    ReStarting weight: 225 (May 2024)
    Goal weight: 175
    Final Goal Weight:145

    Weigh-in Fridays
    5/3 224
    5/10 225.8
    5/17
    5/24
    5/31

    Goals for May:
    -Log every day
    -Close all of my rings 5 days a week
    -Walk or exercise at least 30 min a day
    - May goal weight: 213

    Struggling with water retention this week, so hoping next week will go down rather than up on the scale.

    NSV…hitting 6k+ steps every day. I’ve closed my rings every day this week and I’ve walked and exercised daily.

    I took everyone’s advice on logging my meals and am trying to pre-log then update. I’m also trying not to focus so much on every detail, but getting as close as I can for my meals.

    Overall I feel good this week. More energy. My house is clean-ish and my kid’s last day of highschool is today. Hope everyone is having a good week!!

    2 days early for my weigh in because I’m going out of town and I wanted to know what my starting point was. I am full of delight, yall!

    I got out all my spring clothes yesterday and have been admiring myself ever since. Yes, the main reason I am doing this is so that I can healthy and love a long time but goodness the side benefits of looking FRIGGING AWESOME are fun to enjoy! I still have one set of clothes from my days in the 150’s that’s too small for me, but honestly I prefer myself in the 160’s, at least for now, especially if I am working out and have plenty of muscle. When I hit what the BMI calculator says is a “healthy” weight for me 3 years ago, I just looked hungry. 😂

    Yes, I know I sound very shallow but I’ve been trying to get back here for TWO YEARS. Can’t believe I made it!! Now to never leave 💪🏻 I am finding myself more motivated to hit my workout every morning and running errands throughout the day is easier because I have more energy. Hooray!

    @jenbroussard71 I believe in you!! I love chips and salsa too!! Chewing gum is my best friend at times like that.. especially if it’s super minty because then anything I put in my mouth tastes weird and it’s a reminder to me that I actually don’t want it in the long term!!

    @kristinwoods919 Nice loss!! Congrats!!

    @sarah12277 Good to see you again!! I remember you from my last time here. 😉 You got this!!

    @nebslp I completely agree, my routine helps me so much when I’m trying to stay on track! The hardest times are when I’m out, traveling, or doing something unexpected. Learning how to cope with “life” without the wheels coming off is a big challenge for me!

    @CupcakeCrusoe you are doing a great job of practicing maintenance!! That’s what I always tell myself when I hit a stall. Learning maintenance calories is part of the journey, so you’re just doing that now! Keep up the great work 💪🏻

    Total WL/G for the month= -3.6

    HI everyone, I'm still here! Things have been hectic so I've just been logging food lately and not keeping up with posting. 🙇🏻‍♀️ I'm still chugging along and earlier this month I reached 50 lbs lost! I'm halfway there to the edge of a healthy BMI... Just have to lose another 50 lbs. 😂

    My birthday is on Tuesday, May 14 and I won't be tracking that day. My husband is taking the day off work and we're planning to have a picnic with sandwiches and bubble tea for lunch then sushi for dinner with a French custard fruit tart for my birthday dessert. After that it's back on track, so I'm not worried about one day of indulgence setting me back. 💝 With the help of therapy, I'm trying really hard to reinforce healthier attitudes about food... So this will be one of my first chances to put what I've learnt into practice.🤞

    My main goal for this month is aiming to eat 30 different types of plants per week. It's gotten me to get a bit more creative with meal planning and my grocery lists so I actually think it's been a fun challenge so far. It'll get even more exciting going into summer when fresh produce becomes more inexpensive!

    I hope everyone is doing well and having a lovely spring! 💐

    225 on the scale

    NSV - I stayed on track this last weekend. I did not eat the chips and salsa, I had fajita meat with the veggies. For Mother's day I chose a healthy option - egg white omelet with spinach, turkey and avocado with fresh fruit. I am hoping to be released from physical therapy at the end of this month. I had back surgery in January and that went well, but when I returned to work I had horrible shoulder pain. I was worried that it was my rotator cuff, but after weeks of therapy we figured out that my subscapular muscle was extremely tight. I had a deep tissue massage with concentration in that area and I am 90% better!

    I got on the treadmill yesterday and even ran for a minute x3. It felt good, I am sore today so I guess it will just walk for a bit. I need to get some more weight off so it's not hard on my knees when I run.

