    I'm in! Since I was alone for Christmas, I didnt have all the rich food, the dinners cookies, as where I worked closed for the holidys as well, so I am in the process of a smoothie diet, transitioning into the Daniel diet. Hopefully I can stay strong till my husband comes home and he wants steaks and potatoes and fried shrimp. it is easier to stay strong when he is on the road but he loves to cook when he is home.

    I agree. 2012 has definitely been a rough year. I wouldn't say I'm starting over. I'm keeping my numbers from last October when i restarted. However, I'm getting more serious when I wake up tomorrow morning.

    Starting fresh is a good way to put it. I stopped working out/eating right when I got mononucleosis this year and was on a 2 month running ban. I just slacked all around after that. After gaining back about 15lbs from the 50 I lost and my smallest pants don't fit anymore, I'm horrified that I'll go back to my starting weight. Not happening, so started back on it today. :)

    I am not starting over, but I have gained a few thru the Holidays (starting at Thanksgiving) but worse than that, I have not done any great exercising since then either. I have got to get back out there! WHY IS IT SO HARD?????

    Yes, I'm starting over from scratch TODAY! I got lazy with exercising and food and quit weighing myself cause I knew it was bad. Forced myself to weigh this morning and I was shocked at the weight gain. So I have reset all of my numbers and I'm getting serious again. Good luck everyone and Happy New Year!

    Today is my day to start over. That may have to become my morning mantra..."today is my day" "Today is my day". My plan is to lose 50 lbs. (I could stand to lose 100) But I'm going to split it into 5 mini goals of 10 lbs each.

    I've logged my food today and it's not very pretty ---all things considered I'm going to be happy that I've taken that much of a step today.

    Add me to the list! I maintained from March until Thanksgiving. Since then, I've probably added 4-5 lbs. First of the year, it's coming off!

    Yep, I'm starting again too.

    Started losing weight in January 2011 at 339, and lost down to bout 245 in March 2012, and then am now back up to 308 :(

    It can only get better from here!

    Finishing off rather than start over, need to get back on it though and lose a little then maintain.

    Good luck all with your goals.

    I definately am starting over and going to go at it HARD!! I have been VERY bad and it's time to stop!
    I am SO with you AmandaVictori - I feel the same way. In reality I have about 40 pounds to loose - I wonder everyday - how did I let it get this far out of hand?!?! Not only the weight so many other things - even though there is more of my physically I feel like I have disappeared. Watch out because I am coming back!!

    Good luck to all of you who are also starting over or continuing on your journey!

    Happy New Year!

    I'm not starting over..I'm taking it to the next level. 2012 was a decent year, and 2013 is shaping up to be bigger and better.

    I was going to start over in the new year, and then decided WHY WAIT? Three days of exercise under my belt already. Tonight's celebrations will be easier knowing I've already hit the gym.

    I too am starting over. I have gained back the 10 lbs I lost. I cooked lots for the holidays and enjoyed eating all the wrong things. They opened a new Krispy Kreme in our area and I love those things. I had found lots of good recipes and really enjoyed eating and cooking them. My will power waned about October and it was all down hill from there. My husband has been really supportive and I even went to see a fitness/md. She was awesome. I was so encouraged and lost 10 lbs in a month. Did not have much luck losing after that. I have Lupus and sometimes the exercise of walking makes me hurt afterward. I need lots of encouragement to keep going on this. Best of luck to everyone in the New Year!
