    Hi all. Joining this late, as I just bought a scale, but hoping this'll help me be more accountable for any gains/losses I make.

    Name: Linsey
    Age: 26

    Starting Weight May 29th: 260 (roughly, I was weighed at the doctor's office a two weeks before I started tracking)
    Goal Weight July 3rd: 245-246

    Weigh In Week

    June 5:
    June 12:
    June 19: 250-251 (scale kept switching between the two)
    June 26:
    July 3:

    Total LBS lost this week: 2.8
    Total LBS lost this month: 10

    Weekly Goals: Exercise a minimum of five days a week, walk at least 5000 steps a day, more if the weather permits.

    Struggles: Weekend binge eating and trying to curb my sodium intake.

    Successes: I've stuck pretty well to my self imposed goals so far, but the more time I spend trying to lose weight, the more I'll need to keep myself in check. I used MyFitnessPal a few years ago when I went from 380 to 198, but ended up abandoning the app and tracking my diet and exercise levels after that, which turned out to be a bad idea. So I'm hoping taking part in something like this will help me with my personal accountability.

    Starting Weight May 29th: 182.3
    Goal Weight July 3rd: 170

    Weigh In Week

    June 26:
    July 3:

    Total LBS lost this week: +2.5
    Total LBS lost this month: -1.4

    Weekly Goals: Don't let the weekends derail me.

    Struggles: Weekends are a struggle with me. I don't go crazy over my calories, but I tend to not drink as much water and so I retain a lot of water weight through the weekend. Also dealing with PMS water retention

    Successes: None. I'm pretty unhappy with this past week.

    Don't stress it. Just pinpoint where you went wrong , learn from it, and move forward.

    I joined the group but there isn't a place where it says registration discussion so I can register so I either did something wrong or I haven't been approved for the group yet.

    Good Morning and Happy Tuesday. I hope you all had a great start to you week and that you have set your realistic goals to achieve and working your butts off to reach them!

    Todays question:

    Do you use supplements?
  • mari_moulin
    mari_moulin Posts: 3,717 Member
    The only kind of supplements I use are all natrual stuff like dandelion capsules for cleansing and green tea capsules. I also drink green tea daily. Thats all.

    Do you use supplements?

    Yep! On days that I work out (usually 6 days a week), right when I get home I drink a scoop or two of whey protein powder mixed with almond or cashew milk. I usually have trouble getting my protein macros in so this is a good "meal". My appetite is much smaller than it used to be and drinking my macros is so much easier! I've also been testing out a pre-workout supplement, only once or twice a week. I probably won't stick with it though because coffee does the job of perking me up too :)

    Do I use supplements?

    Yes. I have to as a vegetarian. I take a multivitamin with iron and B12. I also use whey protein powder just because I find it difficult to get all the protein I need.
