First Blog Ever, First Time on Dietbetter.com, Fresh Start!
I started my weightloss journey at 332 lbs in November 2012. I joined my local TOPS Chapter (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) in January 2013 at 253.75 lbs. By the last weigh in of 2013 I had lost another 50.25 lbs to become the FL State 2nd place weight loss winner in my division. I was ecstatic, because I've never been successful at losing weight.
2014 started off fairly well with me losing close to 15 more lbs. However, I then had an insulin adjustment and gained 11 lbs in one day and 30 in less than a month. After weighing in yesterday at 223.2 I am up just over 35 lbs from my lowest weight.
It's so frustrating and I have days when I just want to throw in the towel and say forget it, but I have a 6 year old son (Sawyer) who needs his mommy. So I am going to pick myself up, dust myself off, move my hiney and try to salvage my formerly successful weight loss efforts. I think having a "prize" will really keep me motivated! I wish everyone great weight loss. I don't mind just getting my own money back, so I hope we all WIN!!
