    Hi everyone!! I am new to joining groups on MFP I have been a member for a long time, but have not used the boards before. I really need some motivation to get back to finding my MOJO again. I have fallen down and am having diffuculty getting back up!! I once lost 85 lbs with WW, reached my goal and have endured some life roadblocks that have gotten in the way causing me to gain back almost 30 lbs.

    I went ahead and logged my weigh in... up 6 lbs in 2 weeks (I didn't weigh in last week). So, aparently my TOM plus the passing of my friend hurt my weight loss progress. I'm pretty discouraged because I still tried to stay focused, and I still exercised and watched what I ate, but aparently not good enough. I walked my son to school yesterday and I went to the gym last night, so hopefully I can do better this week.
