Hi all, I'm back after a near year long break from this group. I had success last year using calorie counting and the support from this group to lose 20 lbs, but then, as it does, life got in the way and I fell back off the wagon.
I was going to set up a second account using a different name as I was ashamed and embarrassed to come back under this account and admit that I failed after I was so enthusiastic last time, especially as I just stopped posting and felt like I ghosted all of ye. But I think it's ok to admit failings and start again.
I have a health issue that requires me to lose weight. I need to do this. I'm finally out of the mind frame of wanting to lose it because I dislike how my body looks, or because I feel like it's my job to be thin, I want to do it so I can be rid of this health issue, so I'm hoping that motivation will keep me consistent. I also watched an excellent TED talk on procrastination and realised that I was procrastinating this journey long term, and because there's no "deadline" to lose weight, I'm just gonna keep putting it off forever.
I don't think this will be a quick journey, or an easy one, but I'm hoping each day will get a little better than the one before.
