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

    I've taken several breaks from here.. lost some gained more, lost more gained some.. it's always been up and down and I've never actually reached ANY of my goals that I've set. Small or large ones.. soo I'm back again with fresh motivation and need people like me who get it.. not those who have already reached their goals.. Feel free to add me.

    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 :)

    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. :-)

    PS. I am now weighing the same amount I did when I was 9 months pregnant with a 10lb baby. Except now I am not pregnant. Just tired.

    I'm back after being gone with a knee injury. Three surgeries later, I've gained the weight back I lost in 2012-2013. Looking forward to getting back into the swing of things, and it starts with logging everything. We can do this! Feel free to add me!

    I am back at it too!! I've been logging steady for 5 days now...Yay!! Consistency is my problem, if only I could keep it going...I've been using MFP for maybe 4 years off and on, but this year is "no holds barred!" Positive attitude and a new relationship with food is forming one day at a time.

    Yup that would be me. I am back, but this time I am really into the exercise and mixing it up! Now it's time to go 'beastmode' in the kitchen too.

    I took two years off- lost weight- and found it plus about 5 extra on top of that. I hate seeing the scale over 150 and was shocked not thinking I'd let myself get back to there and saw 153.4. I cried that morning. Then I logged onto this app, started tracking & chatting, and am down to 149.8. I'm hoping to drop at least 20 lbs before June and love this sight for all the positivity that's on here!!! It's not easy for any of us and that's why we are here- to support and cheerlead :)

    I'm back after 4 years. After going to the doc last week and seeing the number on the scale, I realized I needed to get off my *kitten* again and start eating right. :/
