@jazzadesigns as is usual with my health issues, evidently more investigation is necessary. My blood work and organs look great (thank you losing weight, blood work was always great before even at 277 lbs - but now I am supposedly a health superstar), they want me to do another hair sample, as I need 1" of hair and I have so very little and it is falling out a bunch - that simply isn't possible at the moment, so they have asked me to do a "24 hour urine test". I will do this, eventually, but I am so exhausted that it is tough to even step outside my front door at the moment - just doing that only happens a few days a week because it takes all my fortitude!

Okay, we're off to a decent start! I've gotten a little lax over the past few days, I just need to rally and get myself on-track enough to get through my SIL's wedding later this month. I should be able to plan for at least half of those meals. I should also be able to work out as planned on those days.
This morning I decided I needed to sleep more than I needed to get to the gym first-thing. I'll be going later this afternoon while Hubs is out getting some glamour shots taken for his band, LMAO. I prepped breakfast burritos for myself, Chipotle-style carnitas bowls for lunch for both of us, and I'm also going to get a batch of enchiladas in the oven here in a bit. Other dinner plans for the week include a butternut-and-kale risotto with shrimp that I'm really looking forward to (I made the chicken stock myself!), and a medieval-style meat pie with turnip stew for 52 Weeks of Cooking. I also made a salmon and chickpeas dish while bestie and her partner were here that was really good, so I got more salmon and I'm gonna make that again sometime this week. I'm still trying to decide whether to make the risotto today or attempt that on a weeknight; it honestly isn't that hard.7 -

Thanks for including the Fat Loss Forever video in one of your recent posts. My first thought was "16 minutes is a long time!" so decided to just start listening and quit if I wanted to. I listened to it all and ended up finding a few podcasts that interviewed him. He makes a lot of sense to me. My main takeaways are that replanning and monitoring food intake seem to be important factors when losing and maintaining weight loss. Good stuff! I listen to podcasts when sewing and driving so it was good to be able to add a couple more to my list.

Hi All, I am a mom of 3, and after the third baby (gave birth mid 2019) I have not been able to shake off the extra weight I put on. Granted, covid did not help. I have been a member of MFP since 2017, and have used it with great success. I tried losing on my own, didn't get far, then in July 2021 I tried out Noom, it was ok but I find MFP to be much better. Just started getting serious on MFP in January with logging in and keeping track. From July to Nov. doing Noom, I lost 15.4lbs. Started using MFP for the past 32days (32day streak ) and have lost another 7.6lbs. Total loss to date ~ 23lbs

@77topcat - welcome! You've already conquered the hardest thing with the cancer, so you KNOW you can do this!
@sandielewis2001 - Congrats on the house! and Happy belated Birthday!
@danikat15 - Congrats on ONEDERLAND!!!! I see your regular, steady losses in my feed nearly everyday and it keeps me motivated since my weight loss tends to be more of a yo-yo or a rollercoaster. It trends down overall, but the inbetween spikes and valleys are....YIKES.
@StressedChaos - Maintaining through the holidays is a victory in and of itself. PLUS, you've shown that when you hit your goal weight you can maintain it.
@justanotherloser007 - I think people regain because they didn't truly learn how to moderate what they ate during loss. And then stopped monitoring it regularly, through weigh-ins, food logging, etc. I also think, from what I've seen on here, that slowing down the loss as you get closer to your goal is crucial so the adjustment to maintenance isn't startling. I love that you're altering your own clothes! I wish I knew how to sew. And, as someone with a larger chest, if there's a local bra/lingerie boutique near you, go get fitted. There's this really fancy one in a nearby town and I always go there to get fitted. I'm very up-front about what I'm looking for and the price point I'm willing to spend and they've always been really respectful of my budget.
Also @justanotherloser007 - praying that they figure out what's going on soon.
@sargemarcori - so you said yes to pizza, realized you'd rather have had a salad and DIDN'T eat cake? That feels like a win to me! Also, I love that one of your goals is to get over your BS.
@goal06082021 - those meals sound delicious!!! I've been very lazy in the kitchen the past few weeks and it's basically been crockpot or bust.
For all the newcomers and anyone I missed - welcome to the group! This group of ladies has been so supporting and welcoming.7 -

