in Getting Started
Last year with MFP I lost 22 pounds, hit my goal weight, and couldn't have been happier. Well in the last year I have had a stressful working environment and it has caused me to fall into bad habits. I gained 6 pounds back and now that I have a break it is time for me to get back on track. I used to have great MFP friends but I deleted all of them some months ago and am looking forward to finding new friends. I have an open diary and love friends that have the same, but of course not needed. If you add me as a friend I promise to give you

    Hi! I have loads to lose and I'm happy to support you. Although I didn't achieve goal, I experienced a similar weight loss last year. but have put it all back on so this is also my second journey. Older and wiser and determined not to make the same mistakes. Definitely need to curb my emotional eating. Love to hear from you all. :) Sarah/London

    I've done this before and MFP is always a major part of my journey. The last time I was using this site I lost 45 pounds. Yeah me! But then life happened and I let stress and depression win the battle. I put 30 of those pounds back on and I am NOT happy and just don't feel good. I'm back at it and more determined than ever.

    The stress is not gone and won't be for some time BUT I am NOT letting have the control or power anymore.

    I've got a total 80 pounds I'd like to lose from here. If you'd like some support, I will be on here daily. I promise to cheer on your victories and give you support when you need a kick in the behind. All I ask is that you provide the same....

    Send me a friend request if interested.... and, good luck on your journey. Let's kick FATS butt!

    Did really well today and then my husband made BANOFFEE PIE!!! He wants to cheer me up cos he thinks I'm suffering (but I'm really not!!!) I've tried everything to get him to stop baking, or buying me chocolates because he's sabotaging my efforts, but he says that if I don't want the stuff, I shouldn't eat it. Of course, I never can resist the treats when they're in my face so I've completely ruined my good work today. Never mind, tomorrow is another day. Hope you're all having better days.
