Hi Just thought I would tell some of my story means I know I'm in the right place. 
I started OMAD back in the middle of 2014 and had lost 56 pounds. I started at 266 and made it down to 210. On Jan 31 2015 I suffered a tragic loss and pretty much... Well long story short found myself weighing 280 at Christmas of 2016... Well I started back on Dec 28 and have lost 20 pounds so far....I have only had 2 mishaps which has been splurge days turning into 2. I'm determined to reach my goal this time and let nothing stand in my way. I think my biggeste obstacle is wanting everything lost now. This is a marathon and not a sprint. Also I always feel that if I mess up I've ruined everything. I'm now trying to tell myself it happens and tomorrow is a new day.... Well thanks for listening and I love reading everyone's discussions... Very motivating.
