My story is a little different than most who are here for the 2nd time...and much the same. About 3yrs ago I started using MFP and lost almost 85lbs...thought I had changed my ways and kept it off for over a year and a half. Then my foot started hurting. Over the last year my foot pain got so bad I couldn't exercise or do much outside of go to work (I work 10hrs a day on my feet). Well I should have adjusted my calories, but I didn't in fact I became depressed and ate stuff I knew I shouldn't and gained 50lbs back. Now I had surgery on my foot 2 weeks ago and can't walk yet....it will be a few more weeks before I can walk unassisted and about 8weeks before I can be back to my normal and go to the gym. So I'm back here starting over again. But I lost a lot of my supportive friends on here during the last year. so I'm here looking for friends to help,motivate and support me.

  • HI millesun! My story is similar although without the injury. I lost 86 pounds, was doing great, thought I had changed my life. And then it just all stopped working for me. Out of nowhere my "healthy switch" flipped to off and it didn't matter what I did to try to get "back in the game." I started over a few weeks ago and have been going strong. Still have 44 pounds to re-loose but nothing is stopping me this time! Feel free to add me if you want....I log daily.
