Hello All....I am born again to MFP after losing 80 lbs. Stating slacking off right before the holidays and gained 12lbs. I am lacking motivation to get started again and am looking for friends to help with motivation. Please feel free to add me as a friend if you would like to join in my weight loss achievements :)

    I think I have started over about a million times. I am still not sure if I can maintain the commitment. Everyday is a struggle to stay committed to doing the right thing for my body and a lot of days I fail,. Thanks to the people I have met on MFP it keeps me going one day at a time and that has become my mantra. If I screw up today I get another chance to do better tomorrow. We are here for you! Congratulations on the loss that is a huge accomplishment.

    Congrats on the 80 lb loss! That's awesome, even if you did slip a little. I've always heard that keeping it off is the hard part. I want to find out, but I've gotta lose it first. I'm looking for all the support I can get as well.

    Hey amaldonado,

    Hold the phone... you lost 80lbs since joining MFP? WOOooooow!!!!
    That's a huge accomplishment!
    Well, I just joined recently and I'm hoping I can lose 50lbs this year.
    Its been my goal for about 5 years now.
    Lets hope this time I can actually follow through on that.
    Wishing you much success... again! :-)
