Default New All Over Again

I hope it's okay to post this here. If there's a reintroduction thread, I'll happily move this.

I joined 3FC over a year ago when I started on a weight loss journey, and lost about 60 pounds in about 6 months. But then I stopped visiting here and other weight loss support sites, and at the same time fell back on old habits, and then it was the holidays, and before I knew it I was gaining the weight back. Eventually I gained back almost 30 pounds, or half of what I'd lost. I was totally bummed about that.

But! I've recently started back on a healthier eating plan and exercising again, and have lost 10 pounds. Today I went on a 30 minute walk, and as I was walking I thought, I should really get back on 3FC again. So I'm reintroducing myself here, and hope that this time my diet will stick! I have a lot of weight to lose, so I know this is going to be a long-term commitment.

Welcome back! Just remember that this is a journey and it isn't always about the scale going down every week. You are finding your way. You should be tremendously proud of that 40 lb loss. Don't worry about the other 20 you lost before. You will lose it again, and then some! I'm glad walking helps you clear your mind. Just keep it up and let time pass, and you CAN succeed on this journey.
