Survival Mode Put Us Back to Zero

A lot of you came here many moons ago when I left Sparkpeople.  I loved the community of that place and the support I got there.  It was at the height of us being on our game.  That motivation you have in the beginning when you're consistently rewarded with weight loss, smaller clothes, compliments to keep your motivation high and you somehow begin to step out of being invisible to the public to people smiling at you, opening doors or striking up conversation.  You start to feel human.  You don't have to worry about going to restaurants or 'fitting' somewhere.  You can go to a wedding and see those God awful thin folding chairs and while you still don't like them, you're not concerned.  Many of your worries that fit people never had to think of, have faded away.  We started for the long haul in our 30's and that's when we had the most success, losing 226 and 190 lbs respectively.  When we went on vacation, as long as we came back and got rig...

  1. I have to say seeing my brother's face on my own feed a little more than a day later did the same thing to me. I hate Google's algorithm. It knows too much!

  3. Covid separated us from my inlaws quite a bit and its continued. Found out on FB I have a new great niece and didn't know she was pregnant! Very sad

  4. I would have to say the SparkPeople thing was a huge shock that threw me for a loop as well.

    AL: I agree!

    Dawn: So sorry to hear that. I feel like Covid has accelerated some family breakdown situations from what I'm hearing.

    Woodsy: Sure did. :-(
