in Introduce Yourself
I lost 23 pounds on MFP last year. I had accomplished that by July, but after that I got back on the sugary snack wagon and by December I had gained back 13 of those pounds. I am back and ready to do this once and for all. I am trying really hard not to be sad about my backslide. At least I didn't let years go by and my pitfalls are still fresh in my mind. I am going to work hard to avoid those pitfalls this year. I felt amazing last summer and I want to feel that way again!

    Hey, you can totally do this! You're still in credit by 10lb though so don't be too sad. Good luck with it - I'm sure you'll do great :happy:

    Me too! December was not a good month for me. Ready to start the new year off with a new attitude and an even bigger weight loss. :)

    I too did the same thing, I lost 26 pounds last year, I haven't gained it all back (only 15 pounds of it) but I am back and going to work really really hard this year.

    We have almost the same MFP history! I lost 20 lbs between last January and July, went on a hiatus (due to stress at a job that I have since left) and gained 11 lbs back. Just started back up a few days ago so feel free to add me!!!

    Anyone on this string can feel free to add me too :) Yayyyy second timers!!
