We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for almost 5 years with amazing results!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Up and down - just riding the waves of life. 🌊 🏄‍♀️ (My new mantra-3/19/22)

I’m new! Not to tracking but to these 10 day challenges. I like the concept because it sounds a lot more manageable than tracking forever!

Day/Weight/Comment
7/6: 142 - after several weeks of pretty consistent 16:8 IF while eating whatever I wanted, I have not lost any weight, so I decided I need an additional tool/more accountability

Ok, new member, joining because I'm at the heaviest I've ever been and it's very visible around my waist. Also because I need to just become more mindful of what I'm eating, and hopefully lose enough weight to feel good about myself for a wedding in September. I want to make sure to record what I eat so that I can calorie count. Aiming for 1200 calories a day.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.

• Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
• A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
• Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
• The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
• Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
• The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
• When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
• Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

I wanted to join your group because of all the encouragement I've read in past posts. I live in AR. My goal is to change my habits slowly and hopefully weight will follow.

Goals this round:
1. Drink 4c water (I drink too much diet coke).
2. cardio of some form 30 min/day

Hi all! I used to do this challenge a while ago but stopped...but now I'm back!

I'm Christie, an Aussie, 36yo with a 3.5yo son at home. I work full time as an accountant, so I'm chained to a desk for 9 hours a day! Last year, I lost 30 lbs with the help of this challenge and a few others here on MFP. But around 9-10 months ago, I had a bit of a breakdown mentally. I think I had put too much pressure on myself and so I dropped out of every group I was in on MFP, except for one. Unfortunately, I have since gained over half of that loss back. So I'm here again, taking baby steps to improve my health more every day.
