A wee bit late to the start of the party, but so happy I ran across this! I'm in too! Lost 40lbs a few years ago with MFP, and gained back most of it. At least I believe in the success of making this commitment
especially together!

I'm just joining. Been at this thing for a long time...3yrs. I've got the workout part down. My eating is what kills me. Got down to 150 but have slowly put the wt back on. Ten of it over the holidays!!!! Ughhhhh. I'm so mad at myself for that but I've also had a foot injury that I'm trying to recover from so that played a big part. There's no excuse for my diet though! So here it goes AGAIN! I need some place to be accountable. So thanks in advance.
