@DeshotelK You'll get back into it, you got this!!
@o0kody0o Intermittent fasting has a loooot of benefits but can be tough to get into at first, if you have trouble jumping right into it, you can shave off time out of your eating window slowly and ease into it...
@SLIMn2016 A loss is still a loss.....you're doing great!
@grizziegriz Hang in there, maybe it's time to change things up and see what happens?! Sometimes changing your routine helps.
@melodyis4reals We have all been where you are. My best advice is to track track track, and when things aren't going as planned, you have something to go back and look at to see what you can adjust to try to get things moving again. But it's really hard to know what you need to adjust when you don't really know what you've been doing...and the daily posts are really centered around helping to create a healthy habit and get you thinking about your daily routine. Hang in there, take it a little at a time. Track, and when weigh in day comes, then you see if you feel that you're on the right track or if you need to make adjustments. You got this! We're all in this together!
@digger61 Another great day!!
@batgirl140 A small drop is still better than no drop, you're still chipping away at it, keep it up!!
@vicky2767 Great job, a loss is still a loss and hope you have a great weekend!
@OkieGina You're doing great, keep up the great work!
@CourtneyLomonaco I think that happens to us all, the important thing is to move forward, you can do this, you can take back control, you GOT this!
@tdrjustus3 You're chipping away at it!! Keep it up!
@Bm00re2u I'm sure you're still getting a lot of activity in, I bet you can't wait to get into your new house!!
@tinak33 100 squats isn't nothing! You're doing a great job!
@gjaholy33 Great exercise!! You're doing great at getting back into it after having such a tough time with pain.3 -

🗣Comments/Goals: Tough week of fasting and a small loss---bt I'm certain I would have gained at least a few pounds from last weekend otherwise, at least going in the right direction. Tomorrow is date night, so a little bit of cheats for dinner at a magic show with apps and drinks.
Nice day enjoy your date night1 -

Feeling extra stress over family members but spoke to this individual this morning and am excluding them from my circle right now. I am already in danger of binging again and don't need any toxicity to push me over the edge. Each day is hard for me as it is but by His grace which gives me the strength to stay positive so really do not need anyone to push me backwards.

Daily check in: May 17
Track: No
Calories: saved my cals for dinner so think I did ok
Exercise: Yes. My sis is visiting 😁 and we went for a 1.5 mile walk
I made myself a b-day dinner, pulled pork and haluski and sautéed veggies. It was so good and enjoyed it a lot. Ice cream today instead of cake. Meals out too hoping I do ok. Not sure I’ll track today or tomorrow just plan on making good choices.3 -
Thanks for the tip Nancy, I will try 6:1 for the first week as I think it’ll ease me into it, and then switch to 5:2 after that. I know you’ll get your weekends under control again, you can do it 👌 If you don’t mind me asking, what sort of weight loss did you see when you started IF? Was there much of a difference compared to what you were losing prior to starting IF? I’ve got a feeling these last 7lbs or so are going to be a bit stubborn, so I was thinking that 5:2 might just give them a nudge 😊
I saw big losses (of about 1-3 lbs--not being able to lose anything beforehand) once I started 5:2--- and I got down to within 3 lbs. of my goal... if you follow it precisely, it will jog your metabolism and jolt the fat loss--- it really helps if you've hit a plateau too.1 -

I came across this quote and i love it! Some days we might fall of the wagon, over-indulge and feel like we’ve messed everything up. BUT that was yesterday...we just move on from it, forget about it and get right back on track!

Track: mostly
Calories: over
Exercise: chores and a walk
Water: about 130 oz
I tracked everything except the small ice cream sundae after dinner.....
And I was already over my calories when I had it.
It was just one of those days..... and I did end up uncomfortably full. That wasn't fun. I never remember that feeling when I am eating, though!0 -

As you know I need more electrolytes and I finally found a product that I LIKE $20 for 90 servings
It doesn't have any after taste either like regular stevia products do. So I drink one water bottle (73oz) of these a day.
A lot of the ready made drinks and electrolytes powder out there have sucalose, ASPARTAME or some other form of chemical contrived sweeteners that causes side affects.
I AM STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS AND NEED TO FIND WHAT WORKS FOR ME.3 -

😬Exercise: None today apart from some walking
💬Comments: Today was my first day of trying IF (6:1 to start with then moving to 5:2) and I think I done quite well for my first time. I had 3 smaller meals and some snacks, totalling approx 554 cals. I found it easier than I thought it would be and managed to fit it my oatmeal, fruit, veg, fish, popcorn & yoghurt!1 -
Daily Post: May 19th
Track: Yes
Calories under goal: No, over by 60 calories but I was way under yesterday
Exercise: 6,200 steps
My co-worker and I amended our step challenge agreement with each other. We initially agreed to walk 10k steps every day but we amended it to "average" 10k steps a day. That way we can take a small break on Sunday if we did well during the week. I really intended to walk 10,000 steps today but I slept half of the day .....I guess I needed it.
