Hello.... I weighed myself this morning and gained all the weight back and plus more..Now am at 450 Lbs and back to square one on my efforts.I feel so alone and do not have real life weight loss buddies to share my journey and have come to conclusions on not posting on here anymore...
I will be missing in action on this site, I will lurk from time to time and come back when am really in a losing mode on weighing in weekly or monthly.
I knew daily weigh ins is not for me...I had been eating way to much fruits and also overate on cakes when am bored..The story of my life!!
Saturday will turned 46 yrs old...and need to make a drastic change and seek else where offline for face 2 face weight loss support. I have a fitness center near me and been on my mindset to join..So I might join this weekend to find real life buddies and friends.
I want to thank everyone for the kind support you all given me...but online support that I struggle for many years and no such luck. I will ditched the interent...and it was a pleasant experience on hearing so many folks struggles the same issues...I need to move on and find real friendship.
Instead on binging on cakes and candies..I need to get out more and seek face 2 face support on my obesity struggles. I do not have any other weight places ,just fitness and that is my passion.
I had joined DS site in 2010 and now is 2013 and still struggling my obesity life. I am advanced in my Mental state and Now am getting older, need to move on. This site is wonderful and nice people as well.
I wish you all the very best and good health...Take Care everyone...

I'm horrified! I knew my insurance would go up due to getting a new car but I didn't expect it to go up over $2,000. I did have an accident with the snow/ice in the winter. I was just telling my brother that I have had my car since March 2, 2026 and have only spent $75 on an oil change. Now this! I called another insurance company and their quote was over $4,000. I guess I have to pay...

We all have 24 hours in a day. How we spend these hours is important. Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do. Gonna have to work on that.Your turn. Tell me another truth.
Take care of yourself! I hope you find what you are searching for!! *hugs*
Happy Early Birthday!!!
If you feel you're a binge eater, may I suggest Overeaters Anonymous? There are free groups across the country and I am impressed with them. I also like meetup.com to find groups of like-minded people. Also, I am a certified hypnotherapist and have a few free hypnosis recordings you could listen to. Listing it might be a no, no for dailystrength (idk), but my free recordings are at shannagwilliam.com - :) These were done for a weight loss retreat and many people struggled with these three issues. Anyway, good luck!! And, yes, happy early birthday!
Have you tried other online sites for weight loss like fitnesspal or sparkpeople? Fitnesspal really offers a lot of different people and support. DS is really great but isnt always as active as other places...
There are many people whom would love buddies I am always looking for a buddy myself....well take care and let us know how you are!
You know what to do, you have the motivation, so just stick to a plan and reach your goal. No, it's not easy but if you want your life to change then you're the only one who can make it happen. You're the only one who can stop this cycle.
Celebrate your birthday this year by joining some clubs or church groups, making new friends that you can spend real time with out of your house, and find a weight loss group. Most clinics offer free group support. You have the resources... all you need to do is commit yourself to them and you will find true success.
Happy birthday and make your wishes come true this year. The power to change is in your hands.
Hugs and prayers.
U can't leave. I don't want you too. I look forward to your post n replys.
I understand where u would have faith in your scale but I think that your scale is off.
I had use of 1 just like yours on a daily bases. Advently, I knew that it was off. I have a cheap scale. it shows that I'm in range. example 1 dy I'll be 5 lbs less than dy befor but following dy I could be 8 lbs more :I
I went throught a lot of scales before I found 1 that shows weigh as close as possible to scale at my Dr offc..
smetimes currect scale w sorta of get stuck, as in it will start out on zero but after I weigh myself n step off scale. the needle on start mark on scale shows starting mark as 5 to 10 lbs.
Please remember:
protein
fiber
water
move
sleep
cal's in cal's out ratio
keep your bowls reg. Fiber n water should do that. Bran cereal/prune juice/beans works to.
white beans/white bean extrack is carb blocker.
Pasta n rice, cook drain n rinse w hot water n drain.
Only weigh in the 1st thing in morning. I suggest that most do so once a wk or bi - wkly or mthly.
I/we will deeply miss you. From time to time let us know how your doing XXX's
