Still insanely busy with work, school and wedding planning. I am feeling MUCH better this week after allowing myself to eat whatever I wanted and sleep as long as i wanted with 0 exercise over the weekend. I think i needed to just crash and take care of me. It turns out I have a wicked ear piercing infection, and some sort of problem going on with my eyes, so my fiancé is suddenly dealing with a partially blind partially deaf lady, but I know we'll get through!

Does anyone have a food suggestion for probiotics? I have had a yogurt cup almost every single day now for 5 months as part of my diet so now that I am required to have one a day to offset the antibiotics I am almost gagging when I eat them! Please let me know if y'all think of anything!

A thousand hug/high five combos to @2tall4thisworld for getting down to the 150's that is such a great breakthrough! Also, I love your poison Ivy Costume idea - that is what I did for the past 2 halloweens and it was so much fun! I found it to be a very empowering outfit haha.

My cheers and support to all on their journeys!

@glassofroses This is going to sound dumb, but I have never even heard of that before! Is this a powder or something that you add to water like those fiber drinks? Can I buy these drinks in most grocery stores do you think? Or should I look for it at a healthy eating place like Whole Foods or an Organic shop? I live in New York State in the US if that makes a difference.

@RMC1995 You should be able to get them in the milk aisle in the supermarket, in the States they're called DanActive, I think. They come in packs of 4 or 8, they're basically a yoghurt drink like Yakult if you've ever seen that.

@rianneonamission Thanks, hon. It sucks balls, but it was as peaceful as it could have ever been and it ended a lot of suffering.

@rianneonamission Yeah, it was my dad. It doesn't feel real yet so I'm just trying to be as normal and as kind to myself as possible, like you say. If I don't want to eat, I try for something even if I don't finish it all but I don't berate myself if I don't. I made myself walk to the doctor's today to tell them he had passed rather than just calling them so I haven't just curled up in a ball. The funeral won't be for a couple of weeks which I'm grateful for in a way because I know I'm going to be a lot worse when all the sorting is done and all that's left is him being gone.

Sorry everyone for the serious talk. I'm an oversharer by nature. Plus if one person talking about grief helps another or gets someone to open up about their own hurt to ease it then I'm all for it.

Hi ladies, I have not been doing so well with logging, tracking, eating properly the last couple of weeks, the scales are reflecting this, this is my 3rd week with a gain we've had my parents living with us for nearly 2 weeks now, and I can't exercise properly as my conservatory has been taken over with their stuff, I'm not planning my meals properly, tonight for example is going to be an M&S meal. They are going to be with us for another week I think, so until then, I'm just going to have to try and be good when I'm at work, although my work planning has gone out the window too

You girls are all doing so amazing, well done @2tall4thisworld for getting into the 150's

@glassofroses I'm so sorry for your loss, big hugs to you

Hope everyone enjoys their weekends

PS my apple watch is broken too

I'm happy I finally reached my goal on Saturday, although to be honest with you when I weighed myself this morning (10/30) I was back up to 123lbs, so maybe next week's weigh in will give me a clear-er picture. Either way, I am happy to start eating at maintenance!

Ok it seems like my weight is leveling out which makes sense. I am not eating that much more, there is no way I was gaining that fast. OK now I will use 132 as my baseline and go from there.

Congrats everyone for doing so well and reaching your goals!

Happy Halloween ladies! Congratulations to those of you that continued to check in this month and push through. It seems that there are a handful of us that experienced some real personal devastations. @glassofroses my heart goes out to you through this difficult time.

I am so impressed with how many of us have continued this journey together even through all of the ups and downs. I'm happy to see so many new group members as well.
I'm looking forward to seeing you all in the November accountability thread!
As for me, I'm coming up on that dreaded shark week so I might experience a spike in weight and then hopefully a leveling off. Ultimately I would like to get to 154 and then just maintain for a little while.
Keep up the great work everyone!

Welcome to November everyone!

October wasn’t my month for being mental engaged with this, but I also didn’t throw in the towel completely, so I’m proud of that. It's been a bit of a transition month for me and I’m hoping November will level out a little bit. I’m ready to re-engage though and am glad to see that even being a little more involved at the end of October helped me make some moves in the right direction.

I have 2 big goals in life right now, this is one of them and the other is a financial goal I’m working toward. It seems the financial goal got a lot more of my effort in October but I’m happy to say I made more obvious progress on that one, so I’m still working toward something at least!

@glassofroses – I hope you’re coping well with everything. That all sounds so difficult but at least you’ve got some support around you. Take care of yourself and remember you’ve got virtual people to lean on if you need.

@RMC1995 – Congratulations on meeting your goal!! I hear maintenance can be it’s own challenge but if you conquered this you’ll conquer that too!!

@mrssunshine78 – I feel like you and I have been following the same path this month. I’ve been keeping up with you through the home page updates. It’s a new month and a new start though! We can get back in the game!! If you need any support, just message me. I got your back if you need it!

@bringbackthejoy – so sorry to hear about your injury. All that work in training for that to happen is big let down. I hope the zombie run gave you a feel for where you’re at in recovery and helped you make a plan about the half marathon. Be gentle with yourself. I ran a half without proper training and my knees have never been the same unfortunately.

@brianneangell08 – I hope you’re doing alright after your accident. I think it was a good idea to give yourself time to calm your mind and body down for a bit. Events like that can affect you more than you realize and a couple pounds is an easy fix in the long run. Overall health and wellbeing should come first.

@2tall4thisworld – You’ve been killing it this month! It’s been a big month of successes for you it seems and I’m so happy for you! I’m glad you’re settling in at school and getting a good routine set up. It’s crazy how much progress you can make when you’re in a good place and follow a good plan! Great job!

All right ladies, I'll see you in the November thread. And you'll see more of me there you did here!
