I'm in, been dieting for the last 30! years, lost so much weight over the years should be invisible but it keeps going back on!!! Yesterday, I started again, went to the gym, logged by food and am taking it day by day. Little goals, trying to lose a stone (14 lbs) in the next 6 weeks so only just over a couple of pounds a week. I CAN DO IT IF I TRY!!!!!!!!!! I think the trick is finding something to occupy your mind when you want something unsensible, it might not work for everyone but I find painting my finger nails helps if I'm really struggling as they take ages to dry and you cant touch anything, or I tidy a cupboard out. Stupid but sometimes stupid wins! Good luck everyone2

Great idea! Exercising and logging daily is the key2 -

Hi everyone, so I am in another group and I have realized once I become "disqualified" I stop logging on to post in groups. I need to stop this, as I really need the support that I can find on here because no one in my family is interested in weight loss.
Today's goal is to finish this week's homework for my class and drink my water.
Happy Thursday!!1 -
Hello everyone. Just starting back. Looking for some accountability. I do so much better when I have someone to hold me to it. Would love to have some people on here add me.2

Good Morning!! I would LOVE to have the time to read over all the most recent posts...…..but I've been away from work for 10 days so I'd better get some work done lol.
I have gone up 2.2 pounds since my last weigh in. A little disappointing, but not bummed. After the July we've had with three deaths and a busy family vacation and reunion, I am content, but back to work! Tracking and exercising again!!
Hope everyone has been well. When I read the posts on the main page it sounds like everyone has been doing great, great attitudes!
Jen, I see you are back to classes. Good for you for getting your education in as a top priority!! Do continue to take care of yourself also
Have a great hump day everyone!!

It sounds like I have found my tribe of fitnesspal-er's. I have been on and off here for...well forever. I got divorced this last year and lost 20 lbs, still have lots to go and have totally plateaued, but my next goal is to lose 10lb. I would be under 200lbs for the first time since I got pregnant! I would love the support, and a revenge bod, lol!4

The summer has been hectic with travel but I back online with our community! Hope all is well with everyone. I look forward to seeing posts from new friends.2

Catching up on some posts, seems I don’t get on the community as much as I initially did. Lots of newbies, just know that this app can be of great help on your journey, but ultimately you have to ‘just do it’ to make a choice to eat better and get healthy. It is a hard journey, and I know even when I reach my goal it will be a hard lifetime committment to making better choices as I don’t ever plan to gain this back. The past few weeks have been hard, finally had a small loss a few days ago after plateauing for awhile. I know that I am allowing myself some ‘goodies’ that I need to stay away from; and that because I am feeling better about how I look and what I can wear I am feeling more content with where I am at. BUT I still need to lose at least 20 more pounds to get to my goal that my MD and I set together. That goal of 170 is still 20 pounds over ‘charts’, but something that is more ‘real’ for me to attain and stay at. I bought a few new clothes and want to get more, but HAVE TO STOP myself and wait till I get to goal. All of you that have friended me in the last 200 plus days have been my buddies with your tips/tricks and daily encouragement. I DO read your daily comments and try to note on your statuses some positive helps too. We can do this, just need to stay focused.1

It's getting boring - I want to red what's happening the 89th time... 0 -
How do we add people?0

@chefbender5310 You should be able to click on blue hyperlink to their ‘name’ which opens a window, then click on blue hyperlink name again which opens second window where you can then click on the icon for person + which should send a request to the person. I just tried again, and it is not working for me, get to clicking on person + icon and nothing happens. So maybe a glitch today. Seems this app has glitches quite often and in a few days it all works again. Good luck0
-
Thank you..when I click on the person's name it just opens a window to send a message..I will try again another time.1
-
After you click their name and get to the screen that says send message-click their name above that-you can then send friend request or message. Just sent you request.0

@kjaispuro -I usually do meal prep on weekends and reheat during the week, but it's just me. Try to preplan with some things you can cook quickly or reheat.
@AbandondedKSCharger -good to have you back. You had a very rough July--let's hope for a much better August.
@KCJen -glad my schools days are just memory!
@Longing4Maui - I agree we just have to do it. I think we hit spells where it is harder than others, but keep taking the steps you can. Maybe you should eat at maintenance for a week or two.1 -
I need to post in here more - I really need the support of a "community" since no one in my family is interested in weight loss.
Got all the back-to-school shopping done on Friday!! Now to clean house, laundry, and prep for a job interview!!
Oh and of course, drink my water!!! (I have been slacking in my water intake)

I've been busy too & haven't been on this group for a while, @kjaispuro I'm unusual in that I cook in the late mornings after my dog walk. When I worked full time, I worked the swing shift on purpose so I can still have my mornings. I'm too tired to cook in the evenings. I now work part time in mornings so on those days, I don't cook. I'll cook enough for left overs the day before. I know this doesn't help. My mom cooked in the morning too for the 4 of us. I would often wake up to the smell of cooking2

I’m planning to eat this way for the rest of my life. Lost 15 inches in 8 weeks. Just adjusted my macros up to .5 lb loss a week so I am less hungry and the plan is sustainable. I stay off the scale. I judge my progress by the clothes I can a) now squeeze into, and a few weeks later, can comfortably wear. Every 8 weeks I’ll measure again. I love the plan I use and I can eat this way forever. Feeling pretty optimistic. So inspired by everyone here who lost 20 - 40 pounds. If you did it once you can do it again. I am learning from your experience not to stop what works!3
