This is my 2nd attempt at losing weight via MFP. The first time wasn't a real effort but this time I am for real serious about losing this weight. I am 55 years old and weigh 223 and I am not happy at all with myself. 6 years ago I was able to get down to my normal weight around 150 and was able to maintain that weight for 2 years then my daughter left for college and I turned to food for comfort. Needless to say I gained back every pound that I lost . I cannot believe that I let this happen to me again! With my husband and recently graduated daughter giving me encouragement, I feel this time I will be successful in both losing and keeping off the weight! Also hoping to get encouragement from my friends here as well whenever I start to get off track.
