Hi all. I’ve been in this challenge for about 1.5 years and have lost 70-ish pounds. I have been toggling in the mid-170s for about 3 months so I guess I am at a plateau. That’s okay as I have to be mindful of my eating for the rest of my life!2 -
Hello I’m the new person here ... I think I participated years ago because the names sound so familiar! But starting back up fresh having added some serious pandemic weight.
September week 1
Today’s weigh in: 187.6
I’m doing a few things this month - a week ago I quit Diet Coke for the most part and am following some recommendations for hypothyroid - no gluten, also cutting back sugar significantly and dairy for a while (recommended by a book for thyroid conditions to give it up for gut health and then slowly reintroduce). We will see!1 -
Hi all, I’m Amy and I’m the captain here. Welcome to the new people!
I’ve been part of the challenge he since October and captain since December.
We have an optional daily post if you want to participate. Feel free to change it to track the things that are meaningful to you but the general layout is:
Daily Post
Track: Yes/no
Calories: Under/over
Exercise: yes/no (what you did)
Day:
I’ve been struggling since March, where I gained almost 30 of the 50 lbs I lost back but I’m nearing my 1 year logging streak and am determined to at least get back to where I was by then so I’m hoping the accountability of being here will help.
Good luck everyone

I can relate! I got a book about thyroid diets and am cutting out the gluten and dairy on account. Also gave up Diet Coke and candy. I can’t give up the sugar entirely but only IN things like So Delicious Coconut Milk Ice Cream which is my current guilty pleasure. No candy or anything and only a little here and there as a treat.

No idea why i gained so much, since my average intake has been even below my daily calorie goal, but no doubt it is going to be lower again next week.
Also it sucks i can't workout this week, because my wife is tested for COVID-19 so we are in self quarantine right now

Are you counting that as dairy? I think generally mayo is not a dairy item unless it's just one of the things you're restricting during your cleanse. I'm very happy it's not dairy, since I love it in the #2 Unwich!!!rawrxamberx wrote: »Day: Wednesday

So sorry, hope your wife is feeling better soon. Can you walk your neighborhood? That's been our go to exercise while our gym was closed - giving a wide distance if we pass anyone. Take care!!

MFP had helped me lose 25.25 lbs (11.5 kg) in last 5 years. Recently my weight has gone back to the highest weight. I felt terrible.
I have been walking daily for 2 weeks. Today, I just realized the good news:
. For August week 4, I am
the 2nd of the Biggest Loser and
the 1st of top 3 Individual % by Team
&
. For August 2020, I am
the 3rd of top 3 Individual % by Team.
The news motivates me and these are the best rewards I have ever received in MFP.
Thank you, let's do exercise! 💪😄
