Hi, this is my second time around. I met my goal weight last year and have managed to gain almost all of it back. I am going to start fresh tomorrow. I am very disappointed and discouraged with myself. I am looking for friends who have the same issue, lose and gain back. Hoping to cheer each other on to get the weight back off and KEEP it off.

    Glad you are back, the one thing about weight, you may find it but you can always lose it. Best wishes

    Friend request sent. I'm a desk jockey too, and I've been weight cycling my whole adult life. I'm a few weeks in to what I think is the right track, so let's help each other out!

    Good luck this time around. I think we all pretty much have lost/gained weight and have been totally discouraged with ourselves. I don't have any friends, so if any of you wish to add me, please do. :flowerforyou:

    Oh!! Same here! I need friends too. I was so happy last time that I just totally let myself get back into bad habits little bit by little bit. I started again 3 weeks ago and need friends! Pls add me.

    Hi, I just joined this past Thursday too. And I was hoping to also find a friend or 2 to add for online support, so you could add me too!

    I'm a little shy and nervous about posting and putting myself out there, but I've found that loosing weight without support just means I loose interest quickly and give up. I did loose over 80 lbs about 4 years ago with the support of a local agency, but when it went out of business and my support group was gone, I've gained it all back (and a little more!) . This time I'm going to start slowly and hopefully I'll be more willing to stick with it.
