So this is not my first time here by a long shot, but I've been gone for a long time since I've last tried to give this a serious shot.
I've experienced both the highs and the lows of weight loss. When I was first here I managed to be very successful, losing 20 pounds and making significant gains in strength and athleticism. However, I've also seen how much easier it is to have it all slip away if you let yourself go.
Now I'm heavier than when I started, and ready to give it a serious go again. And while I still have some great friends here, a lot of folks I was friends with here has moved on from the site. I know that if I'm going to be successful again, I'll need a strong support network.
Having been here a long time and having been successful before, I know a lot how weight loss SHOULD be done (it's always easier said than done though, as I'm living proof). I'd be happy to help those of you here who are looking for some help achieving your weight loss goals.
