I never heard of this site before a friend sent me the link. I have been on the merry go round for a few years. Lose alittle, gain it back. Like most of us, I know how to lose. I hear people say all the time. Diets don't work. Diets DO work IF we stay on them long enough to get results. I can be 100% for weeks. Then if I splurge I can turn a day off track into weeks of sabatoge. Knowing of course I am doing so. My famous lie to myself is, I will "Start Tomorrow". We all have the power to change. Attitude is the key. We choose what we eat. We know all the excuses by heart why we cave. When we have control, food is no longer a vice. I have a Mud Run in June. This will be my 5th year. It is an obstacle course on a Marine base. There is always an event we want to be in shape for, a wedding, swimsuit for summer, ect...The thing is everyday is an event. I will be my thin self again. I like meeting new people who are also outgoing and believe they can succeed!
