  • Is it too late to join in?

    Well, I need to be on the 100+ and the 2nd time around board but I have read on this board for quite some time and feel this is the spot for me.

    Two years ago I lost 80 pounds and kept it off for only 6 months and then it slowly crept back.....all of it.

    I did extended induction (with alot of success) but never mastered the rungs and then when I was 'done'......went back to eating what got me in the mess to begin with.

    I am starting a walking program at work on Monday so that should help with the exercise. If I can just stay focused. I (like many here) am a working mom with two children and put EVERYTHING that needs to be done before me. Went to the doctor 3 weeks ago - got on the scale and decided........gotta get a handle on it.

    I would love to be with a buddy or a group to be accountable.
    Thanks,
    Pam

      Hey Pam and welcome back! There are some awesome people in this group and they'll probably hug you and work you over with a stick at the same time..lol. It is good to have people who know you...know where you are and what progress you're making...know your pitfalls and insecurities and still manage to give you the support, comfort and praise that you need...as well as the occasional butt whooping..lol.

      Pull up a chair and make yourself at home.

          welcome back.

          Hope you can work the rungs of OWL this time to allow you to eat foods that you can eat for the rest of your life so you can maintain that smaller morphed body you are working hard to get.
