This is far from my first time at the weight loss rodeo. And last time, I had more success than I have ever had before - I lost over 60 lbs. But then I gained back almost 60 lbs. I was so sure I had it figured out that time and I wasn't going to ever go back to being 250+ lbs.
Didn't quite get it right that time, but I am starting again, and this time, I'm trying to think long term and short term. I've found a way that works well for me to take weight off - got the short term covered. Now I just need to build on that and figure out how to KEEP weight off, long term.
I know I'm far from alone in following this pattern and gaining back most or all of what I lost (sometimes more!).
Let's share what we've learned from that experience, and why and how we can try to make sure this time really will be different!
