    Paz...I wish I saw this earlier. Ok. No big deal. I’m super duper similar in stats.
    Can you tell us what has helped you the most?


    Hi AASlender, welcome to the group!😊

    I started my journey on 4/25. I haven’t had any sugar or alcohol which are trigger foods for me and make me overeat. I can’t even have bake goods that are made with sugar substitutes. That does mean that I won’t have them for ever but it has worked for me. A lot of people have success with Keto but it is too restrictive for me. I prefer to do low carb. Instead of pasta, I eat spaghetti squash or soy noodles. However. I’ve had two slices of pizza for a meal (I had a salad before to make me fuller). I have Ezekiel bread every day with breakfast. I drink about 90 oz of water a day and walk 5 days a week. Posting everyday helps me to feel accountable. I track my food everyday. We can do this!😊

    I would like to join your group, I'm a little late, but I have to start somewhere....
    I was doing really good until the pandemic really hit home, and I had some medical issues (not covid related) and I let myself slip back into old routines. I will do my first weigh in tomorrow.

    I’ve not been so good at posting here, but after a couple of down days I managed to pick myself up, eat pretty well and even achieve a few fitness-related goals this week . I’ll do a weigh in tomorrow so we will see if any of it has paid off 🙈

    Hope everyone has a great day :). I am experiencing time of month bloat so not surprised by the gain. Continuing to work on putting our new flooring, have some dry wall repairs to do tonight.

    Greetings from Virginia!

    I'd like to join at this late juncture, as well.
    I've been a silent observer and it's time to go all in with accountability.

    Here are my stats: I'm 5'4", 51 y/o and am 10 lbs up over the last 10 years. Same weaknesses as many: bread, cheese, sweets, end of evening drink or two. Time to face the music:-)

    SW - 136
    CW - 136
    GW - 126 for June 29 (safe weight loss pace); GW overall - 121

    Looking forward to the group motivation & success!

    Kate

    hi! I’d like to join as well! I’ve had a bad history of overeating but have recovered from BED and now want to reach my goal weight for optimum health! I’ve tried to lose weight in the past but my bad eating habits made it hard and therefore I’ve struggled for several years to lose 15 pounds. I think I’m finally at a good mental state to lose weight and keep it off without veering into bad behaviors, and I know I should for health (family history of diabetes, cancer, heart disease.

    Highest W: 135
    SW: 127
    CW: 124.3 lbs
    GW: 115 lbs by June 30th

    (I’m 159 cm // 5’2.5, 20 years old)
    Looking forward to seeing everyone’s progress and keeping myself accountable :)

    I'd love to join as well! Late is better than never, right? I've lost weight in the past & it always creeps back. I know how to lose the weight. But it can be difficult doing it alone. I've found when I'm alone in losing weight I don't have any accountability so it's easier to slip up. I'm open to having anyone friend request me as well, so we can be more accountable together. I'm currently 39 & my 40th birthday will be in November. I really want to be at my ideal weight by my birthday, (if not before!) I plan to keep working on losing weight after June 30th. But I've found it helps to have shorter achievable goals. We've got this!!

    SW: 144
    CW: 143
    GW: 131 (by June 30th)

    Ultimate goal weight: 112!

    Hi everyone
    I like reading all the posts and it’s helpful as i have made several attempts to lose the last few pounds and given up. I’m trending down.8 pound a week at 136.4 today so my goal of 132 is doable by the end of June if I stay the course.

    Nice! Slow and steady is the way to go!

    Hi everyone, after my first week back at work from quarantine I feel good! It’s so much easier to eat healthy foods! It’s been really hard to workout as much as I had been but I’ve done a little (sometimes tiny) bit every day at least. My trick is I make myself do 40-50 squats while I brush my teeth and that has been helping me wake up in the morning and encouraging me to workout a little before I get in bed. I finally lost another pound too!

    GW: 120
