So, I found out about MFP many, many months ago when my mother joined and started pushing me to join as well.
I kinda didn't want to, I had this whole "I can do this by myself I don't need encouragement blah blah" attitude.
Well I finally did join, used the site for a while, and then stopped.
A little history, at my highest, back in February, I weighed in at 260.
Scary, right?
I had a terrible fear of reaching 300 pounds, I even had nightmares about it.
So I decided I HAD to get serious; I got down to 225, relaxed a bit, and then got stupid again.
I didn't gain anything back mind you, I've just been chilling in the 220's for a few months now.
Thing is I'm getting highly annoyed with it now. I wanna get down into the 100's again, damnit!
So I think coming here is the best thing to help me right now. ^^
I DO need encouragement, and friends on here to help me along the way. Plus I'd love to help others as well.
So, yeah, hi everyone!

Yeah, I have to keep reminding myself I haven't done horrible. XD I may have stopped with the losing for a while, but at least I've kept what I've lost off! ^^0 -
Oh hai there. Welcome back! You've done amazingly so far! I used mfp for a while last year, lost a bit, stopped using, and gained it back plus 10lbs! So I'm back again, currently down 3 lbs which is a start I suppose
