[...] few weeks ago I blogged about being at the point where I needed to either give in or start over. And the truth is, I’m *still* at that point. I haven’t given in, not by a long shot, [...]

I’m right there with you sister. I lost 40 lbs from Sept to Feb and that has been it. I’m starting over too and you give me inspiration to make tomorrow DAY 1!

I found your blog on the Healthy You Challenge site. I just wanted to say Hi and don’t give up. We’re all in this together and I’ll be one of your cheerleaders if you need somemore!

I know it is hard. I think what helps me to not give up is to forget about the big picture. Concentrate on the smaller things, the smaller goals…losing 5 lbs or losing 10 lbs. I, no longer think about the grand total. It is too daunting.

As for that 10 lbs, it will come off very quickly. Freshly gained weight is usually the easiest to get off or so I have read.

You’ve made the first step of deciding to get back in the game. You took a small step backward, but are still 65 lbs lighter than when you started. You will get back down in time. Keep up the good fight!

Each time somebody says, ‘Just wait until you reach your goal; then the hard work starts,’ I wince. I’ve still got 21 pounds to go.

You’ve hit one big nail on the head: Whatever you continue to do must be working for you in some respect or your wouldn’t keep doing it, according to Dr. Phil.

All the mental work you’re doing right now will lay a solid foundation for your “new start.” Count me in as a BIG supporter!

We’re so not going to let you quit. I love your fighting spirit! We all have set backs and struggles especially if our bad habit have been life long habbits. But hang in there, you’ve been doing so great and celebrate all the small victories because those add up to big things.

I haven’t walked as much since the pedometer challenge either so I decided to throw my hat into the challenge ring and will be doing a Summer Blog Party pedometer challenge the month of July. Check it out, it’s something you can “train” for now and might give you a little motivation in the walking department…Cuz sister you kicked some booty in FB’s challenge.

You glossed over a HUGE NSV…in your blog you said that it was time to either give up or restart. Well guess what. You restarted. That all by itself is a giant step in the right direction. I don’t know about you but I have had moments before when the time came to quit or restart and let me tell you it was a hell of a lot easier to quit. Today you are an inspiration to everyone at a crossroads. By restarting you are AMAZING and SUPER AWESOME in my eyes. YOU GO GIRL!

OK, first (((HUGS))) I know exactly how you feel, EXACTLY!! I am kinda in the same spot only I have only lost 10 pounds. I was doing great and then slowly but surely slipped back into some of my old habits. You have done it by losing 75 pounds, this shows that you CAN do it!! I think its always a struggle, food is our addiction. I think it will get easier, but will always be something difficult for us!! You have a great plan!! have a great day!!
