All that weight I lost in 2010--I've gained it all back, with interest.
I'm going to lose it again. Just has to be done.
I'm grossly out of shape. I had no cardiovascular fitness at all last month. So I set a goal for myself--each morning before work I'm going to get on my elliptical trainer and run. That first week of school I did 12 min each morning. I increased it 1 minute each week, so that this week I'm up to 18 min each morning. I notice that already I'm not only "running" farther than I did when I started, but faster as well. My goal is to get up to 20 min each morning, and from then on just work on speed and stamina.
I haven't missed a work morning yet!

You should also do some strength training: https://startingstrength.com/
Of course I should--but I probably won't. I've never much enjoyed strength training. I'm more likely just to run faster on the treadmill.
Belated congratulations. I stumbled across the book "Always Hungry" by Dr. Ludwig and I've been having more success than I have had with Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig. It's not easy, but I don't feel deprived. It's an interesting study that Dr. Ludwig lays out.
