So... I have to first admit that I was embarrassed to come back again. I had failed at getting weight back off... I don't know how many times- and every time I mess up I would leave this page--- huge mistake.

I decided this time to get myself on track and then think about returning. I've list 10 pounds and I'm not struggling. I know it's a long journey but I'm here for the long run again- no more disappearing when I have a bad day!

My story:
A few years ago I found this site and list 75 pounds! I was found great- I changed my life, I was running everyday and eating amazingly nutritious food. Then... Long story short, I got a divorce. I ate myself crazy, quickly gaining back 50 pounds or more.

I gained the rest back plus 40 after meeting someone new- and having a baby. We've struggled financially for sometime- which resulted in a lot of cheap tucks food and a depression of sorts. I live thousands of miles from my family and my fiancé was struggling with addiction problems all on top of everything.

Thank The Lord we have cone out on the other end fully in one piece. My baby is now almost 3, my fiancé and I are building a better stronger us and I'm eating healthy! I don't have to work a million hours a week. I have a tiny. But more time and biggest of all--- I'm on track!

I've lost just ten of the 130 I hope to lose- but I'm doing it- and I refuse to let my emotions control me.

I have returned with a new user name- formally known as fauxtini- and I hope to reunite with more old friends and make done new on this journey.

This page was and is key to me staying on track- so I hope I'm welxoned back with a smile-- lol I won't leave you again!!!

End of rambling.

I can't even count how many times I have tried and failed with my weight loss efforts... it's kind of pathetic to want something soooo bad and constantly trip up, so I too am hoping this will keep me going this time!

Welcome back, and you can DO IT!!!!

Halo:
I totally know what you mean- its hard- but I've done it before. I keep telling myself that. It's just crazy- I know how I feel when I'm healthy--- so you'd think id stick with it.

With the addition of a full time job and a kid and supporting my husbands side business--- I'm struggling to find time!!!!

Definitely! I lost a good 50 pounds and I let it all pile back again! It's not like I don't know *how* to lose weight, it just.. I'm not entirely sure.. doesn't really happen! lol

Busy schedules are tough! Granted I don't have a kid or a full time job, but juggling school, a part time job, and helping care for my year old brother is a tough one, so I can relate to the time aspect!