This month I had intended to focus on self-care. Schedule a massage and facial, find ways to relax and reflect on my success so far. Alas, life had other plans for me this month. On Monday we signed a contract to buy a new house (we have been low-key looking since last year) and now are in a rush to get our house listed and under contract. Then the crazy of inspections, paperwork, packing, moving, unpacking and all the details that it takes to get set up in a new house. So I am changing my February focus to be on stress management while staying on plan. I know I can do this, over the last year+ I have really built sustainable eating habits that make it easy for me to stay on plan.
Apparently, since I decided to focus on stress management this month, life decided to make it a real challenge. We are under contract to buy a house, we got our house on the market on Friday and are reviewing offers today. Expected move date is March 1st. Also on Friday, my mother-in-law fell and fractured both shoulders on either side of the ball of her neck. So the wife has a one way flight to Florida tomorrow morning. I am staying here to take care of all of the house sale and purchase details as well as packing and moving. Thankfully I have a strong support system around here and my boss is willing to be flexible with me when I need to take time away from work for things like inspection and walkthroughs. Cheers to new adventures and the sustainable habits that will keep me successful!13 -
@justanotherloser007 so sorry to hear you’re still dealing with all that. I hope they figure something out soon!❤️
@goal06082021 I want to come to your house! Your food sounds delicious!
@sandielewis2001 sorry to hear about your mother-in-law. Good luck with all the selling/moving activities!2 -

Well, I'm a little disappointed, but that's because at one point this week, I had hit 200.6. I'm holding onto the hope that I will be in one-derland this time next week. That said, it's still a net loss!
A couple of my coworkers, Reservists on the weekends, are trying to get me to join the Reserves. I told them I'm still pretty overweight and out of shape, but their response was, "Once a recruiter hears about your progress, they'll make sure you get in!" Lol. I think it's their way of trying to compliment me on my weight loss without it sounding like harassment. It's sweet.
For Mellow Monday, I did inclined walking on the treadmill. Went 1.5 miles at 3.5 mph on a 3% incline. My plan for Weight Wednesday is to go to the apartment gym so that I can use the 20 pound dumbbells, as the largest I own are 15 pounds. Fast Friday, I'm going to try to push myself into jogging 2 miles instead of 1.5 miles. Thursday, I plan on finally making my way to Planet Fitness and signing up for a membership/getting a trainer.7 -

I did it! ONE-derland! Admittedly I was 199.6 on Sunday but that lasted all of a day cause the next 2 days I was 200.6. I attribute that to exercising though as I will be doing week 1 day 3 of C25K tomorrow so my legs and hips have been a bit sore.
I haven't been under 200 since December 2017, so this is a big accomplishment for me!
My MIL has recently started all the testing necessary for a kidney transplant (luckily no dialysis yet) and my husband and myself are wanting to get tested to be living donors. My only issue is I need a BMI of 35 or less and I'm at 36.5 right now. 191 gets me to 34.9, so I need to lose another 8lb so I can try to help her. My husband has lost 60lbs (250 to 188, yay!) and right now is the first one of us to go thru testing to see if he's a match. Fingers crossed one of us can do it. Outcomes are better if a match is found before dialysis starts and if the kidney comes from a living donor..
Everyone seems to be doing well, keep up the good work!11 -

