About a year ago I joined this site and loved it! The tools, support and info!!! I stuck with it and in about 6 months lost about 54lbs. I was so proud of myself. My grandfather fell ill and need round the clock care. I was with him just about every minute possible and all while trying to go back to school..... oh and I have my own two kids and husband at home. Needless to say that the last 6 months or so were very stressfull and sad. I lost my grandfather to cancer in November. He was one of my biggest cheerleaders and I know that he would be upset with me to know that I have gained back 20lbs that I had lost. So with that said, I am getting back to a schedule at the gym and I am hoping to have the motivation and supprt here that I used to. I am easy to talk to and am up for any challenge. I keep things honest on here because otherwise whats the point??? I like to watch biggest loser, it is very motivational and sometimes I learn new things!!

    Good for you for rejoining. Especially since you've made so much progress on your first bout. Sorry to hear about your loss. It is tough to lose someone so close to you. I hope it helps you to know that he will still be cheering for you from the other side and as always wants the very best for you.

    I have only been on this site for a week and a half, but I do find it to be very helpful and informative. I wish you the best of luck in your weight loss. I know you can do it, you've already proved that! :wink:
