Well, after a 2 year vacation, I'm back. I wish it was to just pick up where I left off, but no such luck. I got down to a great weight! I was feeling great! I was active. Then something happened. I lost track of myself. Too many, "oh well it's only this one time" cheat days. That coupled with buying a boat last summer, much of my free time is spent on the lake. Not working out. Maybe drinking a few beverages.
So I'm back. I'm here to get my *kitten* together and rock out again! I'm here for accountability! I'm here to meet like minded people with the drive and ambition to feed off of! Let's roll!!!

    I thought this was going to be yet another "what am I doing wrong" thread. Glad it wasn't. Welcome back and best of luck!

    HAHAHA! Oh geez, I know exactly what I'm doing wrong. I'm just back for the motivation and honestly, the people. There are a lot of crazies here (the good kind) mixed with sweet hearted, genuine and overall great folks! Why I left is nothing more than a lack of effort to keep up :)

    Brutal, right?! It's so easy to trick yourself into believing that you'll easily pick up where you left off. Yeeah, not quite haha

    Welcome back!! I too am just returning after a 3 yr Vaca lol!! Really, it's a similar story as yours. I'm also back for accountability and see what it is I need to tweak in my diet. For the most part it's solid, but after the past few days. I can see where I need to make some changes. Best of luck to ya!!

    Welcome back from me as well :3

    Like you, I'm also trying to get bacink shape after 2 years of "vacation". I'm not sure if I'm like minded, because my goal is to get slimmer first and afterwards gain so much muscles, so that I can eat as much as before *muahahaha...cough cough..haha..*

    Anyway, I wish you good luck. And if you like: please add me
