Getting Re-Started - Need Accountability

Short story is...I need some people to help keep me accountable and reach my goals.
Long story is...I was thin and not athletically gifted my whole life which was the main reason I was stuffed in lockers and all sorts of nonsense in school. Anyway, when I hit middle age, that changed. About 4 years ago I gained 20 pounds in the blink of an eye! My mother-in-law, of all people, asked if I had gained weight. Well, I joined MyFitnessPal (different account), counted calories, etc. and lost 20 pounds in about 6 months. I thought it was easy! Losing weight was not so hard.
Boy, was I wrong! I have since then gained and lost several times and now I need to lose 22lbs. The weight is harder to lose and I am less motivated. I now completely understand the challenge of losing weight!
So, please do me a favor and add me as a friend. I need a team to help me and I will absolutely help you.
Thanks!
