I want to wish too, and could use a buddy

[faberj]

Hi Everyone...My name is Jessie and I would like to loose about 20 pounds. I was doing very well until the end of March (I was down 11 lbs) when I got really sick. I was on lots of meds including oral and injected steroids, was bedridden for a month. I am well on the mend now, but have gained the 11 pounds back and a few more. My clothes still fit, but not as well as they did before. I just do not feel like myself and it has really been getting me down. We just moved into our new house (after almost a moth of eating take out yuck!). And I want to get back on track. I eat fairly healthly to begin with. I am have been pretty busy getting the house organized, have started walking again, and have started sit ups and squats.
So I am looking for some suggestions and a buddy to follow up with.

Thanks,
Jessie

Jessie, Welcome to WISH!

I am glad that you are on the mend. Those steroids can certainly make a mess of all those good efforts to maintain weight loss.

Now that you are moving about and getting to feeling better I am sure you will succeed. If you don't have a WISH buddy, you might try to join in on any of the threads and perhaps continue on this one for a bit.

There are many opportunities here on WISH to get you through your journey. Join in on those too.

We can all use your help to keep us going on our way just as you can use the help of WISHers. Come often, post lots!

Keep on keepin' on.

Hi Jessie,

Welcome to WISH!! This is a great group of people and WISH has been so instrumental to my weight loss journey. I agree with Tiger Lily, jump into a thread and join one of the many mini-groups in a challenge.
