Welcome Daystar....leave your shame at the desk....all of us here know all about it. We'd all love the weight to magically disappear...the sooner the better. Many have written reminding us of the tortoise and the hare. Making changes that you can live with will be what gets you to the end. If it takes you longer than someone else who really cares in the end.

I haven't yet experienced problems but I know coming here will help keep me motivated when I do. I'm looking forward to pleasures I haven't enjoyed for several years and leaving the ugliness behind.

You are doing so wonderful. Perhaps you could weigh in monthly instead of weekly. 15lbs in a month is FANTASTIC!!!! I hope you are soon feeling more positive about your progress. Look forward to getting to know you better.
