Yes, but it's called life. If the road was straight and easy, everyone would be healthy, rich and happy. We are only human and the point of falling down is to accept ourselves as flawed human beings and then to be kind as we pick ourselves up and start again. That number on the scale is arbitrary - all it does is tell you how much of an effect gravity has on your body. However, you can use it as a gauge to tell you how far along your journey you are and how determined you need to be to get to your destination. If you are scared of the number on the scale, then switch to the tape measure for a few months and measure your progress that way until you're ready to get back on the scale. Never use guilt as motivation - it just makes you feel more crap about falling down. Rather focus forward and create the results you want - nevermind where you've been; focus on where you are going. Dust yourself off and keep going. It's really okay 👊 

shit happens....... life happens......... don't beat yourself up about it..... re-group and re-focus as mant times as you have to, just dont give up on youself 

Daily, stay strong 

So many times I can’t even count! It’s normal! So so normal! Please don’t beat yourself up. You can do it! Just don’t give up on yourself. 

Happens all the time. The weird thing is sometimes you actually lose weight. Best part is you know where you are at so now you can start working on it again. 

Am just bouncing from a month of the same, myself. I think it's important to not be too hard on yourself or push yourself, because it ends being counter-productive. Take the lessons learnt and adjust. Knowing what the "damage" was also helped me get my head back in it. We love and learn, right?  

It happens to all of us ,, I’ve been off the wagon for a long time ,,slowing trying to get back on ,,strongs keep going 

Hi Bitsy, I think we have all experienced this - especially over these winter months. Try to not fall in to a “diet trap” - choose a lifestyle that is sustainable and that you can enjoy - I think the worst thing you can do is fall in to a yo-yo trap now in particular xxx you got this 

happens all the time, Maybe your wagon is a little too strict? Whats the cause for the cheating? Stress? Just cravings? 

Hi guys I have read each of the posts you left. Thank you so much for your encouragement, tomorrow I start my fresh journey, I am grateful for this app. Allowing us to communicate and not feeling so alone. We all strive to achieve our goals, and on this platform we embrace it. Thank you so much, strongs to you all, keep it up ♡ you are amazing! 

yup .. more than once and had to restart. Get your mind in the right space to to be ready, motivated, prepared and ready to do this! It is more important than what you think!! kick your heels in and do it!! 

Sometimes you need a diet break. If you go hard your hormones suffer. Most people know how to loose weight and gain weight. How many people do you know who purposefully stay at maintenance for a month, and then go hard again? Natural bodybuilders do this to stabilize their hormones before they go again - and they are some of the leanest people on earth,🤔
