    I consider myself flaky. I..... Can't seem to get the consistent part of this. But I am still losing, have been at it this time almost A YEAR!!

    I'm open for friends that can help and be helped. Just a forewarning, though, I am very interactive and don't collect friends.

    Oh I feel your pain... I did so well for so long, then went through s difficult time and gained 20-30 pounds back . I am miserable and so mad at myself. Sugar and carbs are my killers along with emotional eating.

    In 2013 I placed 2nd for my age group in a bikini competition after losing around 40 pounds. I've almost gained all of it back. I've been eating emotionally and I relapsed after 7 years of sobriety. I haven't had a drink in 18 months now and I'm finally finding motivation to get back on track with my health. I'm aiming for a more balanced approach than what I did to get competition ready. My goal is more general: to feel energetic and fit into some of my smaller clothes again. I'm nearly 40 and I don't want to let it get out of hand like I did before. I just want to achieve some balance and make long-term, healthy lifestyle changes. Pizza and depression are my number one offenders. I just wanted to chime in and say that you are all in my thoughts and I can relate to what you've all shared.

    I am so glad you regained your sobriety. My heart sank when I read about your relapse but was overjoyed when I saw its been 18 months. .
