Might have missed something....if this is women only, ill move on, but the title caught my eye. I don't ever post on here but I'm struggling bad. 36 years old..last couple years have been downhill for me. Gained weight and lost strength, motivation, drive.. Wife and I have 5 kids and it gets tough to stay on track. Snacks are my kryptonite. I did manage to avoid eating donuts at work today so small victory. Ha. Anyway...good to see people going through the same thing and still fighting! Keep going!2

This thread is for all!! Beginning again and again and again over here!! We never give up!!!3 -
Monday is a great day to begin a good week with good habits!! Lay out the goals and set yourself on a course for success!!
Had a good bday weekend I reckon! Time to:
Move that butt
Drink that water
Eat mindfully
Log that food
Gonna see green all month and finally get out of the 180s I been stuck in!!0 -
Yesterday I did pretty good. Still ate more than I really should have! I was in the green but I won't lose unless I get a lil more green on the board!! Tuesday is my longest day this week!! Gonna work out tonight!!0

Begin again and again. It is my life for the 13 last years. Needing support? Always, but sometimes it is not easy to find. The right kind of support. I know it is mostly my fault that I have gained the weigh back. I lost 45 lbs. and gained every single one back since March. No will power. So now, I just need Start Again. 5 lbs. down. 40 more to go. It took me 18 months last time. I hope this time I can reach my goal by Christmas. Good luck to you all. By the way, it is amazing how much better my knees fell when I eat basically protein. Which foods and/or condiments cause so much inflammation?1
-
Inflammation is usually salt for me!! I bloat when I eat a lot of salt. Carbonated beverages can make you bloat and swell!! It can be many things!
Stress!! It just follows me around lately and I just eat!! Damn it!! I am over the emotional eating I don't even realize till I am done and the damages are digesting!! Aaaahhhh new triggers coming daily!! I'm so over it!! I haven't gotten up to work out at all this week! I'm super mad at myself!!!0 -
Been at it again. Lost quite a bit of weight years back. Gained it back over time. I've been doing well again. Lost 36 since October. 42 years old so not getting any younger. Feel free to add me. Trying to get down to 180 again. A weight I haven't been at in around 20 years. Another 68 lbs to go. Let's do this!1

Here we go again. Thinking if I don't get myself under control I'm gonna hit 200 again. Now I got my thyroid spun out from eating crap and I am in a gain from hell!! Gonna use aunt flo to shed this weight!! Dropping calories cutting sugar no more caffeine!! Aaaaahhhhhhh I can't gain anymore!! Here I go again all over!!1
-
Be_theBest_Me for being bloated try fennel tea with some honey, and for sleep I would suggest that you try meditation of any kind even if it's just half an hour (I was struggling with insomnia for a long while and with meditation I was able to get good hours of sleep, after that it was like I was a new person). I'm happy to hear that you minimized your stress levels, that should help a lot with weight loss. If you need someone to talk to I will be more then happy to listen!

How're you getting on @Be_theBest_Me ?
Well I went up to 187 from 180 lately!! The binge has been real. Since I've gotten back on mfp have not been able to get myself in a RYTHUM!! Frustrating!! I gave up caffeine again and I am counting all calories drinking the water and I have been cutting back a lil more each day!! Doing better I think!! Realistic changes cause I have never had success with a diet....to much die in there for me. I change my lifestyle and get my head right and my body falls into line cause it's getting what it needs fuel not over fed!! I worked out today!! Yah yah!! Still got this tension in my shoulder and neck sidelined me yesterday!! I was so dizzy!!0 -
