I am back... I fell off for about a month & just haven’t had the motivation to start back food tracking & working out consistently!! It is truly a mental thing because when I think about food tracking I think about what I can and cannot eat. Sorry if I let all my MFP friends down. I hope you have been successful. I am going to try & focus & get back on track. I didn’t do too bad per the scale. BUT I feel miserable & sluggish!! Its embarrassing to see I have not logged in... WOW Shame on me!

    We have all been there, done that. The positive note is that you are back! Take it one meal, one day at a time! You can do it.

    I'm with you! I just got back on track this week. I find myself getting angry because this is all so hard for me. It's a fact of life that I need to eat well and exercise. I know this in my brain, but it just pisses me off that it's so hard! Now I'm back and it feels pretty good. As much as I hated to admit to myself that I need support, I do. MFP has been great for me. I'm glad you made your way back - You'll be much happier in the end. :happy:

    You and I have the same story...I just came back too and you are so right about it being a mental thing. We have to get over the thinking in terms of what we can't eat but what we can eat that is healthy and tasteful. I fight myself everyday...sometimes I think its a losing battle but then other times I think it would be terrible for me to give up. Here's to coming back and keep on moving forward!

    Welcome back glad to see ya! We all fall off from time to time. Sometimes people just need some "me" time to take a break, re-evaluate they wants and needs, It's all good for personal growth. So just smile, keep your chin up, and know that "its a new day, new week, new month. Lets take this wonderful journey together and see where it takes us? hugz:bigsmile:

    I am right in the middle of the same destructive behavior. I have been eating "bad" for almost two weeks now. I hope to get the motivation back soon! Wish me luck, and I will wish you luck. So......"Luck!". :wink:
