Looking for Rockin' Results the 2nd time around!

Options
Good Morning! I started using MFP in April of 2010 and had great sucess in losing 30lbs between April and August. I was able to maintain that loss for several months until this past June when my husband and I separated (and ultimately divorced) and I gained 20 of those 30 back. :( Now it's time to get back to business again! I need to drop those 20lbs plus about 20 more this time. Last time I know I can attribute a lot of my success to the community here at MFP and the support I had. I know I'm going to need that again. If you think you can help by lending some support then please sent a request. :) I'd love to be able to lend my support out as well.

    You CAN do it! I, too, am on my 2nd time around. I dropped 100 pounds from May 29, 2009 to Dec. 28, 2010. I was moving a lot, exercising using EA Active Sport's Personal Trainer program. I felt GREAT. Then a lot of negativity entered my life and set me back. I have since gained 40 of those pounds back. I am planning a trip this summer to South America and am re-motivated all around to get rid of those 40 and continue on my journey. So I know your pain. But it CAN be done. Elminate all negativity from your mind and your life and thinking everything positive all the time. It's a struggle but you CAN do it. Keep up the great work!
