Weight Loss after 40

Daily weight loss blurbs about my highs and lows, struggles and motivations. I will also post my daily weigh ins.

    I have been struggling to loose weight for over 10 years. At times I can do well but I usually end up sabatoging myself. I’m ready to make changes and see that scale go down once and for all. Avoiding alcohol is a huge hurdle for me. Now that it’s summer it’s tempting to have a beer or two but that really stalls my weight loss and motivation.

    Morning weigh in: 186.4 😬. My goal is 140.
    Having a celebratory dinner at a hibachi place was challenging. I believe I did well. Next time I’ll skip the rice and get sauce on the side.
    Feeling motivated and optimistic today!

    Sound very much like me, I go through phases of losing weight then it goes back on. Trying to realise that I'm not getting any younger and I need to sort it now.

    It sounds like you are making good choices, keep at it, it's not always a 'switch' that flicks, it's work, tough choices and consistency.

    If you keep posting, I'll follow and share my own experience. Also 40+ btw
