I'm not new to MFP but I'm starting over again. I tried last year, lost about 30lbs and then ended up gaining that back and then some. Ouch :(

My name is Bella, and I've recently lost 3lbs using MFP and exercising. I weigh 339 right now, and have a goal weight of 150 . I'm looking for positive, active friends on MFP. I log daily, and I also blog daily on my Wordpress blog. I also deal with panic disorder and agoraphobia so getting outside to exercise or to the gym is nearly impossible, but it's slowly getting better. I'm on disability for my mental illness and my obesity. I'd like that to change so I can go back to work.

Good luck to every one here :)

    Hi Bella, welcome back! Boy can I relate to the lose-gain-bring some friends back home with you routine. I always say that I dieted my way up to my highest known of 409. Good luck on your journey!

    I'm in, also starting over. Lost all my pregnancy weight, but then gained it all back, hoping to get back to my pre pregnancy weight of 295 which is about 18 pounds away now, then going down from there. Lets keep each other motivated.

    Anyone else can add me too. Cheers.

    I too am starting up again. Literally just jumped back on the site yesterday for the first time in a while! I am currently at 307. I have gotten into such a BAD eating habit that I have not only gained all this weight, but I also feel like total crap. No motivation, and am just tired all the time. I am currently a full time student, so that hasn't made things any easier, as I sit a lot in class and while studying. Not to mention it is just easier to grab some really over processed crap to eat when on the run! At some point during the week I have to get to the grocery store so I can get some healthy stuff, but I plan to start tracking again tomorrow even if it isnt the greatest foods! Anyway, enough of my chatter... anyone feel free to add me as a friend :)

    I started off with intense anxiety which eventually escalated to complete avoidance and agoraphobia. I just want to tell you that any challenge is possible with the right attitude. I am still on my weightloss journey but I am slowly but surely coming through my internal struggles. Good Luck!!
