Back on IP

Hello All!
I lost 20 pounds last summer on IP, then went on to tone my body with daily Jillian Michaels work outs. I used MFP to log my calories and stay in harmony. It was awesome.
But the last few months my drive for being in shape and healthy simply faded between stress and being sick. Plus, I really lost it with sugar intake. I've gained about 5 pounds back, however I am more concerned about my lack of self care and know that I am on a slippery slope.
So, I am starting on IP to lose a few pounds, get back into a routine that works, and set some long term goals for myself.
I am happy to see this board has picked up in activity level, and I am looking forward to making new friends here on MFP.
Best,
Sharon

Good for you for starting up again! I just 'graduated' to phase 2. I know I will need support and maybe a good swift kick now and then to keep me on the path. Good luck to you!0

I hope that you've been feeling better? Self care is a hard thing but I guess making it habit is what people need to do more.
Had you gone through all the Phases of IP when you stopped last summer?0 -
Yep, I went through all the phases. I felt great. And was totally ready to crank it up a notch with working out.
I am feeling better. I think it's no coincidence that when I started slacking on my diet I started getting sick more.0
