Thansk Eddie,
I did go to my first WW meeting in months on Sat and have gotten back on program for the past 2 days. It's a start... Tanukiki "Eddie-Type2" wrote in message ... Hi Tanukiki, Sorry that you're going through such a rough time right now. Things will get better. You need to try your best to stay positive and be strong for your family. It's good to hear from you. As Lee said, come back and post more if you get an opportunity.......sometimes all we really need is a little outside encouragement to spark that fire in us to get going again!

Aaaahhhh... the "tada syndrome!" You nailed it! I suffered from that last
year after my initial 17 lb. loss with WW... and slowly but surely, it all came back on. I was so depressed about that. And like you, it wasn't binging that got me there, but the larger than should be portion sizes, the occasional cookie allowance which snowballed into more and more, and more and more excuses than what I should have had! It's just a little at a time, and kind of continum of smart choices, and the refocussed mindset of "I can do this..." just like the little engine that could ; ) Thanks for sharing your heart in this... and for sharing the truth that "this is something that I also will have to do for the rest of my life"... this is so true for me as well. Looking at that statement is powerful... and truly helps you focus that it's longterm, and that every day, and every food choice is counted toward the larger goal. : ) Again, thanks for sharing your heart! smiles! "Eddie-Type2" wrote in message ... Hello spaceyjane! Thank you for your words of encouragement. I sincerely appreciate them. Refocusing has been very hard for me since Christmas. I know I have the ability to make the plan work, because I had previously lost 83 lbs. Unfortunately, I think I allowed the "TADA syndrome" to take over and I made the conscience choice to indulge more than I should have. I didn't binge and I never totally went off program, but rather indulged in bigger portions, or the odd chocolate here or there, and before you know it, I gained back 4, 5, 8, 10, 15, 20 lbs!!! It's amazing how fast the weight can come back on! Actually, it's quite scary! Fortunately, my outlook on the situation is a renewed vigor to get back on track and be successfully. Putting 3 weeks together in a row was a psychological victory for me. Acknowledging that I have to do this for the rest of my life is actually very empowering to me. Some may find it depressing, but I personally feel that it is the driving factor behind my determination to win this battle. Eddie Weight June05-359.0lbs Current Weight-291.2lbs Loss to date=67.8lbs Goal Weight-180.0lbs "spaceyjane" wrote in message . .. Way to go Eddie for not stopping the meetings, and for the recent loss!!! That is awesome! You're inspiring in that you're not beating yourself over the head and going on with refocussing your effort. I think we all have times where we feel the full force that "tomorrow is a new day". Enjoy today Eddie! Thanks for posting again and showing us that we all are in this together! "Eddie-Type2" wrote in message ... Hi all, It's been a while since I've posted.

Yes, the TADA syndrome got me for sure. I'm not sure if I ever told you
this or not (I know I have posted it previously, so the regulars here will think I'm sounding like a broken record), but when I started WW, I couldn't even stand on my own for more than 5 minutes without excruciating pain in my back and breaking out in a major sweat! I couldn't even stand in line for my first WI !! Losing 83 lbs, well now it's only 67.8 lbs has changed my life dramatically. I can walk anywhere now without any concern. I am exercising 3 or 4 times a week doing weight lifting and the treadmill. I've actually started using the elliptical trainer now!!!.......these are awesome achievements for me and life-changing for the better. There is no way I am ever going back to the brink. I won't let the Tada Syndrome get the better of me again............never!
