    Welcome back! It is not easy but you can do it!
  • I rededicated myself to this same journey yesterday!

    I'm trying not to dwell on my past mistakes, but learn from them.

    Wishing you the best, you are worth the effort.

    Congrats for starting over again ! You know you can do it because you have done it already once before. =) Says a lot about your determination that you came back here to get the job done.
    I have only been on here for 3 moths, but it has changed me for the better in so many ways. Little things, too~ like being able to walk the entire Cincinnati Zoo without getting winded, and enjoying the exercise !

    Glad to see you here. I'm so excited when I see people who have lost weight and had a struggle and returned for the good fight. That may sound silly, but you know exactly where we're all coming from. You aren't losing a tad here and a bit there... you're a man on a mission! Good luck to ya :flowerforyou:

    Welcome back, you know you can do it. What do you think led to the weight going back on again? If it is something you can share, please do, so we can learn how to maintain our weight loss.

    It's great that you're back here. I, too, started back a couple of months ago and I'm glad I did. Nice to see other people who are struggling with the same issues to be healthier and there's good support and ideas here.

    Kick some butt buddy!!

    I greatly appreciate the kind comments and words of support. I have no doubt that I can get back to 191 like I did before and probably in pretty short order (reducing sugar and soda alone was all I really had to do the first time). Best of luck to everyone else on the weight loss journey.
