Gearing up to finish the journey

Last September I started my weight loss journey and went from 203 to 158 pounds and then lost my motivation and I have been treading water around the 160 mark for about 6 months. About 4 days ago I stepped on the scale and saw 171.5 staring back at me and that was all the motivation I needed to get back to paying attention to what I am doing. I am back down to 164.5 as of this morning and I have been tracking faithfully. I want to work to get to my original goal of 120 and I finally feel like I am in the head space where I can do it again. I would really love to make some friends so we can motivate each other and I can see other people besides myself on my app lol!
I totally don't feel like the last six months were a waste. I think after being 200 pounds for ten years I needed time to get used to a smaller skin before committing to the rest of the journey but I think I am finally at that place and it feels really good!
