I hadn't been here for a few months, because I was busy and doing quie well with my diet on my own.... but I went on vaction at the end of September. I ate whatever I wanted for the whole week. Then my best friend and gym buddy moved to the other side of the country. I fell off the wagon. I was eating junk and only going to the gym about once a week. I only lost a few pounds in the last month and a half.

Now I'm heaving myself back up on the wagon. I've lost 76lbs and I have been feeling good, and then I see a recent picture of myself and think... god I'm still so big. I need to do this, but I just feel so alone in my struggle. I'm back here now because I need people who get this.

welcome back!!! good luck with everything

70 lbs is a A LOT already ... awesome job

Well I have lost 4 lbs and I thought about the idea today too "Oh but I am still so big" Wow 76 lbs...how cool is that!! Good 4 you! Today I am trying to do baby steps...and keep putting one foot in front of the other...today I read somewhere on here I read something like this...Being overweight is hard and eating healthy is hard...choose your hard. Hummmmmm

76 lbs!! that's AMAZING! I think everyone has fell off the wagon some time, you just have to know when to pic yourself back up and go again.

76 lbs is great!! Just take it one day at a time, you will meet your goals, I know you can. The most important part is that you are getting back on track. On someone's signature on here it says, "Persistence, not perfection" That is so true

Welcome back, well done on your success so far and good luck with the next leg of your journey.

Great job! We all hit bumps along the way, whether it be gaining a few pounds, a two week (or longer) binge period, or otherwise. But we're all rooting for you. Don't let this bump change your feelings about how well you have been doing!

wow, congrats on falling off the wagon and STILL losing a few pounds. I'd say that shows you've truly incorporated some good habits.

I know what you mean that it feels good to come here and share all the ups and downs of the process with people who get it.

don't forget that you've lost 76 lbs!! that's an amazing gift to give yourself. congrats!! (to repeat myself!)

Please don't give up! What you did is incredible and just think...your worst days now are better than your best days before you lost those 76 lbs.....so just focus on your huge accomplishment and let that inspire you to continue on this journey toward your goal! I don't think there is one person who is under the GOAL section that was perfect all along....the key is that they got themselves back on track on time and you are very capable of just that and more!

You've done amazing thus far, don't let anything keep you from succeeding at your goals..you CAN do this!
