Not my best week. Can you tell what day we got quarentined? Addison tested negative, but Mikey lost his sense of taste/smell Thurs. I have been exhausted, and sort of feel like I have allergies. They said we may not get our results until Tuesday because it is Labor Day weekend. I have been eating all the carbs and not moving my body.
Hope everything comes back okay with your test results... tough way to be starting September in your household. Thinking of you guys...2 -

@KellyBgetsfit
What a time you're going through - carbs sound like good short-term medicine to me, but yeah - maybe need to move a bit more or at least take a good moment or two to take some deep breaths with your eyes closed from time to time. Nuts and pickles. Carrots and hummus. Crunchy and salty can sometimes help push away the sugary and creamy desires - just make sure it isn't chips! Many hugs flying your way.0 -

no problem! You are on a serious roll, too - you were our team 1st place loser last week, and here you go again! Be careful not to go too fast, though - the bounce back can sneak up and get you. If you start feeling hungry all all all the time, take a week at the same weight so that all your systems can catch up with the new reality. Short on-purpose plateaus of a week or two from time to time will save you from crazy bounces, usually. Always good to be prepared in case you start getting the raging hungries!2 -

Hi @donnasteel1 !
Thanks for this - great job this week! Sadly, this wonderful loss did not get included in our tallies for the week because I did not receive it in time. If Saturdays are difficult for you and you'd like to switch to a different day, that would be fine. Sundays are good because even if you are late by a day or more, it is no problem. Saturdays are tough because I have to have everyone's weight recorded by first thing Sunday morning when I get all the results for the week figured out. Let me know if you'd like to change. If you stick with Saturday, try to post earlier and all will be well. Thanks!0 -

Oh no - usually if your username is mentioned anywhere, you get a notification. Check your settings to be sure this is on, and you'll always know when we're talking about you
In any case, welcome! Your cat is gorgeous, by the way. If you have some time, read the very first page of this chat thread to get the general info on how things work, and then go ahead and post an introduction telling us a bit about yourself, where you are (if you want to share that), and how your weight-loss journey is going. Come by often so you can keep up with the general news and join in the weekly challenge if you would like to. There is always one going on, and you can see them in the Announcements section of the Fat 2 Fit main page (just click below or on the name of the group at the top of the page to get there). This month we also have a full month challenge happening, so check it out! Ask away if you have any questions.1 -
@YinxFed
I can still see those amazing leggings when I close my eyes! You must light up everyone's day when you're out walking.
@ashleycarole86
You were asking about times when eating still gets a bit disordered even after maintaining for a while. For me, that problem has never gone away, but it has certainly quieted down a great deal. This month marks 9 years at goal! I originally hit 120 as my goal, but now I tend to hover more around 115. What has gotten easier? Filling up on the stuff that works and being mostly strict with the other stuff is easier now. It's easier to eat mostly vegetables, lots of fibre, and rarely any grains. I do eat them, and go through periods of having bread for a bit, but I do not include grains, even whole grains, in most meals. Chili tastes great over a big bed of kale, pasta does not interest me much anymore, breakfast cereals (hot or cold) hardly ever happen. That makes things easier for me. Trigger foods can still set me off for a few days as they have last week - but they don't take over for long. It is still hard to let go of the "feel good" factor that certain foods have, but gradually it is less difficult to stop. Ice cream is usually replaced by sorbet, but still comes to visit once in a while

Hi everyone, my name is Donna and I live in England. I'm married to my best friend, my rock and childhood sweetheart. I've been married for 37 years and have two wonderful grown-up boys. I have one 5 year old cat and 2 18 week old kittens. I enjoy riding my bike for fitness and am on strava if anyone wants to follow me. I have been on a weight loss journey all my life. I've tried all the faddy diets, WW and slimming World. Eventually came back to calorie counting with MFP. I don't need to lose alot but it's those few that I find the hardest. I want to be healthy and fit and fit in my clothes comfortably 😊6

@ashleycarole86 way to go on getting movement in. Lazy day at the lake sounds lovely. My dinner was so delicious and satisfying - perfect amount of food without going overboard.
Saturday steps!
10,104 + 62 total body strength & cardio (Epic Day 34)
- this one was intense, oh man. I definitely had to modify some things. Almost all the moves involved a chair, which I don't really love (things like decline pushups and bulgarian split squats haha)1
