Wearing My Weight as Armor -- My Journey to Healing

Hi, Tamara. 2020 is a crap show for everyone I think. Kudos to you for dropping 12 lbs. I'm glad you're now in a place of your own. New start. Try to have a glass of water every hour. Set a Fitbit alarm to go off 8 times a day. You will get to the stage where the more you drink the more you want to drink, but in the meantime just do it. I find I drink more water if I pour it into a glass. Welcome back :)
 
Thank you Cate! I appreciate the support.
 
I took a look back at my old weightloss journals from before and I was doing so good in 2009 before the DV turned my life into a massive crisis that threw me so far off track. So much has changed since then. I wanted to link to my previous attempts...

My diary's from 2009 (lost 70 lbs, couldn't get out of plateau and then my life went to hell): https://weight-loss.fitness.com/threads/tamaras-weightloss-journey.21313/ and https://weight-loss.fitness.com/thr...-journey-to-a-healthier-me.35299/#post-664285

Another attempt in 2014, very short lived (literally a year after my Dad passed away and few months after my Mom passed away, DV in 2nd marriage and SO cheated on me, went homeless): https://weight-loss.fitness.com/threads/if-not-now-when.62752/#post-891489


Which brings me to now. I will attempt to post at least twice a month and check on everyone else. To stay accountable! :)
 
Hey Tamara, good to meet you. And congratulations on being down to 338, that is a good restart!

I can sure relate to your weight ups and downs, my weight story is much the same, but I waited a lot longer than you to get it under control. You are wise to be doing it now.

I am looking forward to following your progress.