My main goal this month is to stay on top of logging what I eat. I was at my lowest weight of 155.8 back in 2015 but started a new, sedentary job that Fall and got off track logging my food and working out. I’m at my highest weight now 😩
My short term goals:
Get down to 195 lbs by the time I go to TN with my son for his band trip on March 16th.
Drink at least 64 oz of water a day.
Do a workout (walking, video, free weights) 3x/wk7 -
I've been kind of lurking this thread so far this month, so I wanted to pop back in here and share a story.
If you've been following these threads for a minute you might remember that my husband had surgery a few months ago to remove a spinal tumor. He had his 3-month post-op followup MRI yesterday - everything is healing well and looks great. Yay, great news! FIL wanted to celebrate that good news with a nice dinner at a Fancy Restaurant, a plan that was sprung on me at approximately 4 PM, after I had already eaten everything I had pre-logged except for the ~500 calories' worth of dinner and small dessert at home I had planned. Yadda yadda, bottom line is I came in 1200+ calories over budget last night. Real talk: I did not feel great afterward - I wasn't sick, but I definitely felt like I could have made better choices. There was a time, not even that long ago, when I could have come home and had a snack after that decadent dinner, drinks, AND dessert. Instead, Hubs and I walked around the complex where the restaurant was for a little while, and I went for another walk on my own after we got home. I reached my step goal - I wasn't trying to "make up for" eating too much at dinner, it doesn't work like that (and I'd have to walk a hell of a lot further to burn that many calories, anyhow - who has the time?). Rather, I was trying to get back to my normal routine as soon as the opportunity to choose presented itself again.
Your mindset does change. Your body does change. I'm trying hard to strive for body neutrality, so I specifically am not saying that I have regrets or am ashamed about eating 1700 calories in a single meal. Having done that does not make me a bad person. I have not committed a crime and do not need to be punished for enjoying a steak. What I have done is made choices, some of which had consequences that are unpleasant. I'm writing this as much as a reminder to myself as anything else - ya girl loves food, but it can be hard to remember how it feels to feast when one is no longer accustomed to doing so.
Going over-budget, even by quite a lot, on a single day is not enough to "ruin" anything. I did not wake up this morning 60 lbs heavier and back to square one. I acknowledge that I made choices that were not optimal yesterday. I resolved to choose differently today. I resolve to choose differently tomorrow. You're the one driving the wagon - if you fall off, it'll be right there waiting for you to get back on.
I feel like I'm starting to ramble a bit so I'll cut it off here, but this is just a reminder that life will continue to happen even and perhaps especially while you're on this journey. You gotta learn to roll with it.20 -
@goal06082021 - Congrats to you and the hubs for a clean scan! That's really exciting.
What is also exciting? Your mindset!! It can be SO HARD to leave all or nothing thinking behind, but it seems like you've gotten to a really good place! I strive for that, but do occasionally slip back into thinking I've "ruined" my day, that I've "failed", etc. Not all the time, or even the majority of the time, but it still happens.
Your post is a great reminder of the mindset we all need to have to keep on and to maintain our losses.10 -
I kind of see eating above the calorie budget on any given day like watching a movie. There's nothing wrong with enjoying a movie- in fact, it can be really good for you! But if you go to the movies or watch two movies every single day, that's probably not the best for you're mental or physical health. That doesn't mean never go to the movies. It doesn't even mean no last minute, otherwise unplanned movie sessions. It just means that netflix binge sessions or movie theater visits shouldn't be your normal baseline activity. Nobody should feel guilty about enjoying a meal with loved ones just like nobody should feel guilty about spending 2-3 hours in a movie theater. Life is meant to be lived. Glad your hubby is doing well and you have the opportunity to celebrate!7

