I'm back on MFP for the first time since August. My life has changed a lot in the last 6 months! My boyfriend and I moved in together and we are planning on getting engaged later this year. I went for my annual physical and discovered my weight has ballooned to almost 200 pounds. Not good news...my knees and back have started hurting again and I feel horrible all the time. My boyfriend tells me I look beautiful and he loves me the way I look but is supportive if I want to lose weight. So here I am! I want to lose 20 pounds by my birthday in April so wish me luck!!

Welcome back and congratulations on your engagement. You're in the right place to get extra support and get back on the healthy track.
I understand your frustration with weight gain after a loss. I actually gained back 40 pounds of 90 pound loss over the course of three years. This hurts!
Of the 20 pounds I have lost in the past 12 months, I have lost 12 pounds in 4 months with MFP. It's a big positive over trying to do it yourself.0 -
Thanks for your kind words It makes me feel better to know that other people understand what I'm going thru. As a result of my watching what I am eating my boyfriend has started losing weight too! We are eating out less and cooking more at home. It's fun and we are saving money!! We are still going to eat out once in awhile but not like we had been! Good luck on your weight loss journey!!0
