It's been 4 yrs. since I was serious about loseing weight. In one yr. I went from 355 to 232...now, I am back to 283. Gaining 45lbs. in the last 8 months..funny I got married 6 months ago. Go figure. I really want to get back into a routine of exercising and eating right. It wasn't hard to stick with it before but I am having one heck of a time starting again. I always feel so much better when I eat low carb. So, after 45 lbs. a new husband who more than likely wonders what happened..and great clothes I am determined not to throw away. Plus, the fact I am making myself not buy anything new..I am once again working on eating right...but just incase that weakness for Ben & Jerry's sinks in, I felt like it would be a great idea to join a forum that is willing to share information and support..thanks,Tonya
