Hi Madeline! Are you using all the tools available on this site? Are you logging your food, drinking your water and tracking your weight and inches? I had lost about 35 lbs. and then got stuck for about six months. I would gain and lose the same 5 lbs. for that entire 6 months. In Jan. I decided enough was enough!!! I started a 90 day challenge, set a goal for that 90 days and decided that weight plus was going to be gone forever!! I have lost 9 lbs. and 5.5 inches since Jan. 2nd and want to lose another 16 lbs. by April 2nd (the end of the challenge). I have a goal poster in my bathroom which hopefully will keep me on track.

Madeline, I feel like I am in the exact same boat as you! I started the last year at 167, lost and gained all through the spring, over the summer finally lost 17 lbs, only to make my way back up to 157 over the fall! It's very frustrating.... But I'm trying to turn that into positive energy/motivation. I'm tired of working so hard and then losing all of my efforts due to laziness. I don't want my work to be in vain, so every time I think about straying too far from the path I think about that frustration! But don't forget that occasionally you deserve breaks or little treats. If you're too strict on yourself, you'll never make it.
Feel free to add me! I'm new here too.
