Getting my s**t together

ok so here I am on a Monday and ive deceided  to get my self back on track, when I was in weight loss I lost 105 pounds and was so happy and in great shape but since 2011 I wa**** with chronic migraines, dizziness, terrible balance, vision issues and several other issues that made me lose my job of 15 years.  I became less mobile and severally depressed. But im tired, so so tired and mad at myself for ruining my gift of surgery and weight loss, I gained 80 pounds back since June 2011..ugh.  But I have deceided that I need to get ahold of this so as of today I am going to get back on track, I am doing the atkins diet and my husband is doing this with me and that has made me happy because we've had terrible issues but now I feel he is supporting by doing this with me but I am going to start tracking everything that goes in my mouth, im not able to do much exercise but my husband bought me 2 hand weights and some resitance bands and we found some videos for them on youtube..but you will be seeing me on here a lot now..hopefully you wont get tired of seeing my face..lol..have a great day everyone

Okay, I'm with you. I started out at 283, and got down to 155 (for about a minute!). Over the past couple of years I've put on weight, and this morning I weighed 204. I was wearing Mediums, and now none of my clothes fit anymore. I had to buy size 18s at the thrift store yesterday. So today I join you in the quest to get back in shape. Good luck to both of us!

Hi !  Zestyrelic here, my name says it all :-)  I've gained about 20 # and it's killing my back and that's really hurting my ambulation, the gain has to stop or I will be in a wheel chair soon...I have to kill the carb and sugar monsters quick !  I'm using MFP, do good with getting my water in and am always under calorie wise even with bad choices.  I know what I'm supposed to do, just slowly fell off the wagon and the wagon has run over me !!!  This is a great place to vent when we need to and get encouragement when we need to...We CAN do this together !!!   Marla-AKA-Zestyrelic

thank you so much for your reply..i truly believe we can do this together..wishing you luck

Welcome to the group!!! 

We can do it. I need to lose 10 lbs in next 2 months.. and then an additional 15 lbs.. doc orders. 

I do make mostly good food choices but I like my wine too much when I have my wine - i can and do eat more..and not always best choices. 

my problem is that awful carb and sugar monster had got a really tight grip on me but I am determined to beat it..good luck Hala
