Fighting My Genetics

I've been overweight/obese since I was a small child. What was a chunky childhood turned into obese teenage years- then adult years. I know some of it was genetics and some of it was unhealthy habits. In 2007 I completely changed my lifestyle, and lost 70 lbs that year. I have kept up eating healthy/clean and also kept exercising as often as I could since then but had gained back most of the weight.

I started fighting back again this February, then started a more intense exercise program in June. I joined MFP at some point in June but haven't been more involved than logging food and exercise. I wanted to reach out to the community and receive as well as provide support as we all work towards our goals. I am discovering what works for me and my genetics and how to achieve lasting weight loss.

Thank you all for reading this and being part of the MFP community!
