Hi all! I think I've joined message boards for every interest out there EXCEPT weight loss. But...about 3 years ago, I decided to lose 50 lbs, and I took off 60..and I kept it off for a year just by eating smaller portions, more fruits and veggies and exercising regularly and drinking only water. I started a new job though where it's much more difficult to control what I eat...and gained 20 lbs back. I feel so defeated.

I really miss being my svelte self at 170 (I'm 6' tall with a large frame). Any smaller than that and I look a little unhealthy. I know it's crazy, but I've been heavy my whole life and at 26, I feel like my chances for having a body I like again have passed. I just don't know if I have the will to do it again. It didn't seem hard at the time, but now, it seems impossible. I really hope I can find some inspiration here. I look forward to talking with you guys!
