New Start - I will do this !!!
I am 38 and the heaviest that I have ever been. Even heavier than when I was pregnant. I am miserable, uncomfortable and my confidence is at an all time low. I have a complete lack of energy. Everytime I look in the mirror or at photo's all I see is my double chin and belly. I deal with it through humour and try and laugh…

10kg down... So much more to go
Anyone else reach that first milestone only to realise there's so much more to go? Like this week I weighed in at under 100kg after around 2.5 months, meaning I've lost over 10kg. I'm definitely proud of myself. I never want to be over 100kg again if I can help it. It's just when I realise that I've got another 25-30 to…

Overnight Oats
Edited to Add - Sorry! I posted this twice! :) 1/2 cup of oatmeal, 1/2 cup of chocolate Fairlife lowfat milk. Soaked overnight, then in the morning I added 1 tablespoon of PB2. I swear it's like eating a no bake cookie for breakfast!

Vshred
I did it. I ordered the 90day program for $59. If anything, it’s motivation. I was disappointed when ordering that all these other videos kept popping up for additional products. It made it feel very scammy. I will do the 90 days. My weight is fine. I just want to lose the stubborn fat and become more defined. I’m half way…

Afraid of being fat

MFP Fitspiration!
There has been a lengthy thread about fitspo and how it uses unrealistic photoshopped people, and often supports unsafe practices (pushing until it's unhealthy). One of the things that came out of it was the idea that we, the people of MFP, should create our OWN fitspos... made with unvarnished pics, and our own sayings...…

Is Video Documenting Weight Loss Actually a Motivator?
I have mixed feelings on this... I've followed some people who do this that just stop making progress losing weight and then make videos about food. I've seen some who go all the way. I'm absolutely not looking to be instafamous (I work a real job and I'm earning my BA). I was just curious what the consensus is on this?…

Breaking the binge / delete / create new account cycle
Sometimes I feel like an addict! As soon as I stray from my perception of a healthy day (even just a little), I go full throttle vacuum mouth mode. I've read a bit about binge-eating, and I understand that it isn't about the food as much as it's about the binge... but I can't seem to break the cycle. It's almost like, as…

Small goals add up
In July, I worked on my mindset and worked on identifing food triggers and bad habits. The biggest was boredom. When I sit at home, I want to eat. So less sitting! In July I worked on my water intake. I think I maxed myself out and cut back a bit. Hovering around 300 lbs, I don't think the calculator works right for how…

60+, NB, new plant-based WF, non-theistic, food addiction -- looking for accountability partners
Okay, so, yeah... that's a lot. It's taken me years and lots of therapy to admit how I fit into my own life, right? I struggle with stuff. I have deprivation anxiety issues, and I'm not social, so I have always tried to do this alone. I don't think that works for me, and I think I've been fighting that truth for a long…

Fatboy
I have seen my waist expand from 30" to 34" with a gain of 12kg, so I think it's about time to track everything I eat and drink. I'm a bored snacker, so that is the first thing to go. I hope to lose enough to look better at the beach in 2024.
