Hi Eliana!! So happy to hear about your approaching wedding!! Congrats.

Down three pounds is a wonderful start. Learn from the past (however, it's over and we can't change it), prepare for the future & take your eating one day at a time. Plan, plan and plan some more. I know you CAN do this!

I was just thinking about you the other day... so much so I went in search of your 'most recent post' and it was a while ago. I was hoping there was a new flame, and I'm glad that it came with a wedding too!! Congrats! That's oh-so-exciting and you TOTALLY deserve it. You deserve so much happiness!

Welcome back. I hope I speak for a lot of us when I say: We missed you!

Awe, we loved you for it! See how many of us you touched with your sweet, enthusiastic, encouraging posts? I definitely understand needing to pull it back for a season or posting less this time around, but you were very much appreciated and missed

I most definitely remember you and think you're so inspiring! It sounds like you are back on track the healthy way, which can absolutely win over chocolate! I also got to goal (for a few months only) and have regained some. It's a learning experience, but the important thing is that here, you are always amongst supportive people. Oh, and congrats! I hope you'll post some wedding dress photos.

Back, Eliana! on your upcoming Wedding! That should help motivate You. I've gained weight last year too. But we can lose this weight.

Weird, too that we're still right around the same weight and regained about the same amount! Unfortunately, I am not engaged - it would probably inconvenience and annoy DH I stopped losing when I had to homeschool my oldest last spring and lost focus on my own goals. I hadn't been on the boards in quite awhile and just happened to spot your post when I went to see if there were any good snarky comments about the latest Biggest Loser

Ah, The Biggest Loser! I'm happy for a new season. I didn't get attached to any of the players last season. I have a few favorites already this time. I haven't watched all of this week's yet but I love the pair-ups.
