  • Welcome back and good luck on your journey!!
    You can do this!!!
  • Well you're obviously not alone. =)

    I too am back... again. I was about 35lbs from goal weight when a lot of things in my life changed. I ballooned back up and now here I go again.

    When you lose the weight you tell yourself you're never going to look back, but it's so easy for it to creep back on. You tell yourself oh it's only 5lbs, I'll get back on track soon, then that 5 turns into 15 then 25 and the next thing you know it's 50.

    A lot of us feel your pain. Good luck to you, and welcome back. =)

    I could have written your entire post. You're so right about ignoring the numbers creeping up until the damage is done. I'm slinking back in here with my tail between my legs after a long absence as well. At least we're all in good company.
  • Welcome back!!
    I'm back again too, it's good to be back at it again!
  • Welcome back and good strength. There is a thread in this section of the forum called "Regainers Regaining Control" that I started when I set my mind to kicking my regain as well. I hope some of you will pop in there. I try to check in every day to get fired up.
  • I remember you too, Tracey. I am also back with a big regain, but I am back on track and ready to take it off and get to goal. Come join us on the Regainers thread. We can all help each other.
  • Well, time to come back here, too. I am both glad and sorry to see the familiar faces.

    Thank goodness for the chance to start over, and for these boards.
  • Welcome back... I find when I have a hiatus from here, I gain and come back. I'm going to stick around though, 23 lbs to go. You did it once, you can do it again!
  • welcome back!
  • I am a bit envious. I have never lost a large amount of weight before but you ladies know how its done, what works for you and your body should remember the journey.