@Making_Impossible_Possible Onederland!! Onedertastic!! Onederful!! Congratulations!!🎊🎈🎉
@goal06082021 Congratulations on the hubby's clean scan!! I can see why his dad would want to celebrate ❤️ Love your post on the reflection after the dinner. Very good progress for the not beating yourself up, and keeping a level head when you make a decision that wasn't in line with your weight loss goals!! I do love how if you fall off the wagon, it is literally right there where you were bumped off! That is onederful! I know, I know, I should probably cut it out - but, I mean you are in onederland so that is what you get!!
I choose to do January "at maintenance" and I can tell you ladies: it was tough. I had one day in January where I went 70 calories over maintenance, and I had a real temptation to think that I had then regained the +105 lbs back (also as I was attempting to go through my closet, I was pretty sure I would need all the size 28 clothes that I was sorting!). lols. Silly and unreasonable, I know. The next day I just made sure that I evened it out by eating 70 calories less and boom, done. That month I was .4 lbs less what I was at the beginning of the month, so I feel like I did well - even though I was stressing so much more than usual about my diet. I will have to create a maintenance habit, just like I have had to create a deficit habit. Just like everything else, one day at a time, checking habits, and reflecting on trends. It will take time, and a little creativity for the times that I choose to go way off maintenance.
Like @kenziestabes said, it is really about habit vs. a one time thing.
When I began my weight journey in 2013, I made some realizations. I was treating myself with food all the time. ALL. THE. TIME. Need to treat myself? Food. Indulgence? Food. Stressed? Food. Needed a little encouragement? Food. Many times a day, every day. I remember after coming to the realization that I would have to "reward" or "deal with stress" with something other than food - I was utterly stumped. I had no idea what else to do. For months (ahem 12 of them about), I tried to come up with ways to "reward" or "deal with stress". All too expensive for someone like me! I finally stuck with "spend time talking or just being with God". That helped me turn away from physical items that were inappropriate substitutes for what I really wanted and needed.
The mind game of weight loss is quite real. I think because it takes reflection, and honesty. Then, after the reflection and honesty - you have to figure out what you are willing to do about said issue. Which requires some tenacity, courage, and true grit! Denial was a real stumbling block for me.
Keep on keeping on ladies, you can do this! May your minds be enlightened with true wisdom from on high, and the knowledge to persevere.

2.2-pound loss! 😁 I can't believe it I've been eating a really big orange every night plus popcorn and sometimes cookies too for dessert! 🍊 But it was all included in my food diary, and I was under my calorie limit, so I don't need to feel guilty. I'm now in the "Overweight" BMI Score. I could not be happier that I'm no longer considered "Obese". I really hated that about myself. I have 28.6 pounds and 25 weeks until I reach my goal weight and it will also be the same weight when I met my husband 32 years ago. I've lost 71.4 lbs. I only need to lose 1.15 pounds a week to get there by August 1st. 💝🌻10 -

I am keeping up with good habits while working through all of the moving/buying/selling details. It's a bit harder with the wife out of town taking care of her mom but I know I can rely on my habits. It is tempting to give up my workout time to focus on packing or other chores but I have reminded myself that my workout is as much for my mental sanity as it is for health/weight loss.
Keep up the great work everyone!7 -

I managed to not log my weight on Tues so trying to remember what it was. Used Monday's weight but could have been lower as Wed was. Training at work had be focused on those things.
Goals are somewhat tossed in the air a bit but still trying to just focus on water at the moment. Once I get more focused on the water I'll include the others.
Nasal congestion is mostly gone away now. Second COVID test was still negative. I thought I should pick up more tests to do one weekly with my upcoming travel this month and next.
I got excited yesterday as a hotel waitlist came through for my trip next month. Getting this hotel lets DH sleep in when I'm getting up at 4am to do a yoga class and he doesn't have to drive me if he's taking his truck instead of mine on the trip.6 -

Enjoy a birthday splurge- I deserve it!
So this week went off the rails magnificently. Proof that even with the best intentions and plans, things happen. Sunday was my Poppop's first birthday in heaven. And I've dreaded this anniversary for awhile, not being able to call him. We planned to spend the day in our jammies and order Chinese to celebrate since he LOVED Chinese.
And then a close friend and coworker passed away last week and you guessed it, we spent my Poppop's birthday at a funeral. And it was hard. And it sucked. When it came time to order Chinese, we bought all the Chinese. And beer. And then because it was so expensive, we ate Chinese the next three dinners. I'm pretty sure my salt intake went through the roof this week. And I was so darn dehydrated!
But then I got back to counting and keeping to my calorie limit.
Which is why I was surprised this morning when I stepped on the scale and I lost 3.5lbs. I weighed myself twice because there is no way I had the week I did and lost that much in one day. Unless it was my body finally getting rid of all the salt? Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to see it! But I just don't trust it.14 -

