    Last week kind of stunk for me with client lunches, and dinners out with friends. Gained 1.5lbs but had a great time with friends so that's a plus. How is everyone else doing?!

    Hey everybody! First of all, it's so great to see so many people that want to support each other.

    I started in June, and I have lost 55 pounds. I have another 30-50 to go. I'm 30 years old, wife, and mom to a six-year-old boy. If anyone would like to add me, that would be wonderful.

    I have a feeling that's how this week is going to be for me!

    This is really good for me to read. One of the things my girlfriends and I love to do is eat dinners out (and of course there is wine :smile:) but I can often feel guilty after, especially because I SO badly want to lose this weight. I love that you said "but i had a great time with friends" because I often forget to put everything in perspective.

    How's everyone doing with weight loss? I've only lost on average 1lb a week and I'm not losing every week. So frustrating, but I know it's my fault. I also haven't logged the past 2 days, so I'm doing that again. Already logged breakfast. :smile:

    25, 26 next month looking to lose about 50 or a little more!
  • I'm 29 and just hit my goal weight of 145 (starting at over 200#s). Now I'm pregnant and will have to be careful during this pregnancy not to undo all of my efforts. I'm always willing to inspire, motivate, and encourage you. Feel free to add me. I lost naturally without fad weightloss products, and in eight months I'll do it again

    Hi, I'm checking in with everyone... I'm terrible at consistent "check in's" but this is where I'm at:

    I have lost 20# since January 1 and am working on the next 10, and then the next 10 and then the last 10 to eventually hit my goal of 50# lost. I started attempting a Whole30 in January, and made it 24 days in. I started another try at Whole30 this past Monday and am now on day 5. I am also on day 5 of the 30 day shred by Jillian Michaels. :smile:

    Going good this year. I have a wedding in 3 weeks and I'm pushing hard also to fit into a bridesmaid dress! :wink:

    I love this! I'm freshly 29 and I really don't know exactly how much I want/need to lose...somewhere between 30-50lbs? All depends on how I look and feel. The last time I was around 140 (what I would be after a 50lb loss) was wayyyyyy before kids...we're talking college days. I currently am MUCH stronger so I think it's possible for me to "look" 140 but actually weigh more.

    Yeah? Yeah.

    Feel free to add me please!

    *side note*
    I'm currently breastfeeding (BF) kiddo #2. She's almost 1yr and is showing signs of being ready to wean. My body holds on TIGHT to fat while I'm BF. Also, I (and the hubs) don't feel as though our family is complete yet so I'm trying to time out weaning the baby at the right time so I can give myself a bit to burn off the residual fat from 2 babies before we try for baby #3. I don't feel rushed but I'm definitely motivated! I'm also mentally preparing for the reality that I might decide to hit pause on the weight loss before trying for baby #3. Not because it's not important to me, but because my whole mentality around weight loss is the healthiest it's ever been. I'll be active and eating well my entire life. The weight will come off. There's no fear about that. So if it's time to try and I'm not at goal then the goal get "paused" until baby #3 is conceived, born and weaned

    I'm so fed up with myself. I haven't fully logged in here (despite what mfp says lol) and I've only gained weight. I am so sick of being fat! Every day is the same thing: wake up, tell myself that I'm going to eat healthy and log my food. I never do. Why? Because this is *kitten*. I know that I love food and have an unhealthy relationship with it. I don't know how many times I need to relearn this lesson before I'm guilty of it again-that for me, that I need to fill this empty void with something meaningful, not with food. Also, I need to meal prep to avoid all of my potential pitfalls and I need to keep myself accountable by logging on mfp. I am sooo sick of being fat and unhappy. When is this going to end? Will I ever lose weight? Uggghhh.

    Some ideas for becoming happier:

    Read
    Learn something new
    Exercise
    Volunteer

    What are some revelations you've had lately?

    What are some revelations you've had lately?

    I was in a very simillar mindset just 2 Weeks ago so i can totally understand you.

    2 revelations i had since then:

    1. It made me cry as a grown man to fully realise and admit to myself that my Emotional Eating is an addiction just like beeing a drug addict or alcoholic. In some ways drugs are worse but with food you cant even stay away from it because you need it on a daily basis. How do you get off an addiction when you cant avoid your "drug" ?

    2. I need to cut myself some slack and quit beating myself up when i have a bad meal, bad day or even a bad week. The damage you can do with one bad day is suprisingly limited. You can only very little actual fat from one day to another no matter how much you ate. I will never give up on my long term goal and not beat myself up again over a bad short term stretch.

    I am 26 and looking to loose 60lbs it's truly inspiring to see other people who are motivated and still battling the challenge called life. With a husband, kid, full time job and going back for my masters I just don't feel like I have time for me and I feel like that is the hardest part for me. Looking to gain some support through this group!
