Sorry that you find yourself sad inside... been there for sure. You're
taking an awesome step in just acknolwedging what's going on and assessing
the situation! I also recently went back to the meetings after being out
for over 6 months and gaining all but 2 lbs. back. It's a hard place to be
emotionally, but seriously, once I went back to a meeting, I felt so
relieved and refocussed. For me, the accountability is really important, as
well as the weekly time to reassess how the week went, what I did and did
not do, etc... as well as I get really motivated by being around others on
the same journey as I am and who can speak into these struggles I face and
truly know what I'm talking about!

You'll be ok Joe! Nice to meet you & keep posting! : )
smiles,
monica

After a solid year of WW and 67 lbs of successful weight loss, making
goal, and becoming lifetime I quit attending monthly meetings. Last
few months I've put on 15 lbs and am now above goal again for the
first time in months. I finally stepped on a scale after a big dinner
tonight. I freaked. My scale's not very accurate but I from what it
reads that I've GOT to be 15 lbs over. Nearly cried. I'm a little
panicked I think. Haven't even been in this NG for...I don't know...6
months. Not sure what to do. Back to WW and weekly meetings? Just
get back on program without meetings? Can I trust myself to do it
without the accountability.

I WILL NOT GO BACK TO BEING FAT AGAIN!
