I ve been on my journey for about a year now. I lost 50 ibs originally and then got stuck, let some bad eating habits creep back in and gained 15 ibs back

    50lbs is an awesome achievement. If you can get that far you can definitely reach your next goal.

    I'm in the same boat. I lost a bunch and have gained it back. Time to get serious about this again.

    The best thing about having done this before, is that you know you are capable. There are a lot of folks just starting, this month, that are not sure if they can succeed or not. You got this!

    Thank u @whoffmanz. I will be super motivated for a while and then I ll lose it and it's a pain to get it back! I know that's when the discipline should kick in bc u aren't gonna always "feel" it, that is what i really need to focus on overcoming, pushing through when I don't feel like it. I feel like I m back on the right path of making better choices.

    Add me if you like. I'm on pretty much every day. I had lost over 70lbs but then got pregnant and then lazy after I had my daughter so I gained it back. I'm working really hard to get it off again. My first goal is to lose 30lbs by May.

    @corporatelawmom this is something I m very familiar with. I m ready to overcome it! Now that I m motivated. The real issue is when I m not motivated that I need to discipline myself and stick to eating healthier. Good luck to u! We have so much potential within us!

    @kunaal50 it's a vicious cycle, isn't it?

    Same here! I have about 40lbs to lose in total. I started back again last week after about a year off and so far it's going okay. I'll send you a request!

    I used MFP a couple years back and it helped me get into the best shape of my life! Then I got comfortable with my now husband and I've gained 30 pounds :(
    Anyway, now I'm back and going to hit this out of the park! It's just going to take a long time.

    We can do this!

    New here as well, trying to keep motivated to lose 20 pounds more. If you did it once you can do it again, keep motivated and good luck.
