?

It definitely helps to journal about these things. Try to focus on making small changes in your life towards a more healthy lifestyle...write them all down in your journal here so we can all support you :) Don't think of changing your eating habits and exercise as "DIETING" think of them as a different way of life. A healthier, happier way!

Sounds like you've got the mindspace to do it! Start small, just take some walks around the place, nature is so beautiful and people are so interesting to watch. Good luck :)

He is one of the best movement disorder secialists in the midwest. I know he is extremely busy on the lecture circuit now and in fact not taking new patients there is a huge waiting list for him. BUT.... I feel like my visits are not what they use to be. He...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
