Gone up 10 pounds-Now 15 pounds from goal

I've been working on losing weight for well over 2 years. I had lost 50 pounds. Not going to lie-I'm so tired of tracking everything. I'm 5'4 and was down to 141. I'm now back up to 150 or so. I wanted to be at 135, so my goal weight doesn't seem unreasonable. I was running 5 days a week, but anxiety took hold bad last year (about 7 months ago) and I got completely off track. Now I'm struggling with-should I just be happy where I'm at? Or do I push myself to get back down to where I was? I pretty much look the same and wear a size 8, when before I was a 6/8.

Has anyone else faced this? What did you do to start fresh and get motivated again?

    If you're personally motivated enough to get there, you'll do it. Motivation is a personal thing and other than hearing/seeing some inspiring, you dictate if you're going to do it or not.
