Lost 80% of my goal but didn't maintain it... Looking to beg

My name is Sharon. I am 30 years old and married to a wonderful man.
I weighed 250 lbs in 2006. By 2009, I was down to 165. (I was almost at my goal weight.)
Then, I went back to school. I got my bachelors but gained back nearly 50 lbs doing it.
I have spent nearly a year kicking myself for letting this happen, but it hasn't made the weight go away.
Calorie counting, encouragement and exercise are what I need to help me get back on track!
I am looking forward to getting to know the members of this community.

    Did you do weight training? Lifting weights and running has been key in me keeping my weight off. Muscles will burn fat just by being there and being used.
