Sigh... This seems like the 20th time around starting over. I didn't use myfitnesspal as much... not quite sure what I was thinking... tried to whole beach body thing and just kind of threw counting calories out the window... You know what that got me? weight gain! I weigh more than I ever have! I have been overthinking too much crap! So I am starting over with basic counting calories and just simple walking. I will make simple changes instead of feeling the need to turn my whole world completely upside down and around in one day. So now I am not new here but I am starting over as I am if that makes sense :/ Please feel free to add me I would love more friends to help me (and vice versa) along this journey :) I also have about 100 lbs to lose... so I have a ways to go!

    Welcome back. Don't beat yourself up over the beachbody thing. There's nothing wrong with trying something new to see if it works for you. You tried. It didn't. And you moved on. Nothing wrong with that! FWIW, counting calories is the only thing I've found that works for me. Best of luck to you!

    I've done the same thing. Over complicating the process then quitting. I've done this before on mfp before I got married and had a baby (whose now 2). If you'd like to send me a friend request we can tackle this together. Good luck! You can do it!

    Me too, my weight has gone up and down so many times! I lost 10lb with is app last year then stopped using it and ended up putting it all back on plus extra :/ but I'm determined to do it properly this time.

    I am back again- I have a Facebook page- Fit for life with Nalita, so the whole world can see my progress and help me. I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. This is the hardest thing i have ever done, and i don't know why.
