I this the above is spamming I've seen this huge block post over and over ...

You're welcome to report my posts if you feel they're spam. You'll find the flag button at the bottom of my posts if you're on a PC or the three dots in the top right hand corner if you're on the app/mobile site. I recommend choosing Report and then Advertising since I don't fall under the category of bot-style spam.

You should check out the links, though. They're all great posts here on MFP that are useful for new members. Most of them are included in the stickied Most Helpful Posts "must reads" at the top of the forums. I've just taken to reposting them since so many people miss 'em.

Hello,
I've gained 15 lbs since starting work at my corporate office job 3 years ago. Seems that every time I make progress I bounce back so easily....hoping interacting here can inspire me to do more to improve my health. I'm in my 20s but feel years past my age (in a bad way unfortunately)

Hi Donna,
I feel your pain. My senior year of college I lost about 25 pounds using MFP and felt great. I started working at a corporate job about a year after that and managed to put back on what I lost and probably 10 more. I am restarting my journey because I also feel way to old for being 27!

@donnahutchis and @Danilea7 - I see your 15 and raise you another 45! Retired from the military - > gained 60 lbs -> Started MFP, lost 40 -> Got a (small) injury -> gained 25 back (recovered quickly but went back to my bad habits, not logging, not paying attention to what I was eating, etc.). "Resetting" today!
