Why do you keep coming back?

I've struggled since march. I've gone from 500 days logging to 0 days logging, even ask myself "why continue". I guess the real answer for me is the fear of gaining, the fear of going back to where I started. I've gained back from my comfortable zone the past few months 12 lbs. unacceptable. It's hard, my biggest fear is coming true, and I can't seem to make things work the way they use to. I'm going to eat the word I discouraged everyone else from using, but honestly feel like a "failure". Really wish I could get myself back on track. Another reson I come back is the push and encouragement of my stronger friend and want nothing more than to see there success as well as mine.

    i also got sidetracked from my weight loss goals last october. i was doing really well up until then and got sidetracked. the good news is that i maintained the size lost i worked for.

    i come back because i know i'm still not finished. i'm 75% there to getting back on track. i'm basically getting back into it the original way i started : one day at a time.. making good choices 1 meal at a time, having good workouts 45-60 minutes a day. i'll do this the same as i did the first time : until it becomes a habit. until then i just have to make sure to be conscientious about my choices.

    I haven't met my goal of getting down to 16% body fat. I am currently at 22% body fat, and I know that I will struggle to get down to my goal if I don't plan out my meals. That's why I come back daily. I strive to meet the goals that I haven't met yet.
