Trying to Overcome Obstacles

Recent life changes and unemployment had a profound effect on me and stress has always lead to eating more. Now I'm slowly getting it turned around and living with a more positive outlook and trying to undo the bad choices I made in the last few months.

it will not be an easy battle, but at my age I can't wait for things to change or it will be too late.

Hope to make some friends here.

Thanks.

Welcome Kobusdv!!

Its good that you realized things now and are making changes.  We are in charge of our life and are the only ones who can make or break these decisions.

As for friends....I am sure you will make a them...I have only been here for almost 3 weeks and its a great source of inspiration for me.

If ya need something, just give a yell!!!

Thanks for the warm welcome, Samantha. It seems like a friendly neighborhood to hang out, so I'm glad I found it.

Hello! I've been on CC for about three-four months and it has become a tool that helps me tremendously! Yes, the people on this site are very friendly and very helpful. I am going through the same sort of thing. Being 42, it is difficult to maintain my normal weight under difficult circumstances. You made the first right step toward your goal. Acknowledging your situation and reaching out to others are important things toward a successful recovery.

I wish you the best!
