Fell off the wagon during pandemic

Hawwah493

Hi everyone, I was on the right track back in 2019. I had lost 55lbs and going strong using this app. Unfortunately, with the pandemic, I gained all of it back and +10lbs more 😩. Now that things are getting back to normal, I need to lose all that weight again.

Looking for friends that have gone through a similar situation and wants to really start over.

I always share my diary and would love friends who also share their diaries for recipe inspiration.

I like people who are not afraid to tell me that what I ate that day, was not so healthy and vise versa.

Hi, there! My loss/regain was a bit earlier than the pandemic. I lost 32 lbs on MFP in 2013, got down to 120, and have gained over 60 since 😩. I just started back today, and would love some encouragement.

Please add me... I've gained 40+ lbs during the last year and a half I would say. I've been trying all year to lose it but have not been able to find the motivation. I just end up feeling sorry for myself.

I was doing so good for so long, I had lost over 100 lbs, then got comfortable in my relationship and put it all back on. the past 1.5 years has been about 50 lbs of it. I keep trying but stop when I get stressed out or just bored. I need the motivation again.

Today I began tracking my macros and I’m cutting out processed foods and cutting way back on sugars & breads. At the beginning of 2020 I was 9 months postpartum and did a 6 weeks challenge that helped me lose the weight I had gained from pregnancy, and I was in such good shape until I had Covid about 6 months ago and started gaining a bunch of weight. I would love to have likeminded friends on here who are focusing on getting healthy and fit. It’s always tough at the beginning of this lifestyle change, but it’s so worth it. We owe it to ourselves to take care of our bodies. 💕

Hi there im the same. 5 years ago i lost 5 stone in 1 year on sw. Moved in with my partner, then national lockdown and bang, all plus extra gained again.

I can't blame the pandemic (only myself) but in 2018 I was exactly where I wanted to be and now I'm the heaviest I've been and feel weak and unmotivated, not sure how to get back where I was a few short years ago. Unfortunately since MFP changed the format I can't figure out how to add friends and I'm not sure if my diary is public but I will keep following the thread!
