Me too life gets the best of us. 

You've always been the queen of maintenance. I'll bet you're not too far off base. 

💕 

We are all human!!! 😊 

Don’t give up! You got this! ❤️❤️ 

I'm glad your here Melissatwa  

Doesn’t matter how many times we restart. Stopping is the problem. Here to cheer you on and support in any way I can Melissa. ❤️🙏🏻 

hey girl! been thinking of you. ❤ 

Sweet Melissa, starting over is always a good decision. You can certainly do this. 💖💪 

It's good to hear from you! Life happens, hope everything turns out okay. I've been thinking about you because I have a road trip to Washington planned for next month. It's a long drive 

Good to hear from you! You've been missed💜 Life happens and I hope whatever has happened has resolved itself! 💜💜🙏🙏 

To reduce the need for will power, develop healthy habits. One of them should be always honestly logging your food even on the bad days. One at a time, swap unhealthy foods for healthy substitutes. One extreme example is, you can stuff yourself with celery and still lose weight. I indulge in popcorn and Halo Top ice cream as lower calorie alternatives as food that I love. 

What a beautiful blessing to feel the support of "old" and dear partners on this journey. caraken, we can do this! larilyn, thank you, but it has been a while since I felt like I was doing all that well, I need to lose about 10. Stupid food! How I wish I didn't love it so much. Thank you, dear Kat! bus, Thank you for your kind words! I feel like I have dropped away on so many levels and I miss people. My life is just so crazy and I have so little breathing space. I am going to try really hard to be more involved and I am going to try really hard to drop this stupid weight! Arkiehuntress, so good to see you... yes, we are aren't we? Thank you, ktadros. Thank you, buenita! I am glad to be here! Wifey! Goodness life... what a problem. hahah. Thank you for your always being a support... I need it! Princess! Thank you, dear. Talk to you soon. Sweet Becky! I am so tired of trudging alone on this journey. We do need each other! My home is packed to the gunnels with my wonderful people, but it isn't the kind of support I need! :) Fritzy! I hope you have a nice trip up? I just got back from a quick trip up to BC. 16 hours of driving in a few days. But it is worth it! Dear Diana! Thank you for your care. I have missed you so much! Good thoughts, Penderg. Thank you! 

You know us old die hards!! We keep coming back.  

I wish you balance and strength! 

it's always a work in progress Melissa, up or down we go but recognizing and dealing with the up before it gets too far is key to long term management...hope the reset goes well for you! 

Welcome back! I too am back and starting over! Hey Steven Lloyd, great to see you too! 

Bear! Yep, we know it is a good place to be. I was just counting it up and I have been here for nearing 5 years already. I've maintained most of my loss. I am so grateful for this community, so that when I need some accountability and support, I sure know where to come! erika, thank you so much! Steven!! How wonderful to hear from you! I was just up in BC this weekend. I hope you are doing well. My family from Calgary were out. I hope you get lots of rain. Yes, knowing when to deal with the ups is a problem. I think I am fine and then those lifelong habits kick in and I know I am so weak. Thank you debra! All we can do is keep trudging and working toward our goals. I have the humility to know that maintaining for years isn't easy... I have been. Now I have to kick into gear and do some losing, which is a real pain! :)  

Here to support you in any way I can. Selfishly, happy to see you back ❤️ 

SherryeB, I don't think there is a selfish bone in your little body! I've missed so many here. I've missed your deer and garden and beautiful decorations and news of shopping trips and yummy food and book club. I don't know how much time I'll have to be here, my world is so stuffed, but I need to be here! ❤️
