Other than what is in my profile, I don't really do much. In all honesty, I have pretty much shut myself away for a number of years now and not really made the effort. I figured it was about time I actually did something to improve a number of areas in my life and I think my weight loss is probably going to be the biggest part of all that.

I have been thinking about Teams, but not sure what to do.

Come on into Team 22.. biltsy is part of it and we're friendly.. just as friendly as here.

It's great that you are taking charge now Mat. Weight can be so depressing and was a big part of my depression in my late teens. It took a long time for me to get any form of self esteem back and it'll never be perfect.
One step at a time is a great way of making changes. I had counselling some years ago, and it worked on a cycle of change.. like a wheel.. top was 'in active', next was 'planning', then was 'active', then was 'achieving'. Basically it was a demonstration that sometimes we don't even think about change, then sometiems we 'think' about it but do nothing, other times we are pro-active and make changes.. then there is when we achieve it. The flow of the wheel wasn't one way.. there are times when we are actively changing but step back for some reason, then we move forward again etc..

I don't know if this will transfer right onto text, but I guess what I'm saying is that we all go through periods of time when we can't cope with the idea of losing weight etc and others when we can.

((hugs))

Thanks for your advice yesterday Purple Hugs, it really helped.

I also wanted to thank you for the invitation to join Team 22. It does look like a great Team, but I am in a pickle about what to do now.

Sorry. It's probably just me. I've had a rant on another thread already, so I won't bother everyone with it in this thread too.
