I think I'm not taken as seriously here simply because I don't have as much to lose. But, I take my weight very seriously since my mom died at age 61 of diabetes and heart troubles. It made me mad at her that she didn't think it was worth taking care of herself to be around for her kids and grandkids. She was a foodaholic--never stuck to exercise or a healthy diet. It was very frustrating to watch. I will NOT do that to my family.
I'll weigh in for the last time today. I lost 1.5 lbs this weeks after a month of temporary downs--142.5. My goal is 138, so it should happen soon.
Good luck everyone. Keep going--this is important for you and all who love you.
I just read your post but didn't read what led up to this decision. I'm so very sorry you feel like you aren't taken as seriously as others. PLEASE don't leave. I love reading your posts. Anyone can tell you, those last few pounds are usually the hardest to lose. You need us, and we definitely need you. Please reconsider. I didn't even log in yesterday because I feel so bad about giving up. I had a horrible two days. Make a deal with you, you don't give up on us and I will get back on track today and stay there. P l e a s e? I'm sorry for whatever was said to hurt you. :-(
