    Back after success for more success

    Hello-
    I'm back after keeping most of weight I'd lost off for a few years now. Have changed my diet and exercise habits long term.
    As I would like to get in even better shape, my new goal is 35 lbs. off by year end, down to 198, a realistic final maintenance weight.
    Induction starts today along with increased jogging and back into the gym.
    Thanks everyone for a great bulletin board!

          Thank you ladies. It's good to be back in touch.
          First day of induction went well - no problem, ate well and did a few miles jogging and walking. Feel great. Early to bed. With the change in weather, joined a gym and will get over there in the morning. Really looking forward to the next several weeks and beyond.

            GOAL ONE 228             (take 2)
            GOAL TWO 213 (personal goal)

             It's not about the results. Its about the process.

              Glad you had a good day.

              So as you may know having hung around here it is hard to come back. Not because you cannot lose but psychologially most people come back with a different mindset - some of that enthusiasm from round one is gone and therefor also some of the ability to stick with it. A second timer needs to make sure the mindset is there.
              Another issue is that a certain laxness may have crept in. After a while you may have found that you could lose and eat XXX so you start induction eating XXX even though it is a rung 9 product and induction will not click in as it should and you get discouraged.

              So make sure you are in control.
              Anyways just my late night musings. See you tomorrow.
