I am still here....I haven't given up

Read Now

I just keep trying, but I am not making in real progress. I have drawn a line in the sand and refuse to gain any more weight. 395 lbs. is it! Still down from where I was years ago 410 lbs. These last few years is the first time in my life I haven't gained back all the weight I have lost...plus some.

Some good news for some of you, Paul Carrozza has restarted the ATX 100 program and you can find him and a lot of the original group on Facebook.

Don't know why I picked today to start blogging again....

Oh well...try to stay healthy and enjoy life.

Hi, Joe,

Don't know why I checked your blog today after all this time...but glad you're still here and at it! I too have put about 30 pounds back on over the past two years, but still doing well and maintaining 90% of the loss. Like you, I'm trying to stay engaged in the process, and that awareness is key.

Also continuing to study this complex issue, and this doctor's site has resonated with me lately: http://www.refusetoregain.com. She talks about the unsustainable ways we try to loose weight and that our expectations for how much we should weigh, how fast we can get there, the extent to which exercise will help with weight loss, and how much of the loss we will be able to maintain in the long run are often unrealistic. As always, I don't agree with everything she says, but a lot of it makes sense.

Miss you guys. Maybe we should start a support group! Just let me know if you and Michelle are interested, and I can host a chat. My regards to the family!

Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
