Hello,
So I still consider myself a lurker and I'm definitely not a reg on GIS. I think I'm just so overwhelmed and anxious when it comes to weight loss. Reading the posts helps for motivation. I don't know why but getting back on the workout bandwagon is getting so dang hard this time around.
A little about me; I'm a SoCal girl and I never had weight issues until maybe 5 years ago. All of a sudden, losing weight was just not easy anymore and I fell into the busy work/home lifestyle so I had "no time" to workout. 2 years ago; I lost 56 lbs and gained back most of it despite keeping the same eating pattern and working out OCCASSIONALLY. Well it turns out I have some issues that will make my weight loss journey a little bit harder but I have to do this again. I keep telling myself "you did it once, you can do it again" but I just can't find the patience this time. I wish I had a fairy Godmother to come and wave her wand at me....
Anyway, enough of the pitty party. I just wanted to introduce myself and let you all know, I will be relying on this board to lose 20+ lbs by Sept. (anniversary trip). I have an acct on MFP but I think I haven't logged on in like a month.
Congratulations to all posters that have lost weight.
I hope to join the club soon.
Michelle
