Been away too long...

I've been away too long. Between moving in with the fiance out-of-state, planning a wedding and starting a new job, over the last year I gained back the 20 pounds I had lost with MFP after a foot surgery.

Well, I had a little bit of a wake up call yesterday, and I need to get back to it and I'm looking for friends! I was most successful with MFP when I was very active, so I'd like people who are supportive and active as well. We can do this!

Here are my stats (though even if you aren't similar to me, I will still support you!): 5'2" and 158 lbs

    Hi! My name is Kim and my weight loss journey began two years ago. I was at my heaviest (225) and things were not good. I couldn't keep up with my kids, I was tired all the time, and my doctor told me that my cholesterol was on the rise! I decided something needed to change. I started walking, and eventually doing some weight training. I am down over 65 pounds! I feel so much better, and I love supporting and encouraging people to do the same. I would be happy to be an accountability partner with you. I still have some weight to lose, so we can work at it together! Getting your nutrition under control is a big key to losing weight. I can share what has worked for me if you are interested. If you work hard, I know you can reach your goal! So what do ya say? Are you in? If so, add me as a buddy!

    Hey! I'm newley back after amost a year as well with a new account, This time I am determined to stick to it! feel free to add me, I'm 5'7 and 186 ish so not close to you but thats okay by me!
  • Wow this could be me talking! I did the same, added weight back after doing so well for over a year. I am having the hardest time getting back into the daily logging, etc. It does help tremendously and keeps a person accountable, I just have to get my mindset back and stick with it. Good luck to you, feel free to add me as a friend!
