Trying to find my motivation

Hello Everyone,

I am a 27 year old woman. I just got married in July. I am a full time college student and work full time as well. I first started my weight loss severely obese. I lost 130 lbs in 2009-2010. I maintained it for a year but with my crazy work and school schedule I fell off the wagon and have gained back about 65 lbs.

I feel awful about it but I can't seem to find my motivation or the time/energy to re-dedicate myself. I find myself so uncomfortable in my body again. My joints hurt, I get winded super quickly, and I feel so ashamed at having gained weight back.

I won't just give up though so here I am. Trying to find some support and motivation. Perhaps some accountability too. I feel like I am floundering.
