I have so much admiration for all of you-I haven't found this the easiest diet to do a second time and you are all doing great-and with some real challenges to covercome.
I'm in the same boat, lost about 15 pounds 3 years ago, then gained it all back this past year. Just couldn't re-commit (joined WW for the 50th time-that didn't work). FINALLY this weekend reached the bottom point of total horror and have started back on Phase 1 Monday. So far, doing okay. I tend to be a visitor to the "Home of the 90%" thread-things like using Mio and Crystal Light as they were approved when I started IP, although they are not now. Trying to do this on my own, but seeing you all here, I know I'm not alone anymore!
The mantra I have in my mind is that when I reach goal again, I can reintegrate my treats-but with the lessons I've learned from going through the program and a failed maintenance. Also, remembering the awesome way it felt to be in a size 4 (never in my life before).
LET'S DO THIS!!!!
