I totally understand your journey...i started out needing to lose 38.5 lbs! I just started this weight loss lifestyle change Feb. 26th...i have since loss 12.5 lbs...with at least 20-25 more to go!
I am committed to losing 5 lbs per month (MINIMUM)...that's 30 lbs in 6 months...30 lbs is noticeable ...especially if you are strength training as well!
Anything extra is a PLUS!!!
I set realistic expectations! I know i CANNOT lose 5 lbs every week, so i'm not gonna start out saying i can...it will only frustrate me, and cause me to give up!
I pat my own self on the back foe every hurdle i cross...and there has been a few!
I celebrate ME!
As the weight comes off...i become more proud of myself for accomplishing something that's vitally important...GETTING MY HEALTH IN CHECK!0 -
If any one is interested in joining a group that has weekly challenges and help to motivate each other daily please message me for more info.0

I'm 5'7" and 133ish. Want to get back into competitive sports someday so I'm going to lose the fat and gain some of the weight back in muscle.
I'm preparing for college entrance exams and want to get into med school (am Taiwanese. Medicine is an undergraduate major here) so I spend most of the day studying. It makes fitting in a workout schedule quite diffficult.
Feel free to add me
Thank you jamiechiehlo for sharing! We definitely understand how difficult it is to exercise when you have busy days. my suggestion to you would be to set aside a certain amount of time each day to MOVE start with 20 or 30 mins, and increase gradually)...movement is the key to weight loss. Also continue charting your foods here on MFP. Try to stay UNDER your calorie goal if possible. What you COMMIT to...you STICK TO in order to see the change in your body!
You can do this! Stay motivated! Make this a priority, the same as you do for your studies! The results will come!

I've been slowly allowing myself to not eat as planned since Saturday.....enough is enough though..back to it tomorrow!
Idk why I self sabotage???? Same pattern. Get close to 180's and then I start slipping0 -
ok sweetie...let's figure out what is going on, and why you seem to be going backward this week! Need to ask you a few questions ok...
First...how many days has this been going on? Are you emotional eating? Has something upset you this week? Do you think you are overworking yourself...could your body need a break?
I only ask these questions, so i can figure out where WE need to start at when it comes to fixing this issue!0 -
Sometimes it can be the obvious things like needing to take a break from exercising, or from eating the same foods continuously, and for some ppl, something can happen to discourage you, and it will completely throw your FOCUS OFF! Others just get bored!
Talk to me...let's figure this out together!
If you need to inbox me, plz do so!0 -
Don't worry, we will get you back on track! For starters, let's jump start your motivation....what motivates you to work out more? Is it a significant other, your health, looking at pics of yourself? Whatever it is...let's go with that! Find images of what motivates you, and make that your screensaver, put it in view where you workout, put a pic on the refrig....you must be able to SEE on a regular basis what it is that motivates you to get fit!
Start a journal...you don't have to write much, but plz chart your rough days, and be honest about why you binged, or didn't work out! Also chart your very good days...when looking back over your progress, this will help out a lot!
Chart how you felt, and why???
We can't fix what we do not acknowledge! When you can SEE what you wrote, you can acknowledge it...if you can acknowledge it, you most certainly can change it!
Hope this will help some, but if we need to do more...we will just let me know!1 -

feel free to add me as well. looking sto stay motivated!
