Crawling back

Hello friends,

I was pretty active here last year until late fall. Then, a speed bump, and the a bigger one, and then 3 months went by, and feel like **** again.

Today, I took the step of logging again, and could use the help I had when things were going well.

I am ashamed to be back, because I should have never left.

Looking forward to seeing the old, and new friends here!

Thanks

Sean

    Welcome back! Log everything you eat accurately & honestly. Find reliable database entries. (There's a lot of incorrect data in there.) Weigh your food. Log your exercise, and eat back your exercise calories for two weeks. If you're still not losing, eat back half your exercise calories.

    I've crawled back 5 or more times. As long as you keep returning, all is not lost, and hopefully all is not GAINED! I know you'll find many many friends who understand. Good luck, and press on!!
