Hello
Hi All. I've used MFP successfully in the past but I've fallen into bad habits, regained the weight and need to restart. I'm glad I found this group. It seems like we're all in the same boat.

morning body vs. night body
I don't know if this is true for anyone else, but my body changes drastically from morning to night. I know that naturally, your morning body will be lighter after not eating for many hours, but I hate how my night body is sooo different.
