Can't Wait

Hi all, I used to use MFP and lost a lot of weight. I stupidly stopped logging as much, then eventually stopped logging at all. The result was that I stopped monitoring my calorie intake and let all the bad unhealthy stuff creep back into my diet. Before I knew it I was heavier than I had been when I started on MFP.

Now that I am back, I am doing great, with a steady loss each week, the only thing is, when I came back and entered my weight in the progress section, it then showed my horrific gain, so even although I am losing every week, it still says I have lost 0Lbs, it obviously won't register a loss until I get back to what I was, but I can't wait to see it register on my wee tracker bar again. Should I have changed this when I started back xx :)

    Ah, I might just do that now, it's just annoying me as I am 1lb away from my first stone since I came back, would be nice to see it on my tracker. Sad as it may seem, lol xx :)

    It really is, that's why I had to go fix mine, it has been bugging me since I started back, but at least it's fixed and I can see my loss now xx :)

    Glad you were able to fix it! I was in the same boat when I hurt my back last summer. I stopped working out in order to let my back heal but then I fell out of the habit of logging and working out so I gained back all the weight and some. I had lost 26 lbs but gained it all back plus 3 more! So now I am starting over this week. I'm hoping to lose the weight again like you. It's awesome that you're losing weight and back on track. Good job!
