    Wow, totally overwhelmed by all your support and kind words, thank you all so much.

    This time I am determined to stick to it, and not shy away when I have had a day when I think what the hell and eat half the contents of my fridge in one go, in fact they are probably the days that I need to log the most! I have to stop letting one set back stop me from continuing with my good work. I lost over two and a half stone in 2012, but like quite a few of the people who have kindly replied, life got in the way and I used that as an excuse to "treat" myself with food and once again I find myself in a position where I really dislike the skin I am in and am desperate to change...

    Here we go then, we can all totally do this, one day at a time. Thank you all again so much for all the kind messages of support xx

    I'm starting again as well! I started January 10 2012 and stopped mid April when my friend lost her baby. It was a difficult time for everybody and after that I just gave up trying. But, I'm ready to start this again and keep with it. I had to adapt to my brother moving back in and so my eating habits went out the window lol. I REALLY DO LOOK 8 MONTHS PREGNANT! Freaks me out because I sometimes have phantom kicks even though he's almost 2 years old! haha. But yeah, anyone feel free to add me so we can motivate each other and keep each other going! WE CAN DO THIS! WE GOT THIS!

    Girl, all you gotta do is drink TONS of water. That water weight will go away and stay away as long as you watch your sodium and drink all day. You're supposed to drink half your body weight in oz. I should drink 115.5oz a day from where I stand now......THAT IS A LOT OF WATER....and I hate water. BUT WE CAN DO IT! It's not easy at first, but I speak from experience, it works. It sucks at first to change so much of your life at once, but for me it's the only way I made it 3 months....wow. I stayed with my diet last time for 3 months or so and lost 31lbs. But anyway, we can do this! WE GOT THIS!!!!

    I'm starting again too! I had lost 15lbs last year and have since gained it back and then some. I'm hoping to lose 35lbs and learn to eat healthy. I would love to have friends on MFP who can help keep me motivated so feel free to add me! :) Good luck on your journey!
