I have belonged to the 5% Challenges for quite a while. In doing so I've lost 108 lbs. Struggling now with heart issues and chronic kidney disease, I need to maintain what I've lost. Often the hardest part of weight loss, isn't the actual weight loss, but to not gain it back! Many of us on Myfitnesspal are familiar with…

I would love to hear some of the ways you keep yourself motivated and stay away from tempting snacks/treats. I have high anxiety and when I am anxious I tend to reach for high sugar foods.

I feel humble and full of joy -all 313 pounds of me
I took a day off today. Christmas had to come out of the attic and somehow find its way into our living room. We are older now. My husband is 66 and I just turned 61. When you get older, things get harder. When I got bigger and bigger and heavier and heavier, it almost killed me. Moving hurt, moving left me huffing and…

Is my body broken?
I’ll try to keep this short. After my third baby in 4 years, I started working with a pelvic floor therapist and made great progress. I was doing hinge movements, lunges and squats with almost zero pain. Originally I couldn’t do any of those movements without feeling intense ache/discomfort in my lower back. I worked with…

No weight loss 😞
Hi ladies, I saw this group and thought I’d give it a try to get some help with post menopausal weight loss.
