Here we go again…hopefully…

ok this is my first blog ever that I’m apparantly writing from my residence under a rock. how do i still not know how to use these things???  Anyways. I’m starting up for the kajillionth time on my weight loss efforts — exceptionally difficult this time because two years ago I reached my goal.  Exceeded it even…but now a nearly everlasting case of mono and a comfy relationship later and I’m a chubs again.  I was working out 7 times a week, eating perfectly, I felt and looked great — and now I’m a couch potato again. Me and Oprah.  So what happened?  I could pretend it was all circumstance, but in reality I got complacent and lazy. I thought I had beat the weight struggle and that strict diet and exercise no longer applied to me because I was a skinny person.  Wow, was I wrong.  So i start again down this long, bumpy road towards good health, struggling to find the motivation to put my best foot forward.  If you all have any advice on starting  again, i’d love to hear from you!

    Welcome to BuddySlim! I would suggest finding a challenge group in the forums that you are interested in. I am really loving Survivor 4 right now and finding it very helpful.

    I started back too and like you lost a lot of weight and gained a few back.

    It can be done; you can rededicate to you again. Good luck!
