Getting started...again! Anyone back here after a long 'sabbatical'?

Yup! I made a whole new account and everything. I'm starting fresh!

I'm back after 3 yrs. lost 40 then. Gained 20 back in 2015. Shame on me.

I'm back after about 6 months. I -really- needed a mental break. I lost 50 pounds and gained about 10 back (I'm still within my healthy BMI so I'm not kicking myself too hard). I need to lose 15 more to reach my UGW .

I lost 90lbs in 2012 with MFP. After feeling comfortable with the weight I stopped logging in. I am motivated as ever to get back to were I was back then. I have an open diary and always looking for new friends.

I lost 80 pounds from 2012-2013 then went through a bunch of bad times until summer of last year. I unfortunately gained all the weight back. So I decided last month that things in my life were at the best it's been since I stopped and am now back in the game! Feel free to add me, anyone!

*Waves*

I'm back after finally getting an illness under control, in which I have gained back the 16kg I lost last time (16kg in 16 months or so... could've been a lot worse), but my previous IF method won't work now, so full on calorie counting is starting

Aiming to lose around 40kg overall, but will take whatever I can get. Feel free to add me, anyone

I had a triple digit logging streak (without even knowing what that was), was working out 3-5 days/week and diligent on an expensive nutrition regimen. An interruption in my supplement supply chain caused a slow breakdown in everything I was doing. I was ~12 shy of my goal - I missed it and basically gave up.

Now, I've decided to go after my goal a bit older, wiser and smarter. I also recently had surgery to correct an internal structural problem and I'm on day 5 post surgery (returned to work yesterday) and I'm energized to improve my physical heath, which means getting my BMI into a better range, despite how good I already look; I could be better.

Also back due to health reasons - I'm on an elimination diet (due to suspected intolerance(s)), so it helps me to track what I eat. However, I gained almost all of my weight back (40 odd lbs to be precise). To be fair, I was going through a lot. But, no more excuses and getting myself back on track. Feel free to add me.

Yep, me. Health issues after losing 58lbs caused me to stop giving a damn, and I gained back 34 over 3 years. I'd just reached my initial goal weight (top end of 'normal' bmi) when I first became unwell - I'd originally planned to go into maintenance for a while and re-evaluate. I came back here a few months ago and am now within a couple of pounds of picking up where I left off, and am setting about figuring out what my actual goal is (estimating another 15lbs or so), but without that pesky internal organ to knock me off course

Me too! I have only logged in sporadically in the past two years and seem to only log food for a few days. Now at my highest weight ever, I really hope to stick with it from now on. I couldn't help notice there are others like me that feel like we need a kick in the butt to get it in gear. I keep considering paying for a weight loss program so someone will hold me accountable!

I'm ready to try this again. I was doing well and motivated last year and really lost momentum. Good luck everyone!

Back on the wagon after putting some weight back on. I thought I did well the first time but when I reference my old weight logs I am doing better this go round.

Welcome back I am! I was away from any sign of being healthy. I wasn't working out, I wasn't eating well, I was gaining weight and moping around. I haven't been doing this well since like 2011.

Back on the horse since the 2nd and I feel so good! Feel free to add me as a friend if you'd like

Im back at it too! Believe me, I am ready for this! Im ready to have more energy, look better and feel better. Good luck to you and to everyone. For those of you who are serious and want to give this your best shot, feel free to add me as a friend. Its about support and accountability.

I'm back after 92 days of quitting. My new goal is shared by my BFF and we're going to go to Sandals Bahamas with our hubbys when we hit our goals. It should take us 1.8 years to lose 95lbs, but I need small, slow changes. Otherwise it's too hard to maintain and I quit.
I'm drinking coffee now, too. :-)
