I am struggling - so I'm trying a new strategy. I just created a "weight loss ticker" and I'm going to post once a week, at least, for weight loss notification. I seem to be able to stick to a plan much better when I'm reporting to or competing with someone. I just can't seem to do it strictly for myself.
To top it all off, I have a feeling that I'm going to be watching my DH go "down the tubes" from his lifestyle choices. He's got problems and I'm feeling that it's going to be something serious. You would think that would be my incentive along with watching my mom die from the same choices - both so unwilling to change and get better, but, so far, I can't seem to grab ahold of that.
Wish me luck you wonderful people and anything that you can offer that might possibly implant itself into my head to break my self-sabbotage would be greatly appreciated. I have all of the book knowledge of who I am and, why I'm here on this earth and I have the tools, skills and information to make this work (and I know it does!!!) but I just can't seem to get on board permanently.
I never, in my whole life, thought I would be participating in a board such as this but I've been mostly lurking for several years and I am so in awe of all of you.
