Hey everyone! Used MFP before and lost 40 lbs. Then I went back to school and with school came stress and I gained most of the weight back. I got a job which is commencing in May, so I want to lose as much weight as I can before I start. I plan on being active on here from now on and nothing keeps you going better than support from friends.

Cheers!

    Welcome back. I did the same thing; lost weight on MFP then stop using and gain some back. I realized this is a life commitment for me. Good Luck!! I agree friends are a must so you don't feel like you are the only one logging in everything you eat.
  • I'm into my second week back since 2012? Anyhoo, I have a goal of 20 lbs. to lose - 30 would be ideal but I'm shooting for the lower number first and could use weight loss buddies too...friend me if you like :wink:

  • I'm back too after gaining my 20lbs loss back over the past 4 years. So happy to have found a community in MFP! Happy to be added to anyone's list of friends here.

    I would love some friends to help motivate me. I keep falling of the fitness wagon, so to speak and really need to get back on.
    I find it so difficult to loose weight. I diet and exercise and eat clean food, well most of the time, sometimes you just need that extra motivation.
    When the scales say, not today Sooze. Try harder.
  • I've never really got into MFP yet.. I've been on idle for a few months but now really trying to give it a go. Would be great to have some more people on my feed for inspiration! Happy for any friend requests

  • Welcome back.

    I'm new here as of this week.

    Remember, this is all part of your process, you've lost it before, so you know you can do it again. Calories don't lie. You know what you need to do.

    Keep going!
