Joined March Challenge since they opened the registry.
Original account (zaraizzy) was deleted, and had to restart with new account (zara6bells).
This has been a stressful week for me, and to start a fresh new one.

I ate so bad today. I am not hungry at all and when I do decide to eat I eat junk. This is so frustrating.
@genajonas It is very frustrating, and normal. Hang in there, you'll get there, baby steps.0 -

Yesterday was my second official day on this new eating style but yesterday was the 1st full day off eating and I only calculated 788 calories so I have to do a couple things differently today and going forward to get over the 800-1000 mark.
***Thanks everyone for their encouraging words and support of my dealing with my family. I do feel so much better, like a burden RELEASE!
***Also sorry I haven't been as active trying to manage my time with my new course load with so many papers due every week it's complicated but I'm doing my best***4 -

HAPPY MODAY TEAM SLIMSONS! 🏋️♂️
TODAY'S MOTIVATIONAL TIP:
🔥🔥DANGERS OF SUGAR HIDDEN 🔥🔥
IMPORTANCE OF READING INGREDIENTS
My person experience likely I assume that a lot of the recent changes in my diet was on point because I was choosing healthier option but did you know if the product has a large amount of sugar it can throw you off course and hinder your weight loss? Well, some of you long-timers probably did but I just learn my lesson so wanted to share it with everyone else.
When searching for new snacks or any processed foods to eat make sure you are aware of the sneaky hidden sugars listed below and just be more aware.
I really hope this helps someone.
Have a blessed day.
Regards,
Glorious Gloria

This is why I tend to stay away from processed foods, in general. They hide things like sugar in it where you can't see it, because if you can't pronounce it, it's probably not great for you...just saying..1 -

Has anyone else had trouble with their fitbit since the time change? My steps didn't reset last night. I've rebooted the fitbit and rebooted my phone. I'm hoping it resets tonight.0

Had a fun day with my sister we got our nails done, went out for lunch. And I sold my kayak. I’m decluttering the house anything I don’t need is being sold or donated.
Nice! Great way to treat yourself! Wonderful cleaning stuff out. Yesterday, everything came out of the fridge did a deep cleaning and it feels great to have a clawab fridge!1 -

This is something I'm experimenting with as I've had a few days over the last few months where I've ate way over my calories and then dropped a lot of weight right after, the last more than 5 lbs right after...
@Wildmage69 & @AB0215 One of the trainers at my gym was telling a group of us who are doing IF that a re-feed day boosts metabolism and will actually help you lose more fat. Since then (last December) I have eating higher calories (he said to go 300-500 calories above maintenance) on Fridays (and sometimes Saturdays too if I workout hard and lift heavy)--- and that's when I really saw some progress. Works!
Oh nice! That sounds like a really good plan. So, still track, but give yourself that extra allowance once a week. Thanks!

Just as a heads up, MFP doesn't send me notifications at that tag, my username has a zero and not an "O" so if you messaged me, I didn't receive any, sorry!0 -
