I'm Back!

Hi all! I've done a couple of rounds at MFP in the past, and lost about 50 lbs. Unfortunately, during the same period, I also gained about 50 lbs, and find myself pretty much back to where I started. My doctor suggested that I consider bariatric surgery, and after a bit of research which scared the crap out of me, I've decided to give this another try.

Most of my friends on the site are no longer active, so am looking to reconnect with people who are interested in mutual encouragement.

This time, I'm trying Judith Beck's cognitive approach. Has anyone else done this? It involves 6 weeks of cognitive exercises to work on motivation and embedding new habits. The book is here:

Anyway, just taking the opportunity to say hello to everyone, and I will be very happy to see any friend requests that come my way!

    I have recently just started back on MFP. I havent been doing so well. I do good and take a few pounds off and then get discouraged and put them back on. I feel like today is the day. I work alot of hours but I would like to give you encouragement. Nice to have you back. You can do it. :smile:
