Hi, My goal was to lose 50 pounds by the time I turned 50 which I did. There has been a lot going on in my life and I have noticed I've gained a few pounds back over the last 6 months and wasn't eating or working out like I had been. I need support to get back on track before the pounds keep piling on. I worked hard to get the weight off and was so dedicated and I need a boost of encouragement. Thanks

    I will add you. I need the encouragement too. I lost 40 pounds in 2012 and was so proud of myself. I then had brain surgery that left me in rehab, paralysed and learning how to walk again etc thru the recovery i gained all the weight back because I couldnt do much physically and had to eat what loving and helpful people gave me hahaha So I gained it all back.... I am SO ready to lose it again and keep it off. I was so happy in my skin ... even if my weight loss only lasted less than a year hahaha

    Would love to be your friend. I also gained weight but mine was due to stress and inlaws from hell. I had lost 80lbs and because they need to control everything and take over my husbands life and we blocked them at every turn my life was actually a living hell for awhile. I gained 70lbs back and have finally managed to keep going on my diet. Anyone who likes may add me also. I lost alot of friends when I was going through what I did and am eager to get going again.

    I'm in! Im not sure how to do this though. I've tracked food on and off for a long time and would love to give and recieve support from others. How do I "friend" you?

    Thanks! I figured it out. I should have tried before I posted that, it was easy:)

    I feel your pain- whenever I quit logging (or start using the treadmill as a clothesline) the weight creeps back!
