I am also in the boat of starting and stopping and coming back. I started Jan 05 and lost 70lbs. I just stopped doing it for whatever excuse I gave myself, you know there is always one of them. I have tried and tried to get back on program since (God bless my HA for her patience lol) but have always found a reason to stop, so in so is having a party, we are suppose to go out this weekend, whatever holiday is coming up. Finally I said enough is enough. I am committed to losing the weight this time and if I screw up one day then I will just get back on the next day or the next shake. I just turned 34 I have two wonderful boys ages 5 and 9 months. My five year old is Always Always Always ready to go and play and I am sick and tired of sitting on the sidelines while he plays either by himself or with other family members who are in shape and can keep up. I am also tired of giving him excuse after excuse why we can't go to Disney or ride the rides at Sea World when we go. And I figure if I can't stay on this for me do it for them.
Whatever it is that motivates you find it and embrace it. If you need friends get them active, and vice-versa if they aggravated you just don't let them know until they notice. I know growing up, while I know my mom was trying to be an encouragement, it always seemed to have the opposite effect. I can tell you I have been on WW since I was about 15, and always I would hear are you suppose to eat that and sure enough I would eat that and normally the rest of whatever it was. So again just try and find that one thing that will keep you motivated and JUST DO IT
