Starting all over

I am looking to get motivated by the wider community. Been battling my weight for a number of years with ups and downs. Back up to 200lbs and need a change! Need motivation ☺️

    Hello. I have recently returned to MFP because I re-gained the 30+ pounds that I had lost a few years ago. Kind of mad at myself for that. I could use some new "MFP" friends and I could definatley use a pep talk every now and then.

    Me too! I've been up and down with my weight for years, currently in a prolonged 'up' and really struggling to get going on the 'down'. I know we can do it!!!

    Hi I started MFP 3 years ago. I did well at first went from 179 to 161. But then I goofed off. Went on and off several times but no real commitment. I recently came home from vacation to find myself at the highest weight ever at 190.4lbs. I knew I had to get serious. In the last eight days since this realization I have lost 7.4lbs. I have 150.4 lbs to get to goal. If you want a friend to encourage and be encouraged by send me a friend request.

    Hi, I joined MFP in 2012 and lost 17 pounds. Last year I lost my drive and had every excuse in the book not to track my food or jump on the treadmill. I am ready to face reality and get back in the game. I would love to have new friends with the same drive to motivate and inspire each other. Sending you a friend request and anyone else, who might be looking for new friends, please feel free to send one to me. :)
  • Hi guys ! I can't control ate my weight is always up and down :neutral: ... But mostly all the time is up, I used to be 200 lbs and I did a diet for 6 months and lost around 30 pounds but 20 of them are back again ...

    Hi ladies, I'm in the same boat. A dropped 20 pounds using MFP around this time last year. But got off track and gained most of it back. I'm recommitted and feeling clear about my plan of attack.

    I'm going back to what has worked in the past (planning, prep and consistency.)

    I'd be happy to add any and all of you as friends (not exactly sure how to do that however. :) )

    Got in great shape for the summer then 15 pounds crept back during a "bulk" period that needs to end!
