I don't know if I should include my daily weights or just my official Monday weights.
MaelynMayhem, I'm only doing weekly weigh ins for this challenge. The dailies on Give me 10 days challenge is enough.0 -
I am trying to lose 100 lbs over the next year+. I can't even believe I have that much to lose but there it is. I am 5ft tall and was weighed in at 240lbs last week at the Drs office. To be a healthy BMI I should be closer to 125lbs. I started officially Sunday 4/15/2018 - I am trying a primarily whole food plant based diet with the exception of some yogurt (probiotics suggested by my Dr.) I'm not sure what I'm doing really but I thought this group would help!6

Great progress this week, @tiabirdie56! You're so close to breaking through that 200 mark!
@MaelynMayhem, I think whatever keeps you most motivated is fine. I'm just including the most recent two so that I can see my recent progress plus a record of my total loss to date. My thinking is that this is a long haul and I don't want my posts to get clogged up.
@lexi3881 welcome! I know how you feel; starting, with so much work to do, is overwhelming. In my experience I am most successful when I figure out what my personal weak points are and work on those. For example, the meals I cook for my family are pretty healthy. I love snacks and treats, though. I've had to stop buying them cold turkey. You'll have it figured out in no time!2 -
I am 5'4" and began my journey at 221lbs... I am currently down to 205lbs and have increased my daily water intake. I still have another 60lbs to lose at least4

I'm joining in.
Hello everyone!
I am 40 years old, 5'9" tall and I currently weigh 308 lbs. My highest weight was 330 and I have lost 22lbs since August 2017. My biggest challenge is portion control because I grew up with a large family that served large portions. I didn't realize until recently that even though I cut down on my portion sizes, it's still too much. When you've never known proper portion sizes it is a bit of a wake up call when you see the difference. So, along with exercising I am now counting my caloric intake and meal prepping every week. This has truly been helping me to understand what and how much I am eating.
Thanks for having me here!3 -
Need knee replacements but when I saw doctor, he said i had to lose 150 pounds first. That was in January only lost 16 so far.3

Progress: 10.8
Close to my next goal, when I get to reward myself with lots of new socks (I love socks!). I'd love to make it by the end of this month just for the sake of tidiness, but I'm not pinning my hopes on it.
I stepped off plan a couple of times this week, but I tried to make sure it was just by a bite or two and I worked it into my daily allowance of calories. A couple of spoonsful of ice cream on Monday, two Pringles yesterday. I'm working on being able to have a small taste of what I like and then stop. I'm still not about to have ice cream in the house!
