I will definitely be back, but it's just not happening for me right now. Low self-esteem and low metabolism/motivation issues are keeping me back. I'll be back in the game soon. If you have time, keep your thoughts and prayers with me in hopes that I might regain my focus soon.

I've been there many times myself. I have a couple of real motivating factors that have me really focused on reaching my goal. One is getting to
a point I can take my kids to the pool at Disney and not confusing them for sea world. The other is trying to figure out if taking pressure off my back will keep me from having another back surgery in December. The main thing is just not to let yourself go and gain back what you've already accomplished. Even when I'm on vacation next month, I plan on spending 30-45 minutes a day on the treadmill.