    Well I am off to PT and then work. Hope y'all have a great Monday...

    Hello ladies!

    Thanks for starting this. I'm currently around 260. Been doing MFP for 3 weeks. My goal is 180 and will reassess at that time.

    Kicking all the habits I've learned over a lifetime is difficult. Wanting to turn to sweets and carbs after a bad day is a huge obstacle. And since I have major depressive disorder, there's pretty much always the pull of wanting to bury my feelings within food. Getting out of those habits is TOUGH. It's a process. Some days are better than others. I'm lucky to have the help of my hubby. We're doing this together.

    No change.. I seem to be maintaining my weight pretty well at around 180-186... Continuing to make exercising, no matter how small, more of a focus. Food choices have been a bit of an issue lately as it seems too often, even when I plan, we end up in a convenience situation and eating quick food or food out...

    I hit a new low today! 🥳 Tuesday was my birthday and I had a lovely picnic with my husband with sandwiches and bubble tea from my fav shops then we had a nice sushi dinner with individual desserts and that was just enough. I didn't track any calories on my birthday so I'm really happy to see a new low weight just a few days later. It makes me feel like I'm really learning some sustainable habits this time around. ❤️

    Going to try a new recipe this weekend for lemon dill chickpea soup, sounds refreshing for springtime. Aldi near me is having a special selection of German foods so I'm excited to try some new things from there too. Hope everyone has a great weekend! 🌞

    Yeah! I also count grains in the list.

    Here's what I usually have in a week although it ends up varying a bit. I keep a lot of frozen veg that are already chopped so I try to just throw a variety of things in my meals.

    Onion, carrot, potato, garlic, ginger, sugar snap peas, water chestnuts, red or green bell pepper, okra, mushrooms, tomato, butternut squash, corn, peas, edamame, seaweed, pickled cucumber or daikon radish, lettuce, spinach, cabbage, kale, quinoa, rice, chickpeas, black beans, kidney beans, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, apple, mango, banana, orange

    I even read all of your posts since I posted. I am finally starting to log my food and exercise today. I am still in the research mode to start eating foods that have the most health benefits. I haven't been planning my food yet regularly. I added in another session of aquafit today. I missed going with my husband. I went on a walk with my youngest yesterday and I am trying to add minutes or length to each walk. What I really want to up is NEAT (Non Exercise Activity Thermogenesis). I get tired just cooking. However I plan to get a walk in tomorrow and Sunday is our regular Aquafit day. I did get down a pound but didn't get on here to post it so I will when I lose again.

    Week 1 of working part-time was just like having a long weekend.
    Week 2 I did some research and planned/made some healthy meals and added a few walks in.
    Week 3 I am upping my exercise, started logging, but haven't planned meals or cooked much but luckily it doesn't all depend on me. However I was finally able to set a Drs appointment I needed to make. I have another I need to make as well.

    I live with my husband and my youngest who is grown. They had a great job but lost it with this downturn in the Tech sector. So they are looking for work. My husband just got a promotion and is working very hard. I am still planning what I want life to be like working less.

    @CupcakeCrusoe I think flatline is more of a win than we give ourselves credit for. You have made progress losing and you are now keeping it off.
    @Tsalite I realize now that I wasn’t really ready to retire fully because I needed to get my projects to where they were done or someone could take them over. I had the largest workload and some of the most complicated projects. I was getting stressed at the idea of leaving on my original retire date. I like my schedule and it is mostly remote. No new work is being given to me so I am just chipping away at finishing up projects I can and getting the rest to a good place to be handed over. So I think you have a good plan. I am definitely going retire fully though since they will want to replace me with someone fulltime and I can’t really do what I need to do in life now working part-time.
    @mmatcha_latte congrats on the 40 lbs lost this month! I have been researching what foods are healthy for us and have health benefits. So I plan to start planning meals with these foods. I liked your list of foods.
    @sharon81 This is what I am working on, - having enough time to plan and cook and avoiding eating out or take out. Not only is that when I lose but it is when I am eating foods that are good for us and avoiding the ones that aren’t.

    Officially in maintenance land and it feels so good! Since I need to severely limit carbs and sugar due to my PCOS and our fertility journey, not that much is changing now that I’m where I want to be.. except I’m going to be a little looser on weighing/logging and allow myself a few more calories. It was crazy to log into MFP this week and see 2100 calories as my allotment! I didn’t know it would automatically correct to maintenance.. so cool!

