    Me too! I always start then, there is always an excuse I guess. I am so motivated to get to 125, I am 140 right now. I personally do my MFP calorie plan for me. So lets do this!! Do you have a first goal? My first goal is to be 136 in 2 weeks.

    I hoping to be 150 by the end of this week.
    By the end of the month, I'd like to be 145.

    Yes I myself have tried and tried again.. heard something today saying that The Key to Success is to Try..Try..Try again.. so when we dont quit inspite of being hurt and devistated that we let our selves down..we learn..and if we still push through all the negative emotions..there is Victory awaiting each and everyone of us.. I beleive that.. I just want to see it...

    Yes I to am starting again, I do not chat everyday as I work. Today storm stayed at home I do try to faithfully log my food. I enjoy be able to see what other people are eating. I have trouble figuring out what to eat. I am 5 2" and 147 lbs @ 47 years old. My biggest downfall is weekends when we are out not sure how to eat well in restaurants. So please feel free to add ma as a friend, maybe just don't expect replies to everything right away.

    Same here! Think I may have tried to take on too much at once though - healthy eating, upping the exercise and quitting smoking. Went 7 days without a smoke and then today had coffee with the girls - who all smoke and ended up having 1 (well 3 actually) - than really annoyed with myself when I got home and ended up in the kids biscuits.

    I want to loose a good two dress sizes, I'm a 12/14 (uk size) at the moment, and hopefully I can do it this time.

    Exercise wise I do kickboxing 45 mins twice a week and am looking to add in another 45 minute session of something but not decided what yet.

    Good luck on your journeys everyone :)

    I'm in the same boat.. 2013 sucked and I lost a ton of weight from it (30+ lbs). I've gained back about 15 and want to lose 15+ more. I just need to do it and get out of this funk! It's a new year!!!

    Looking for active friends! :)

    So nice to see I'm not alone! I had full intentions of starting the new year of right. Day 7 and I have been really struggling. It's hard to get back into good choices. And damn the delicious Pepsi!! Need to get back on the treadmill, insanity, and eating right. I'm with you!

    Same here. I feel your frustratiom. I started MFP in July 13' and I just gave up. But I'm back and hopefully here to stay for a while. I get so frustrated looking at my old cute skinny clothes. Makes me sad but I guess that kinda motivates me. I wish you best of luck!

    Hi everyone,
    I too am back...again. Goal is 160 by month end. That will be equivalent to the 5 lbs I gained this holiday season and the 5 lbs I gained last holiday season. I know 10 lbs to loose in a month is a lot so I will deem 7 lbs an acceptable target.