@FushiaKat congrats on being overweight!!! Woo hoo!! Fog sisters unite!!
I am also as of this week, overweight BMI!! Not obese or morbidly obese for the first time since 1993, since I was 20 years old. 28 years ago… wow. I now have all these medium skirts in the closet - thank you thrift store! (I think my lower half was much larger than my upper half, because I have been losing slower on top. I am currently in large shirts, as long as they are fitted. Not fitted I “tend” toward mediums but not great.) I am getting to the point now where I don’t recognize myself in the mirror. I am surprised by who that lady is in the mirror. I have been putting off seeing a huge group of friends that I haven’t seen since Feb 2020. Most reactions are quite over the top I assure you. The long stares, the "it is more than just losing weight, you really look different".
This is one of the reasons I chose to maintain for the month of January, it is really stressful looking so different and being such a different size. Don’t worry, by February 2 I was stressed that I wasn’t actively in deficit! While it was nice to take a deficit break, I guess now being in deficit is a bit of a habit. It is also nice to not have to worry about what clothes will fit in the closet, or what I will have to sew before I can wear (maybe the things I have will work for 3-4 months).
Best part about sewing now at this size, is I have made some of my old nice dresses into long skirts. My hips are smaller inch-wise than what my waist previously was, so I got some really cute skirts!
As for the skin issue, for me it continues to be the arms. I am thinking that somehow, even though I live in a super hot humid region, I may have to figure out how to always wear 3/4 sleeves! They look ridiculous, and they didn't look great when I was overweight either. They looked horrible then, so they went from horrible to ridiculous. Right now is is generally cool outside, today the high will be 75 degrees, so I am fine. It is deep summer where I am not sure what I will be doing for these unsightly arms.

Get over my BS and get to work on this.

*10k every day, no matter what. 15k at least once a week.
*eat better food.
*Seriously. Eat. Better. Food.
So I've been doing crummy at every single one of my goals (seriously. I was over my calorie goal by a little or a lot every day, Friday to Wednesday. And I missed my 10k several times too!) but hey. as long as the weight is going down, I'm doing *something* right.
But I know I can't go on like this either, so I'll get back to it. Started yesterday, and still on track today! I may not make the exercise goals until I have another chat with my cardiologist, but I *know* I can eat better with his approval, so.5 -

I'm glad my story was helpful to some folks! Thank you for the encouragement, @justanotherloser007 - I love your posts, they're always so uplifting.
@danikat15, I'm sorry to hear about your double-dose of grief I hope the Chinese food was at least good. Bodies are weird, just trust the process, we got this
I completed Week 5 of Couch to 5k today - the version of the program I'm following, Week 5 is when the intervals ramp up. Day 1 has three 5-minute intervals with 3-minute walking breaks between them; Day 2 is two 8-minute intervals with a 5-minute walking break; and Day 3 doesn't have ANY walking breaks, it's just a straight 20-minute run (plus 5 minutes of walking at either end, for warmup and cooldown). I was not fast - endurance first, speed comes later - but I WAS running, not walking, continuously for twenty full Earth minutes. And when the app chimed and told me to "start cooling down!" at the end of those minutes, I did not immediately wish to collapse in a breathless heap. I walked home, came up the stairs, accepted the praise from the app for finishing, and then was able to just continue going about my business. And I felt GOOD! Not just emotionally, like definitely that for sure but also physically, my body felt good after what I had put her through, and before sunrise, even. There are four more weeks of the program; next week has a few more (longish) intervals on days 1 and 2, but week 6 day 3 and the rest of the remaining weeks are all single long intervals that get a little longer each week - 22, 25, 28, and finally 30 minutes in week 9. I am a little nervous about that prospect, but no longer worried about not being able to do it. Even if my hip or knee starts protesting, having taken off and restarted Week 4 showed me that I won't instantly lose all my progress if I need to do that again, which is really reassuring. Because that's the thing about running - if you go TOO long, you DO lose your endurance, pretty quickly.6 -
It's a go for my thyroid surgery on the 16th! This is really good because not only am I having constant low-grade pain on that side of my throat, but it's started to make it hard to swallow. I'm totally not dieting at this point because it's now "what can I eat that will make me stop being hungry that I can swallow without a painful spasm?" They'll keep me overnight to make sure I don't bleed too much and then send me home. Once I get this healed up, I'll pick up and focus on diet again and see how much progress I can make again before I go see the plastic surgeon about a breast reduction.12
