Anyone around? Went back to reddit just for this community and can't stand the reddit app. (lemmy.zip)

Hi everyone,

I'm on a long delayed (re-weight loss journey) about 10 years ago I lost 115 lbs and kept it off until the last year or two where it's kept back up and now I found myself at 240lbs (previous high was 294). So anywho, I'm on day 4 tracking calories again and I was disappointed this community is inactive. I went back to Reddit for the first time in over a year and the reddit app is so bad. Ads everywhere.

So anywho, if anyone is interested maybe we can restart this community or start a new one if the mod here is gone. If anyone is interested let's share or stories, successes, tips and failures.

Edit: so cool to see all the comments! Thanks y'all.

I’m down. My Reddit profile even comments on how much I hate their official app.

Regain can be downright traumatic. That said, the fact that I’ve done it once means that you can do it again.

You know what to do (CICO), you have the tools (calorie trackers and exercise), and you can remember that sensation of when the weight started really coming off. When it comes to regain, it’s just a matter of not giving up.

Keep on keeping on!

This exactly is my plan and feelings I was clearly dealing with depression and I was willfully trying to not address the problem for at least a year which only made it worse. Thank you.
