Getting serious!

3 years ago I lost 80lbs, I was in the best shape of my life. Then life happened and I lost track of my fitness and put 50lbs back on in the last year.

This past week I had a major breakthrough and started eating right and throwing myself at the gym. Finally I am able to do it by myself, I don't need anyone to push my workouts anymore (the first time around my best friend and I went together)

So now I am looking for friends that can be supportive on here. I have an open food diary and I am always open to suggestions :)

Also since getting back into it on wed last week I have lost 8lbs!

    Congrats. I am doing the same thing. Back in August of 2012 I was down over 50 pounds in less than a year thanks to diet, exercise and, of course, MFP! Then I had a super scary health problem and all of my work went down the drain. Well, I, too started eating healthy again this week and hit the gym today for the first time in a while. Feel great, super motivated, and looking for new MFP friends to take this journey with me. FR on the way!
