In the wilderness Posted by Yvonne on 2/6/2020, 5:04 pm Hi, folks: I was feeling SO depressed. No one seemed to be on "the Support Board" and I felt as if I had lost my family. I also was feeling as if I were in a wilderness of food, food, food and no way to get out. It's been so hard for me lately because I "look" better but I don't "feel" better. I am at a crossroads and feel like a fraud. The compliments are pouring in and then I go and have some cake or cookies. I'm feeling my "back fat" returning which sends me into a state of despondency. Anyway, when I saw Ann's post with PamT's reply, I was joyful and lifted out of the darkness that I wasn't doing this alone. Thanks for posting!!

Re: In the wilderness Posted by Ann on 2/6/2020, 11:55 pm, in reply to "In the wilderness" Get back on the trail! You are not alone. The posts keep me going. What an achievement.You will lose the rest. Did you listen to the song Invincible? There is a line “they knock me down I get up again.” SSing because of you and this board.My my goal is to lose 100 pounds by August. Taking a trip to Scotland and do not want to carry a lot of weight around. Stay strong. Back away from the goodies!

Thank you, Ann Posted by Yvonne on 2/7/2020, 12:50 am, in reply to "Re: In the wilderness" Today was my first successful day after so many setbacks. I did listen to the song "Invincible". Only it's not "they" who knock me down, it's ME who knocks myself down. But thanks to your posting, I'm back up again and have my goal in mind. Scotland, eh?!! The trip sounds divine. You definitely have the time to get to where you need to be. I lost 65 pounds in 5-6 months and you can lose your entire 100 by August, if you stick to it like I did. PamT lost 100 pounds in 6 months and so can you!! Thank you SO much for replying so quickly. It really made my day. Let's KEEP GOING!!!