    I’ve continued to get in some good workouts this week - feeling good and looking good definitely feed into a higher motivation to work out for me. Which makes sense, because when I feel gross, I’m much LESS likely to workout. Feels good to finally be on the other side of the spectrum!

    I started a bunch more supplements this week for fertility and they don’t make me feel great. But, I’ve learned if I take them right before bed then I don’t notice it as much. I also noticed that my caffeine tolerance has gone way down.. I used to drink coffee by the gallon, but I’ve been cutting back and now about half a cup in the mornings is enough for me! I think the 20lbs I lost this spring must have something to do with it.. not complaining!

    I believe in you all, wonderful ladies! Keep on striving! We got this!!

    Well, I came back from my NY trip on Wen. and finally worked up the courage to put myself on the scale this morning. I'm weighing in at 192.5 (after breakfast, which i normally don't do). Checked the calendar.
    I may or may not have put on a half-pound, but I don't think that kind of fluctuation matters. It could be water, could be anything. My face and arms look thinner. That with all the rich foods I ate (ice cream, pizza, apple strudel, creme brulee). Tried to balance out eating out in the evenings with eating a little less during the day. So I maintained, no weight loss but I wasn't expecting that. I think I did OK.

    Good morning everyone!

    This weigh in is ridiculous, but maybe not considering I've been eating higher than the deficit I'd like. Still ridiculous given my average, lol.

    Very excited for a loss this week, we had a lot of social events this past weekend - graduation party, breakfast and dinner with friends. I even had boiled seafood, which is not bad calorie wise, but the sodium usually gets me every time. NSV I can wear my wedding rings again and I fit in a smaller size jeans (depending on the cut of the jean). Another NSV was that I received some not good news from my son and I did not run to food to make me feel better. That is a big deal for me since I tend to try to use food to regulate my emotions. My focus this week will be movement. I need to get moving before it gets too hot down here in the South.

    Hope you all are doing well. We have about 2 weeks left in May - let's make them count!

    Starting weight this month: 662
    5/6: 260
    5/20: 257.8

    I weigh daily since I vary a lot and I can see the trend better. I check in when I have made progress.
    MFP says I have lost more than 8 pounds total. I got down to low 250s last fall after 2 trips where I was more active but working full-time was killing me since then. Working part-time is starting to help.

    I think I will concentrate on getting exercise 1st. I can’t do it all at once especially with working part0time. What I need more is NEAT (everyday activity – cooking, cleaning, gardening etc.) I went to Aquafit on Friday but my shoulder was hurting me the next day so we didn’t go on Sunday our usual day so my plan to add another Aquafit day didn’t work. However I did go on a walk instead and my husband did some yard work. Yesterday my youngest and I cleaned. They want to work on things I am not ready to tackle yet until I get my living room, kitchen the way I want. However what we did cleared up space for things I want to get out of the living room. Today they have an orientation for a potential job so I can clean what I want. They are making dinner tonight so food is taken care of.
    Last summer we remodeled our kitchen so my kitchen was in the living room. The contractor was so late at finishing we had to go to our planned trip to France before we could do much organizing the kitchen and living room. We have since gotten the kitchen together except for some tweaks I would like to make. We also worked on the living room but there are some things that still need to be done. Like putting my paintings back up.

    Usually on Monday mornings I would stop off for a latte and pastry on the way to work. However since this week I am working remotely the whole week I can have healthier breakfasts at home everyday not just the days I worked from home before and we have good leftovers for lunches right now. So there is a natural improvement in food even though I haven’t gotten that organized yet.
    Just so you know my sister lives in France and we have been trying to go for years. In fact we were thinking of it as my youngest’s graduation trip but the pandemic put a stop to that idea. The kitchen floor was wearing away as were the countertops so it had to be done as well.

    @girlinkaz744 Congrats to getting to maintenance! You are right even without other health issues maintenance isn’t usually easy.
    @lisakatz2 I think you did okay too. I went to France last fall and ate all the rich French foods and lost weight since I was so active.
    @CupcakeCrusoe enjoy the birthdays and I hope performance goes well. It is hard to track weight when it fluctuates. Anyway that is how it is for me.
    @krabuck seems like the Sunday weigh ins are showing your progress.
    @danikat15 glad about your nice surprise yesterday
    @jenbroussard71 I really want to get back into my wedding ring. I remember when we lived in Houston and I had to get my exercise 1st thing in the morning or forget it.

