Heaviest Weight= 332.2lbs 1/26/2020
Goal weight = 140-150lbs
Got down to 278.8 on 8/2/2020
Everything in my area shut down in April 2020 so I was able to maintain for a while but my meetings were cancelled and the gym shut down and my depression got really bad and the weight piled on and now I can’t get it back off.
Today’s weight 331.63 -
Welcome to the group, @kerelford ! Getting back to MFP is a great start. Logging food and tracking weight on whatever schedule you want to will help on this journey. Wishing you success!
Happy December @dutchgirl188 and @jennigerding19 - Welcome back!2 -

Dec 4: 207.1 - Not sure what's happening here. I've worked out every day, and even if there was some cake in there, it was cake in place of a meal, not in addition to the meal. I'm not stressing it. The number will come down again.3 -

You can do this, @cory17 ! I was at least successful in not having pizza last night. The struggle is hard -- especially when you just want to have something easy and satisfying. But you've got this. Just look at all your success so far!0

Just compared wt 2023 wt log with 2022; up 10# since this time last year. Time to get this runaway weight train stopped and reversed.
Heaviest: 178 two or three years ago, then got wt down into the 150's by the summer of 2021. Gained back into the 160's last year and held it there until this summer. Slow regain happened. End of June I was 166, by end of August I was 174.8. Have been bouncing between that number and 172's all fall. Evening snacking/eating is my nemesis.
Anyway, here's I go ... { resisting urge to say "again" }
