    Good for you for starting again before you gained more than you lost. You can do it. I've been there...many times. No more yo-yo dieting for me or you. I am down 16 pounds since May 6 just using this site as my guide!
    I wish you the best in your journey and know you will reach and maintain your goal!:smile:
    I've got about 12 more lbs. to go...the maintenance is the hardest...we will do that too...we're worth it!

    Ah deja vu! I know it well. Almost 20 years ago I lost 100 lb. and vowed never to be overweight again. I rested at 115 and thought, I did it, never, never again. Well, complacency and an inability to deal with issues that caused weight gain in the first place slowly brought me back to unhealthy habits and the weight crept back. Now, again, I'm dealing with, truly dealing with those sabotaging habits and issues and replacing them day by day with better life choices. I've got 75 to lose. Well, that's my goal.

    I totally hear you and feel the weight of having to deal with the weight again. Here's the thing. Sometimes you just need a second chance to get it right. Really right. Learn from the past. Know that it is possible for you to do it. And do it -- day by day. Friend me if you would like more support. I'm super new to MFP and you would be my second pal. My sister was my first. :)
