    I am restarting too! Feel free to add me. I think for all of us restarters, it is important that we don't give up. We may fall off the wagon for a bit, but we need to get back on it.

    I restarted about two months ago. The first time around the scale got stuck for three long months at the beginning of 2013. I finally said the heck with it and started eating what I wanted. I gained back everything I had lost and then some. Thanks to a friend from here who never gave up on me and would send me messages of encouragement every few weeks, I finally started believing that maybe they were right and I maybe I could start again. The fear of failing again was overwhelming, but I'm finally realizing that I can do this. Today, I hit the 25-pound-loss mark.

    Just keep putting one foot in front of the other and remember that just because you are struggling doesn't mean you are failing.

    congrats on the 25lb mark!!!! I just realized I hit 25lb too when I went to the doctor and found out my weight was more than I thought back in January;

    So I'm super super excited for you congrats. And I know I can do it again, it's just.. it's hard knowing I gained 147 pounds... I gained a whole freaking person..

    but thanks for your kind words. I really appreciate it.
