    This is my 2nd time back, tonight as a matter of fact, is my first log in in months. I have gained the wait back and I am going through a depression, which I believe is the weather. I feel like this every winter. I am sluggish and unmotivated. I am going to try this again. Wish my luck, as I will be routing for all of you. I see a lot of you have come a long way!! Congrats on your successes. I did good with this before so we will see what happens!! =)

    Seasonal depression is definitely a real thing. Getting enough vitamins (especially D) and doing some exercise can do wonders to combat it! Good luck!

    This is my second time, it worked but I got tired of the pressure I was putting on myself.
    I'm much more realistic with my exercise/food now and it's working out better for me.

    Yep yep! I am the same way!!! This is probably my 3rd of 4th time. I don't think I took it seriously before since I wasn't logging religiously (especially my weekends and when I would eat badly when I knew better). I got depressed so this time, I'm logging it all! No hold-backs! I am also serious about why I want to lose weight/shape-up so I know I'll be better. I just have to be real and stop putting myself down for going off track. It's better to get back on the train than to just jump off completely.

    Thanks for answering everybody. It is helpful to read all of your replies. I feel much more committed to stay the course knowing others have made more than one attempt and found success their second or third time around. I see many people are also making it a life time commitment. Cheers to them. I hope I become one of them.

    I have been a member for years, but I never logged more than one meal here and there and one total day or so. I would return every so often and log something and change my weight. I never really sat down and looked for support and calculated my goals until this time. I am 43 days in now and down 14 pounds. I wish I would have done this when I first joined!

    Third and final time here. No support the other 2 times but have a great support system this time and its way easier to keep going with a good support system.

    Back for the 3rd time. But I do this every year when I start my cut. I'll be gone again starting mid-October.

    My 2nd time. I nailed my goal the first time around and gained some back. I'm back to lose it again and this time permanently!

    Well I joined over a year ago and only logged for about a week. Came back March of this year and I'm in it to win it...

    This is my second time. I was not serious the first time and thought I could spot reduce belly fat by doing cardio only and not using a food scale.

    Came back in March of this year and have been successful thus far.

    Second attempt. Like most diet plans, once you stop, you gain. My doctor and I worked out a multiple step plan to lose the weight and keep it off. MFP is the anchor that will folow through at each stage, ending with only MFP. I've resigned myself that I will be loggin my food for the rest of my life.

    I am hoping for a food recognition breakthrough that a simple snapping of a picture will result in the food being recognized and recorded. It will happen, but probably not in my lifetime.
