VIKING 0424

Hiya fellow august rebirth people well its been two years for me and i would not change a thing started this journey at 361 lbs i no longer take any meds i excise every day eat for fuel not for comfort or depression any longer the head work has been more important to me than anything dont get me wrong i still have my moments of depression and try to move forward with that and learn from those every day most of the time i am helping others and focusing on them and i have relied on there problems and the fixes for them to help keep me busy and not focus on myself which has been a problem for me always put others ahead of my self (the problem solver) well i see a pattern returning with that .so with that said i really need to stay focused on me first then i can help others . today i weigh 186 lbs this morning and have a new out look on life the tool i was given has changed me for the better for me and my future life thanks for giving me a place to not be judged and let out emotions that dont come out of me in person to person conversations i am getting better at letting people in my bubble still not good at it

LOL DONT THINK SO SORRY !!!!!

YOU LOOK AMAZING AS ALWAYS !!!!!!

the pain does subside the gas is horrible walk as much as possible to get it moving it does really help i hope this passes quickly and you are on you way to recovery cheers !!!!!!

those are all real feelings that dont go a way with a walk or exercise the head work with a group or individual counseling has been amazing for me as well as a few support people i reach out to who have been through the same thing along with this board the board brings inspiration and hope for those getting started and answers for those in the beginning and transition and then for the maintenance phase we are all on a road to better heath and happiness for our self (best thing i ever did for ME) only you can choose whats best for you!!!

thank you all for the support !!!!! its not easy it is doable if you try !!

some people dont understand the struggle obease people have depression is a huge part of the process at least it was for me the head work is as important as the exercise and food intake keep you chin up and you have plenty of support here we are all in this together on this site please reach out to the vets we all have alot of experience with the process dont be shy we are here for you and your success cheers !!!!
