    I believe there is some proverb about falling down 10 times and getting up 11

    You can add me, as well. I love that you have health goals. I am a good motivator. And I really believe that eating right and exercising is the key to weight loss and good health. I feel very fit since I started back in November and no longer huff and puff climbing the stairs.

    I'm with you! I restarted my journey 04/30/12. In 09/2012 - I had lost 20lbs! But today, when I get on the scale, I weigh EXACTLY what I did on 04/30/12... :( But as of today, I have to dig deep and get my motivation back. Most of the family on my dad's side has diabetes - and I don't want to be the next one. I'll send you a request! Let's motivate each other! :)

    I'm also re-starting, please feel free to add me. It is not an easy journey but I refuse to give up and the support I've received on MFP has been really great. Don't give up, life is going to happen, so don't beat yourself up!

    I have recently got back in the groove of MFP. I have found that having a smartphone with the app on it and the ability to
    take barcode pictures of the foods eaten makes logging so much easier. I also have an app edomondo that tracks my
    exercise and adds it to the site. And a fitbit that when I remember to put it on adds my steps throughtout the day when I
    sync it.
    Also something that has helped is having friends to message and to get motivation and to try to motivate them too!
    Good Luck you can do it, and remember restarts are better than no starts!

    Hi! I am new to mfp! About 5 years ago I lost 37 lbs for my wedding, but once the dress was off I gave up and stopped. Now looking back I wish I just stuck through it and i would probably be at goal. I am a 31 year old mother of 3 and need to lose 54lbs. I have been going to the gym for a week now and just this Monday started MFP and eating healthy. I need motivation and success stories to keep me going. :smile: I also have increase my water intake. Before I barely drank water, bad I know, but I am drinking about 5-6 bottles a day now. I am hoping this will help too.

    I'm also getting back into my journey. It's been a roller coaster for me so I can completely understand . You guys can feel free to add me and we can support each other. I believe it's important to have positive energy. It helps you keep going. Good luck! :)

    I am re-starting too! I feel your pain with the family genes... I have them too. I have been goofing off for way too long and flat out abusing my poor body. Time to make some life changes. Feel free to friend me... I will support you!

    I'm right there with you! Feel free to friend me if you want a little extra support. We're literally in the same boat here girlie, and I think weight falling off is the next thing to come.
