    You need to remember what made you start last time, what was your motivation? Set some small attainable goals. Like say you will exercise 4 times a week or you will eat more veggies. You have to really want to make the changes too.

    There is no horse, or track or wagon - you have to make changes that you are willing and able to stick to, or else you'll just go back to your old habits, and reagain all you lost.

    Maybe start by just weighing and logging what you eat, not trying to limit calories at first.

    Good luck to you as you once again embark on your weight loss voyage, Mr BigGuy! Keep at it, you're only beat when you quit.

    I did that too. Logged everything and had a huge amount of success. I kind of stopped caring and logging for the past couple of months and since the middle of March I've already put back on 10 lbs. But i'm getting back into it now. I've been over on my calories everyday that I have logged for the past week since I started again but at least I am logging (and seeing how much food is too much) and I have gotten back into a fairly solid work out routine. You just have to start doing it again. Remember how good it feels. Change your habits :) We can do it!

    Maybe start with a small deficit til you get back in the habit of logging and if you're like me once I start seeing losses that's all the motivation I need:) Plus checking in everyday and reading some success stories and possibly get in a group that checks in daily or weekly to help keep you on track:) Maybe a buddy irl that'll join you in your wl journey:)