    It’s been a bit, but I am re-recommitting (in really, there are many many more ‘re’s’). I leave for Disney in four weeks, so I am committing to:

    - Finishing the BeachBody Fire and Flow program (day one done today)
    - Log my food daily

    No specific weight goals for these four weeks. Starting weight 237.8. We’ve got this!!

    @KeriA I too like exercise first thing in the morning. This morning I walked 30 minutes on the treadmill (I was able to jog for one minute four times). In 2022 we remodeled our house - we had the zombie house of the neighborhood. What was supposed to take only 4 months lasted 7 months! It was crazy moving out and living apart from my husband, but the end result is so worth it. We love being in our house and we have figured out that we like entertaining now that we have a comfortable space.

    @TonyaL1783 I love going to Disney! We are going in November with a group of 10 (5 adults & 5 kids between the ages of 12 - 2 yrs. I cannot wait. You will definitely get lots of steps in, we usually average about 8 miles a day.

    I am Binge Eating Disorder Recovery and moving into Intuitive Eating.

    Hi all.

    I am still working on weight stabilization.

    Now, we are focusing on hunger and fullness cues. At each meal or snack we rate how we are doing before and after eating. How content, peaceful, or satisfied are we? All food is just food. There are no good and bad foods anymore. This is a relief. I still struggle with this sometimes after years of brain washing by the diet industry. The diet industry makes 60 Billlion dollars a year. My therapist reports, "They find 60 Billion ways to get us hate ourselves." Sad but true.

    This process has been about taking my power back and finding the real me behind the ED voice. The perfectionism and harsh, abusive tone of this voice is insane. I tell the voice to shut up or mind it's own business. It is not the ruler of my brain anymore. I am on week 9. I still deal with emotional eating at times. There are many different excercises to combat this. Sometimes I still get super overwhelmed with the goals, skills, tools, support, etc. on a weekly basis. No need to overwhelm myself. I have the rest of my life. Hence, I want to feel comfortable with my skin when I look in the mirror. I want to feel empowered, capable, and confident. I could care less what number ends up on the scale.

    Next month I have an electrocardiogram. I can't wait to see what my EF number is.

    We were dealing with body positivty today. I have been berrating, abusing my body for so many decades...I am not sure what that looks like in entirety. The 2 therapy sessions are usually hard hitting. "Do the opposite" is a skill we have learned. For many of the groups, I have used this tool. We were asked to start at the top of your head to the bottom of your toes and focus on all the good things that your body does for you. We have 12 different systems. List each system and see the benefit for what it does for you. In my opinion, we all were given an incredible gift.We need to honor it and treat it well, listening to our intuition for what it needs at any given time.

    Do you think when I had heart failure and was diagnosed with sudden cardiac death, I cared about weight, shape, or size? No, I didn't care anymore. It had zero value. I needed to get an ICD put in my body to live. I feel it 24 hours a day. Sometimes it is more tender than other is and is a size of a Post-It in my body. I am thankful to be alive. A lot of things don't matter when we are facing death. Most of all, did you live your life the way you truly wanted to, or did you hold back?

    I am learning to eat "just enough" to feel nouruished and satisfied, not overstuffed and sick.

    I have been struggling to work out since I hurt my back last week. I am fine now. Will get back to it as soon as possible. Glad that the gain wasn’t more. My husband did comment that my stomach is smaller. So that is great even if the scale is not showing any loss.

    A loss is a loss no matter how small. 😁Happy to see movement. I did see 181 on Friday. I haven't gotten a lot of organized exercise in but have been working my booty off with outdoor work, construction on my son's place and everyday clean up in my own house. I swear I clean it in some capacity every day and it's trashed every morning. 🤔
    Happy to see everyone's successes and determination! We got this, ladies!!

    Did my weigh-in and measurements today (Wednesday is my weigh-in/metrics day). Weight is 191.5, measurements are the same. I was hoping to lose a pound this past week, instead the scale shows a half-pound. At least it's going downward. I don't consider this a plateau; not enough time has passed.

    Looking forward to reaching the awesome 190! Almost there! Also my face and arms are looking thinner, which is a plus. I think my body is adjusting to the downward trend.
