Don't think of it as a failure think of it as a starting pint for a new beginning :)

You will find your routine again! It's so hard to draw a balance between healthy choices and not being too restrictive, it's so easy to cross that line. Welcome back and I totally support your decision to take time for you!

No guilt, no shame. Just a fresh start and you're in the right place and mindframe for it, just need to get started on it. As you said look at what you've already accomplished, and you know the recipe for success. Looking forward to seeing you get those pounds back off.

Most of us have been there. I know that I have learned that I can't do this without tracking what I eat; believe me I've done the yo-yo thing for a few years now. It always starts with thinking that straying a bit isn't going to make any difference, and before long, I've put it back on. However, you never go so far that you can't get back. In fact, I get more support on here when I screw up, than when I am Mr. Perfect. :D Probably because I need it. Duh.

You are right - it is safe and no judgment! Take a few steps forward and start to do what worked for you in the past!

Kiki, your words helped me today. So many times in the past I lost weight only to gain it back when I stopped logging what I ate and going to meetings This time I hope it is different for me. I love this site ! It has all I need to help me be successful. Welcome back !

Awww, thanks everyone for the great comments, words of encouragement, and support! I already feel that I'm back just by heaving ate well this past week. Still stressed at work, but making time to pack a lunch or take good snacks. While not all options are next essayist "healthy", they are still within my range and I'm not doing binging and am eating in moderation. Did some exercise, but schedule has blocked a little bit. Am planning on going to the gym today and have a positive attitude - a lot of thanks to you all!!

It's been a long time, cuz. Love u! I'm in the same boat. Gained a BUNCH back. Went to doctor today and I have to go back on blood pressure meds which I ditched 18 months ago when I lost the 50 lbs. Grrr! I'm so mad at myself. Between the high BP and feeling like crap in my clothes, I need to kick y butt into gear and get back to my healthy habits. I'm really struggling with self discipline and excuses (stress, too busy, etc.). :(
