I've done two 28-day dbs before. Won the first, lost the second and put all the weight back on. I totally forgave myself for that because my mum died a couple of days in and I just didn't care about weight-loss right then.

Now I'm in the third month of this transformer plus a kickstarter for motivation. I won the first month, then lost the second and put all the weight back on... no excuses this time. Back where I started. Again. For the zillianth time over the past five years.

I used to love coming to these forums and reading everyone's successes, now it just depresses me.

But what can I do other than try, try again?
