Hi there! I will tell you that since I have really committed myself to using this site, that I have found an awesome support system thus far. You shouldn't beat yourself up... sometimes, we come to the realization that we need someone to tell us we can do it, and help us believe in ourselves. Weightloss is hard... I think we all know that, but ! Take it one day at a time and know that not only is God with you, (remember, 'I can do all things through Christ, who gives me strength,' *forgive me, I don't have my bible with me atm, and am having a can't remember moment). But know that you have us as well to cheer you on.

Blessings,
Heather.

Don't beat yourself up, you can do it and there is totally a ton of support here. Just take it one day at a time.

I have finally came to the understanding, after beating myself up a few times, that it takes support from people who truly understand where you are coming from to accomplish the goal of losing weight and getting healthy. I am hoping to get that from SparkPeople. I am not the most outgoing type of person and not always up front about needing help. Maybe doing it in this format will help me make the changes I have been hoping for! Good Luck to everyone on your journeys and God Bless!
