Yeah,

I'm of the mindset that there are some things in life you need to act on

before you FEEL like acting on them (for me it's cleaning particularly). so

I use the flylady.net approach and set my timer for 5 min and do SOMETHING.

I figure weight loss is a little that way too. you've been successful before

so you KNOW you can do it, maybe you need to just re prep your house for

success and drink a big ole glass of water and figure out how you can change

ONE thing today from yesterday. it might be slower this time but giving up

won't take you anywhere good.

Sorry it's such a struggle :-(

discouraged

I'm a dropout, and I hate the direction I have taken. While I'm still 10 lbs

below my ATH

(all-time high), I am also 20 lbs above my goal. I tried going back to

meetings but found I

really wasn't doing the work, so I quit. Recent photos (rear view, of all

things) from a trip I

took with my granddaughter have shocked me, but I don't know why I still

can't get

motivated. I think that the unpleasant direction a body takes with age is

playing into it

(meaning that even with weight loss, I'll never be young and firm

again....). If anyone has

any suggestions, I'm open. I know I have to " just do it " , but I keep

postponing.....
