Tracking but not losing 😭
I have been tracking my calories and macros since end of February. All I drink is water all day long, at least 60-100 oz a day. I walk at least a mile everyday and get 8,000-11,000 each day. My starting weight was 148.8. My goal is 130. The lowest I’ve gotten is 147.1 and I keep fluctuating between 147-149. I don’t…

I EAT A LITTLE VS I EAT A LOT
It isn’t about how much or how little you eat. It’s about calories in vs calories out. Eat atleast 500 calories below maintenance weight calories to lose weight. Lower fat intake to burn body fat and eat more protein to build and recover muscle 💪🏾 add 10k steps a day and some resistance training and you’re golden! Good luck

MOTIVATION
I've always believed that 'motivation' is overrated! I haven't always felt motivated to do something, but I just make a decision to do it because I know what I'll feel like afterward (whether it's in business, wellness, relationships, etc.). What's your thought on MOTIVATION?

New member.
I loved reading everyone’s goals. Very inspirational. I just signed up for the full version of MyFitnessPal app and I will be exploring it more and finding more tools to help me along the way. I have started with an online physiologist that sends me workouts to do at home. I don’t find it very motivating. But let’s see how…

Persistence, not perfection!
Do you find yourself getting frustrated and ready to give up when “dieting” isn’t going perfect? That was certainly me over and over when trying to lose weight and get healthy. I felt that if I blew it one day that was it I just ruined everything so I let it mess with my mind and I would give up. Learning now, but is…

This is too hard
My pants don’t fit and they break anytime I try on a new pair. I hobble so bad trying to put on socks and getting around sucks. I’ve tried to reach out in my personal life but ppl don’t understand- I feel like this is just how my life is now.

Let's stop calling it "Weight Loss"
The problem I have with the idea of weight loss is that it can be a massive de-motivater. If you're starting out on your journey then you're going to want to measure your progress daily. The problem is that as weight fluctuates you can get yourself in a demotivated rut. If you measure yourself say the end of each month…
