What is different this time in your weight loss efforts than in the past: I feel more in control this time. I had already lost around 50lbs the first time I tried, I've gained a little bit since then, but I've mainly plateaued due to returning to my bad eating habits. I hope I won't return again.

Biggest hurdle to overcome in weightloss: I have a very emotional and psychological relationship with food. I feel like I can control my happiness with food, and I've found it doesn't work...but that never stopped me from taking it out my sadness, with even more food. I feel like if I get through something difficult, like a bad day at work or an argument with a friend, I deserve a treat. Sometimes it can be shopping but 90% of the time, it's food. I'm still dealing with this, and I think that will be a long time coming.
Following any specific plan: "free" Ideal Protein plan (no packets or premade food except for shakes)
What is different this time in your weight loss efforts than in the past: I started regaining too much weight, and I launched myself into this new one with two other coworkers who are going through the same thing. I think having a partner or two will help me, but I am still looking for more support.
Anything else you would like to share with us: I'm feeling really good about this new round with myself, and I'd love to make some new friends.
