Getting back into MFP after break. Need some new friends!

Hi there!

With the help of MFP, I lost almost 100lbs in about a year period from 2011-2012. Between 2012-2013, I stopped logging & working out consistently for a few reasons (excuse A, excuse B, excuse C, no one cares, excuses are boring) and I gained back about 20lbs.

Now I'm back into the swing of things! I've been eating healthy & working out for the past month and I've started logging the past week or so. I feel confidant that I'm dedicated this process once more. A lot of my old friends seem to have disappeared in the year I was gone, so I'm looking for some new buddies to encourage and to be encouraged/inspired by! Any takers? :)

    I am getting back to MFP too. I went away and gained back all the weight I had lost but one pound. I worked so hard to lose the few pounds I did lose and now I start again. I too need "friends" to motivate me and keep me on track!!

    I'm in the same boat. I was doing well and then got off the wagon for a bit.
    So I'm back on diet and exercise here I come.
    Good luck and we can do this!

    I recently returned to MFP and lost a bunch of buddies from my first go on here. I am also trying to rebuild my support team. I would love to be friends. I will send you a friend request.
