Started a while back and got down to 182 from 206. Weighed myself Sunday the 24th, and I was at 189. I have been off the diet for a bit over a month. Started back up today. Will I ever get into the 170s? Anyway... Has that happened to anyone else on here? I came back to the site for motivation to stick to my diet and exercise plan.

    I lost over 15lbs last year around August and I gained all of it back. Now, I found my fitness pal that really helps. I have heard people say losing the weight is the easy part, maintaining is the hard part. I really think its really mentally. I know you will get back on track. Everyone learns differently, just learn from your mistake and learn to forgive yourself. Look at it as a new beginning or new start.:wink:

    Yeah, I had lost 18 pounds when I weighed last Friday, and I weighed this morning and I was almost three pounds heavier again :( .... But I've eaten horribly and not worked out hardly at all, so I know what the problem was. It's just really discouraging to see the number go up instead of down....

    This has happened to me several times and it sucks! I had to teach myself that this is a lifelong change, not a race. Crap happens. You just have to pick yourself yo and go on. Sounds like you did just that! Sometimes it feels like you are taking 2 steps forward and 5 steps back. Focus on the steps toward. They get you through! Good luck!
