Have you ever lost a lot of weight and gained it all back?

About 3 year ago I lost 50lbs in 5 1/2 months. Over the next three years after I stopped dieting exercising and such I gained it all back. It really is my fault and I have no excuse, I'm returning to the old habits that helped me lose weight and this time not stopping at 5 months but going to diet for a year to lose as much weight possible (that I should healthily be at 190-210). The one upside I don't look as fat as I used to three years ago before I lost the weight. Guess the weight lifting I did kept my shoulders, chest and forearms big and bulky. So any of you ever regained your weight and made a second effort at losing it? How did it go?

P. S I used to drink protien shakes for 2 of my meals.

This happened to me too haha! I dont look nearly as bad as I did when I had all the weight as well. But to be honest I looked wimpy when I shed all the weight... I prefer abit of chub. I seem to get looked at by girls frequently as well so Im not complaing.

Oh yes I have. From 198lbs all the way down to 149lbs, which made me look great but it felt like hell to maintain. Eventually I let myself go, big time. Shot up to 297 in less than two years.

Now I'm losing weight again, hopefully for good.

I'm very slowly losing weight because I'm already quite slim. I've lost 10 pds so far in a month and now that I've stopped counting calories so accurately, I've gained back maybe a pound. Trying to lose it again though

Well I lost 5 pounds once and I was so happy that I decided to celebrate by eating cake and ice cream... then I gained that all back. So that was fun.

I have gone up and down with weight. I went through a time that I couldn't afford my gym membership anymore, and I was also on a medication that i found oht recently caused me to gain weight.

I have, but I didn't gain it ALL back, I was about 10 lbs from fully gaining it back. I've lost a lot of that now though
