Today is my new start

I was here a little over 2 years ago where I lost 80 lbs. Well since then life has happened (good things- I got married and I quit smoking) and I stopped tracking and started using food instead of cigarettes to cope with stress. I have gained back 58 of my 80 lbs.
Today I woke up and decided this is the day. I won’t put time limits or rush. I’m going to live life- just healthier and feeling better.
I have tried many many many times to get back on track the past year and failed. Today I won’t fail- because it’s not a diet that I am “on” or “off”. For me it’s a lifetime struggle that I have to learn to deal with the rest of my life. So if I have the cake I have the cake- I just don’t go on a 2 week binge after.
Anyways- enough rambling! Looking forward to seeing everyone’s success!!!
