Good morning!

Over the past 2 years I have managed to lose 80 pounds and keep it off (for the most part!) but I found this last Christmas totally derailed me and I find myself slipping back into old habits (eating fast food, not working out, etc!) can anyone else relate?? I'd love to find some motivational buddies who are also struggling!0u7axwuqzzh5.jpg

    Wow, well done OP!

    Just think of how far you've come, how hard you've worked and keep on truckin' on!
    You can do it!

    Do you want to go back where you were? That's your motivation. You KNOW what you needed to do. Set a plan and follow it!

    Me. I know I'm 5'2" and weigh 313. Diabetic, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, chronic sinus infections. Smh. I gotta get these weight demons off of me.

    Like they say.. a moment on the lips is a lifetime on the hips. Is it really worth it to fall off the wagon? You have come so far, don't let a few slip ups discourage you! Look at the big picture. I'm sure you will find a way
