I think the collagen powder in my morning coffee is helping control my appetite. Yesterday I put half a scoop in my afternoon tea and it tasted dreadful though it improved when I added a drop of honey. The strong coffee and cream must disguise the taste somewhat.
What brand of collagen powder do you use?3 -
Its called Ancient Nutrition Multi Collagen Protein. Collagen 20 g. Its got a red label.5

I love podcasts and I love this question! I’m curious to know what others are listening to for inspiration.
For overall well-being, I love Oprah and her Super Soul Sundays
Specific for weight loss, I started listening to Half Size Me a few weeks ago and find it very helpful and informative. Wish I had been listening to that one long ago.
Thank you!!! I look forward to giving those a try!!!!4 -
@RubyRed427 I heard that too! I was shocked. It doesn't sound like it's worth it (at our ages) to have a cheat day at all.
I'm learning at 52 that my portions definitely have to be smaller so really have to watch the cheat days!!!5 -
Not sure how accurate this number is. I actually changed my MFP goals from losing 1.5lbs per week down to 1lbs per week as I am getting closer to my goal and want to start getting a feel for what maintenance might look like. So, I ate about 100 calories MORE per day 🤷♀️ A little confusing but I’ll take it and celebrate it in lieu of the many times there is a surprise number the other way. Lol.
Have a great Friday!

Great results!!!!!3 -

I buy a delicious tasting Collagen at Walgreens and Target. It's called Vital Proteins beauty collagen (strawberry lemonade ). The container is a pink lemonade color. It also quells my hunger, I agree.4 -

Daily Macro's met? I did better this week than last and that was my goal. Little bit by little bit 🙂7 -
Check-in: Today is a rest day for swimming, but I plan on walking 3 miles, to complete a Garmin Connect challenge. I normally walk 1-1.5 miles, but I'll probably walk 3.11 miles so I can call it a 5k.
(This past week, I had a 3.8 pound gain, and I'm still up by a pound. So I've got my work cut out for me this week, to get back on track.)

Both my mom and sister asked me if I lost weight when I saw them yesterday. Yay! However I probably gained it all back at the brunch I threw. I will NOT weigh in until Friday! Back on track today.9

The people in charge of this website are failing miserably. It has been messed up for days!3

Feeling a bit discouraged as the scale isn’t budging much ... ugh... this week is a new week. I’m going to try something different to see if it helps.8

I decided I am done with my Stepbet app that I have been using since Jan. 1st. Average walking 35 miles per week since then. It's been 16 weeks of that daily step count of over 10,000 or so. I am so tired of walking.
I need to change it up. So, I met my goals for four months (walking a lot) and now will go to the gym and get back to the elliptical and weights. That always works for me.
Also, I got my first box of Hello Fresh. I really enjoyed the box organization (well organized) and so easy to make.
I chose the 600 calories or less meals (three meals per box). Hope that helps my weight loss.
I echo the sentiment MFP was down a lot these past few days.11
