Here I Go Again!

[brussell79]

Hello Everyone!!

I know I am not exactly new here, but it's been long enough that it sure seems that way, and I was never very active on the board. I think that is where I went wrong the first (50) times. Anyway, I had my 10th anniversary in August, and I'll be 30 in June. I guess I'm starting to see so many milestones in life pass that I thought would never get here, and I'm tired of sitting on the sidelines through it all. I'm a pretty keep to myself kind of person, so reaching out to other people is hard for me, but I know I need someone there to pick me up when I fall, and kick my butt when I need it!! So, here goes.

Hi Brandy, welcome back to !

Congrats on your anniversary! 10 years...you're so young !

Reach out when you need to. There may be days that you just want to come and read rather than post ~ that's ok. Just keep coming back!

Good luck to you...

Hi Brandy,

Welcome back, it's great to have you here!

I know you can do this!!!! Come here lots and read as many posts as you can....AND post, let us know how you're doing. I know what you mean about having a difficult time reaching out for help...but you know what? We're all in this together! You're worth it and I know in a very short period of time, if you keep doing EXACTLY what you're suppose to with this way of eating, you're going to be feeling fabulous and seeing a difference in just a matter of time.

I'm looking forward to reading your posts and hearing about how things are going for you!

Hiya Brandy
I just wanted to say that your message hit home with me on many levels.. not to mention that I'm at the same current weight as you and I would LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV to get to 150 (although mini goaling 160...)
Good luck and hopefully we can do this all together.

Thanks everyone. It's always nice to know you're not alone! Today is my official start day. I've had a horrible case of bronchitis and I just finished up my medicine yesterday.
