Lost over 40 # in 2024
The biggest change is I cook all my meals. I go to the farmer's market to get fresh fruit and veggies. I have a gym membership and for the last 4 months worked with a personal trainer. 2024 has been about getting healthy.

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…

Calculating Macros
In the past I have liked high protein macros. A few years back I went to a bariatric doctor, where I also spoke to a dietitian. The plan they put me on according to a friend who does body building was equivalent to around 1200 calories a day. I did a plan like this years ago and fell of fast and gained even more. In…

What do you think of Richard Simmons and his plan?
I love Richard Simmon's committment to help people. I think he is a real go-getter and I love his flamboyance. I think that he is a person who just exudes caring and hope. I loved the Sweatin' to the Oldies DVD (Vol 1) but I think that the Food Mover is less than accurate. I once had the gold food mover, but I could not…

Health Journey
I have been using Myfitnesspal since July 14th. My Dr wanted me to get healthy in order to have an invasive surgery. He said that I would not make it through a surgery this complicated without losing weight. He wanted me to get my BMI down to at least 35. My BMI is now down to 37! But I haven’t had a UTI since starting my…

Help and advice needed with weight loss!!
I’ve been a calorie deficit since August and I’ve lost 21 pounds. I got down to 125 which is just 5 pounds off from my goal weight; however, once I updated my weight in the app it started to add more calories but not enough to where I wouldn’t still be in a deficit. I have since gained two pounds back and I haven’t been…

How long until the scale will start going down?

Does anyone else have Heart Failure here?
IF you have heart failure and a low EF% (injection fraction percentage), can you tell me how you raised your EF % and got it back to normal? I have been taking all of my medicine. I started at 24% then 3 months laterI was up to 25%. This was discouraging to be honest. I hope it eventually goes back up to normal levels.…
