Hello from a returning 3FC
 

In 2007 I was very active on this board and went on to lose 137 pounds. I kept it off until 2012 when an emotional hurricane hit our family, and I have proceeded to put back on every pound and then some. I know the support I received here in 2007 was absolutely a lifeline for me, and so here I am again hoping to find the same support that helped me lose last time.

The difference this time is I am having some real health issues cropping up because of my weight, which puts a scarier twist to my story this time around. I'm hoping I can find someone (or several) to whom I can be accountable and also be able to "vent" when the tough days show up - and I know they will from my past experience.

Here's wishing you all much success on your respective journeys.

Hi and welcome back... I think I joined after you left

All the best with resuming this journey

Welcome back Ritzy :)

Welcome back! I was here when you were, but starting to slow down and stop posting by then. I came back here just last week. I'm afraid I don't actually remember you, but like I said, I was winding down by then and only barely posting. I also lost - 100 lbs - then I just kind of quit. I kept it off for a bit but then, also like you, I had a lot of emotional, family-type issues and it came back on. Well, most of it. I kept about 20 off. Not really enough to make a dent at 300+.

But we're back Ritzy. And we can do it again. We did it once, after all, so we know it's doable.

Onward and Downward! :goodscale
