Are you doing anything in particular this time that you didn't the first?

I don't think I'm doing it that much differently. I am counting points and exercising, which is pretty much the only way it works for me. I am trying to do it faster this time, I hope to reach goal in 10-12 months instead of almost two years. Also I just have to work harder in general to get the weight to come off, since I'm 32 and not 20.

I think the difference this time is going to have to come during maintenance. I'm good at getting the weight off, not so much keeping it off. I realize now that I need to keep up with the journaling and exercising after I reach goal. Last time I was so excited to be slim for the first time in my life at the age of 22 that I just went around with my friends to the parties and the clubs and acted like I could eat and drink however I wanted. Yeah, that didn't work out so much for me. It was fun at the time though!
