    You will do great, just remember.. It may not happen quick, but if you stick with it you will succeed! You may have a slip up, BUT DON"T GIVE UP, you are stronger than you think! Keep your head up and you won't lose. I believe in you ! ! emoticon

    I completely understand how you feel. I joined here a week ago today...I'm going to give it my best effort, but the underlying fear of failing [again] is still there. All I can offer you right now is: You're not alone!!

    You have made a bold, brave , move to join all of us that started just one day and add another.. i just joined yesterday and already enjoying getting encouragement, and emails from others. I too sabatoge my self and am ready to enjoy my tiniest of accomplishments.. today i did the food tracker and with the knowledge that i would be using the Sparke tracker I did really good.. I like reading other spark friends successs and of their failures which makes you and I feel good that we want this for us too.. Dont be afraid sister!! you can join hands with us all and be our inspiration too!! emoticon

    I hope you are feeling more confident now that it's a few days later. I added you as a friend. I would love to go through this journey as friends with you. I have 200 lbs to go. I've lost 25 so far. Sparkpeople has so many ways to find support for whatever you are facing. It has been so nice to make friends here.

    I am the same way. I have a real problem of putting everyone before myself, so when it comes to taking care of me its usually not even made it to the stove to be put on the back burner. emoticon

    You can do this! Baby6 steps, one day at a time and before long it will feel more natural :-) You have all the support you need-all you have to do is ask emoticon

    You can do it--there is tons of support here!! Look for friends on Sparkteams. (find things you're intersted in by searching for Sparkteams)
I added you as a friend!!

    Dont be scared! we all go thru that at some point. Work one day at a time, taking small steps, as few or as many as YOU wish. If you need help, just ask, and I'm sure anyone will help if they can. Please call on me if you like and leave a comment on my spark page and I'll help if I can. I'll add you as a friend, if thats ok. emoticon Jane emoticon

    Don't worry. You can do it and you do have support. Just holler HELP when you need us.

    You have so much support here, so many friends you haven't met yet. Everyone has been where you are and can help! emoticon

    You will do fine, this is something new and you don't know what to expect. Just put one foot in front of the other, and repeat. Brie
