Big OverFeed Ruins Everything? Nope.
I'm posting this in counterpoint to the frequent "Fell off the wagon - all progress destroyed!!!!" woe-is-me "self sabotage" threads. I'm in maintenance, but trying to lose ultra-slowly because I'm a bit above maintenance range. Last weekend, I went to a weekend workshop with art buddies, and really kicked out the jams.…

Ancient and kicking it
Apparently, I just won the Ancient badge (no one remembers when you weren't here). I didn't even know we had badges. But, coincidentally, after all these years in and out of MFP and a whole slew of different diets and diet apps, I reached my goal of 132.2 pounds this morning. Ecstatic!!!!! I have often hovered above that…

Yep, lets do that.
Been injured for too long, and have something planned (not saying what - public forum) where being smaller than I am now would be beneficial. Note, I'm not quite overweight but preferred to stay on this somewhat higher weight over the past year or so, but it's too much for 'this'. Thus here goes! Start signal ->🔫

Weekly accountability and reflection
I’m doing this for myself, but if anyone sees this and wants to do the same, go for it. I have gained 15-20 pounds over the last 2 years and can’t seem to get it off. I have had success with in person communities, but that is no longer an option, so I’m going to supplement here. I’m going to update each week on Sundays for…

Having a hard time.
Trying to convince myself that I can still lose weight while eating carbs and sugar. I cut basically both out for 2 weeks and lost 8 lbs.

Is 115 pounds a good goal weight for a 5’4” female?
I currently weight 273 pounds. My goal weight is 115 lbs. I chose this goal weight because when I used to weigh 145 pounds years ago, and I still had a stomach. I want a flat stomach and I want to be able to fit in small outfits. I plan on getting gastric sleeve next year. I will also work out and eat healthy.
