Wow, I impressed myself yesterday. I ‘be worked nights (9pm-7am) for the last 18 months. I do NOT sleep well and have found I crave and eat tons of carbs to stay awake. Last night I didn’t deviate from my planned foods, nor did I do my usual food fest after work. Yay me!!8

I have been looking for a group like this!!
I currently weigh 262 pounds. I have always struggled with my weight - of course I didn't know it when I weighed 140 pounds that I was not overweight but I certainly felt like it. Now however, it is bad. I sunk a kayak - it had its own issues but I weigh so much the kayak was low enough to take on a lot of water and the kayak went under. You would think that would have done it for me but no, that did not do it. I am not sure what it was. I even have a full out home gym and that did not get me motivated. I guess I am tired of being tired. Tired of not fitting in clothes I like. Oh yeah and I might have signed myself up for a "princess run" in June - that is certainly motivating. I figure I need to get in good enough shape to not look ridiculous doing this run.
My hobbies/enjoyments are cross stitching, crocheting, hanging out with friends, I am learning to grow veggies and I love to ride my motorcycle.
I have two fur babies! Prissy who is a a torti and Spaz who is a mini panther (he is my picture).4 -
hi team. day #3 for me and i’m hanging on / no quitting in sight. lets go team. let’s push through.3

At the doctor, I weighed nearly 300. Eep. True, I got a divorce in 2019 and moved twice, so there may have been some disordered eating in there.
But, time for a change. I'll weigh myself again on Friday and see how I'm doing.
I'm 46, have a fiance and a girlfriend, two grown sons, and am 5'7". Underneath the hundred extra pounds I'm not a sylph; I'm a solid farm girl with broad shoulders, strong legs and lots of curves. So I'm aiming for 180-ish, and I'd like a good part of that to be solid muscle. I don't mind at all being big if I'm big and strong.
The other reason I'm aiming for 180-ish is that if I can get there and stabilize that will put me in the territory where I can get abdominoplasty done. I don't think I'll need help anywhere else, but I had three nine-pound babies in my twenties, and it split my abs and stretched my skin and that's going to take surgery to repair. I'm not ruling out a breast reduction sometime after that, as I wear a G cup and I do feel it in my shoulders. But, again, I need to get the weight off myself before I start getting help with reshaping myself into the woman I want to be for the rest of my life.3 -
Welcome on board celticck77 and theleadmare, celtic, I'm glad to meet someone else who rides, what do you have for a bike ? leadmare, I know how you feel, I was born and raised in the white mts of NH and with 3 older brothers, I was taught everything from splitting wood to greasing tractors. I look at myself and know it's not a fat, there's muscle under all that fluff.1

theleadmare - I feel your pain - I am now in an H and trying hard to stay away from I or J cups.
Ladycopnh1 - I ride a yamaha Vstar (formerly rode an R6 but now onto a cruising bike

I would love to be apart of this group! I recently got laid off and have been eating out of boredom and gained 13 lbs in 2 months (222 lbs😩) I'm on track so far and have been doing good for 2 days. My bf and I are supporting each other in our weight loss, she's doing keto but I'm just eating healthier and cutting back on carbs.3

I want to make this change for me and my babies too.

Hi! Day 2 almost done. I ate so healthy today! Saw my endocrinologist today and told her I commit to losing 20+ pounds by my next appointment in three months, but I really hope it's more. My knee felt quite a bit better today. The treadmill is coming next Monday! I think that I will enlist the help of my sister in taking a before picture tomorrow. I'll check in tomorrow!3

I started a new 30 day challenge this month to track what I eat every day. I'm trying to implement good habits one month at a time through these challenges. Last month, I developed a habit of taking vitamins daily - it should be so simple but I've never been good about vitamins. I'm using a Commit30 fitness planner and so far I like it quite a bit. In order to improve my diet and increase my exercise, I know that vitamins will be more important than ever so I decided to start with that.
To support the food tracking challenge, I'm planning a meal prep session for this Sunday. I'm hoping that it's a win-win combination. By prepping in advance, I can setup the foods in MyFitnessPal in advance and then tracking what I eat should be a lot easier if I stick to plan. But I'm going to make foods I actually like, just use portion control and make some healthy substitutions where I can.
My husband always tells me that there is a two week delay so just stick with it and by mid-month I should see some results. So here's where I'm at now and we'll see how that Jan 16 number looks!
Jan. 2: 261

Sooo I went a little high on the calorie count yesterday. I did a big workout on my total gym so I had extra burned calories but I did not intend to use them. Not terrible but about 300 calories over. Not beating myself up just being accountable to myself. I need to have a plan for dinner better, breakfast and lunch are good for the most part. Although I just realized I forgot to bring my carrots to snack on today.0

Ladycopnh1 - my Vstar is a 950 - I am 5'4" and it is perfect for me.
One of my goals is to fit in my motorcycle jacket comfortably again.. its a bit tight right now.0 -

ladycopnh1 - is this a created group or just the message board?

I just got tired of looking for what I needed, pushed the create button and away I went, or I should say, away we went. and I can relate to the riding jacket, I had to put extenders on my vests as well.3

Be aware ladies, this week is almost over and 9 of you have yet to claim the number on the scale as an official starting weight, around this or about that means you haven't looked lately. If your going to be accountable for what your doing, good and bad, this year is the year to do it.3

Would love to join this group! I gained 70 pounds 3 years ago after a ruptured brain aneurysm and haven't been able to get it off. I'm getting married on May 30 and I am determined to not be this big for my wedding!! I am at 230 right now.4

I need to purchase a scale this weekend.1

You are more than welcome kathyjackson, and congratulations on your marriage, you do know if you join this group, we are all coming to your wedding. Just kidding. We are all here for you whenever you need us. 1

Start of 2020: 238.4
Goal for 2020: 180
Ultimate goal: 160
Jan 1: 238.4 going back to work tomorrow, will go to the gym afterward on my way home.
Jan 3: 239.6 margaritas last night, plus starting to work out again. Probably water. Either way, 2 workouts in, 28 more until I get new sleep pants (haven’t decided between wonder woman or deadpool yet. Will closer to earning them, probably around spring break). Our principal brought in a sheet cake for her birthday today, and I’ve been struggling to deal with one of our students (not in my class, but still) having been shot and killed at a party Wednesday morning. Been counseling students and trying to deal with it myself at the same time. Candlelight Vigil is going in literally right now and I am worried about getting a local news update on my phone about retaliation gunfire at the event (it’s in the neighborhood he was killed in, not our school’s neighborhood. I used to live a few blocks away and I would not get out of my car in that park after dark for anything, and several of my students were complaining that their parents will no longer let them go because of where it is being held), so that’s where my head is at today (almost had to eave the gym yesterday because the TVs were on local news and showing this story. Somehow powered through, though).

Celticck77 has a point...if we had a group, i would totally join it. And since we already have 5 pages of replies, this could get out of hand quickly, especially if it serves its purpose.celticck77 wrote: »ladycopnh1 - is this a created group or just the message board?

i don't want to necessarily be the sole person in charge, that sounds like too much pressure...i am only a little bit of a control freak..and that is what my anxiety disorder demands i be in charge of...
