Third times a charm? Need help for 30 day challenge.

I am starting with a new profile. I want a fresh start. Although I have to say I had made some amazing people on this program, I want to feel that I am starting from scratch.

First time around- I was new to MFP and I started at 200 (size 16) pounds and successfully lost weight with proper tracking, walking, and eventually jogging after six months. I lost a total of fifty pounds. My lowest weight was 138.5 (size 6 pants, size 8 dress) and I felt like a rock star.

Second time around- I was off MFP and I got up to 148. I wanted to lose the ten pounds I put on but with work and stress I didn't push myself hard enough to keep tracking

Third time (right now)- I have been extremely stressed at work the past six months and I am now up to 162 (size 10 pants, size 12 dress). This is depressing for me because I worked so hard to lose the weight. I don't have clothes that fit anymore which makes it hard. I am also TTC and going through IVF method next month. Work is still a bit stressful but finally getting some kind of rhythm.

So here I go again....one day at a time. The next month I have a goal to lose 7-8 pounds to keep it realistic.

I am going to start a 30 day challenge. I would like to video tape myself (for my own personal diary) and see if that would motivate me as well. Damn, why cant cabbage taste like a plate of nachos.

Would anyone like to add me?
