Hey team
As I’m edging towards my GW, I know I’m starting to get a bit “too relaxed” now, if that makes sense. I’m eating little bits of things I don’t normally (chocolate for example). I suppose it’s a good thing that I’ve recognised what I’m doing because then I can focus on fixing it. As many of you know, I started at 184lbs and my original goal weight was 147lbs, and I’m about 2lbs away from that right now. I told my family that I think I’d like to get down to 142lbs instead and they were saying things like “I thought you were going to stop at 147?”, “ you’ve already lost a lot of weight” and “you really don’t want to lose much more”. I’ve never felt this healthy before and my confidence has soared but I’m made to feel like I’m doing something wrong 🤷♀️
Anyways, I just felt like I had to get that off my chest 😅
On a more positive note:

TOM sucks, I’m in the same boat too and sooo bloated it’s unreal! But you’re right...tomorrow is the start of a brand new month and we’ve got this 🌷 💕

Week May Week 5
PW: 465.9lbs
CW: 461.2lbs
Goals/comments yay so happy despite my slip ups I'm still going down. 76.8lbs lost so far in 2.5 months still have 3 months to lose 100lbs so I won't have to do the surgery.
Do you know what I just found out yesterday?? My health insurance won't cover me seeing a nutritionist but they will cover the baraitric surgery UNFREAKING BELIEVABLE!
I asked can I appeal this they said only if my doctor write a letter of Medical necessity, which is going to be kinda difficult cause she wants me to have the surgery. So I guess I'm going to have to be a little creative when I have the discussion or look for a free nutritionist.
I am just concerned cause my calories are only averaging about 600-700 a day (even though I'm satisfied) but I want to lose weight the healthy way and not be malnourished.
STILL STAYING POSITIVE JUST CONCERNED 🤔🤔🤔3 -

Allergies were acting up from all of the dust being stirred up in my house with the renovations. Took a Benadryl and it knocked me out. I slept sooooo well last night! I hadn't been sleeping well for about a week and was exhausted, my anxiety was acting up, and I was just generally in a down mood. I feel so much better today!
So sorry for those allergies but at least you got that much needed rest sometimes it is all we need to get back on track.Tuesday Check in

I went over my calories on purpose. I've been under for several days and I'm trying not to stay at the same calorie level all the time.
It was hard getting my steps in today. It was one meeting after another....so I was pacing the halls between meetings and finally got over 10,000.
That's one way to get your steps. Sometimes we need to shake up our calorie intake and it makes an huge difference for the better most of the time.Daily Post (Wednesday)

I was on target with my calories. Then late last night my daughter sat by me with a box of Cheese Nips while we watched Paranormal Caught on Camera and I sort of just snacked with abandon on those crisp cheesy little squares of yummy goodness. Don't know how much I actually ate.
Don't sweat it, it happen. . .move on. I'm sure many of us have times like these😍😍😍Wednesday Check in:

Baby girl's 3rd birthday! I had cake, and yummy dinner, and pre-planned all of it! I actually think I over estimated some of the calories, but that's ok. I was full by the end of the day and that's all I cared about. And the birthday girl loved her cake and presents! Still not sure how to blow out candles, but that's ok. hahaha2 -

Hey team
As I’m edging towards my GW, I know I’m starting to get a bit “too relaxed” now, if that makes sense. I’m eating little bits of things I don’t normally (chocolate for example).

As many of you know, I started at 184lbs and my original goal weight was 147lbs, and I’m about 2lbs away from that right now.

Exactly stay true to yourself. You're doing awesome and if you do not like where you're at now keep going until you get there. ROOTING FOR YOU! BE ENCOURAGED!1 -

Years ago, when I was at my lowest weight, I weighed 165. I'm 5'9" and have a fairly broad frame. I felt great, but wanted to get down a few more pounds. Mainly because I was in between sizes and 5-10 lbs more would have put me comfortably in a lower size. My family was horrible to me. I was always the "big" one and for the first time was the smallest. My mom was the worst. She's overweight and is miserable, but does nothing to change it. My older sister was always the small one and over the last 5 years has become overweight. Once I started gaining after my injuries, both were completely different people to me. So much nicer.
I say that only you know how you feel and what your goals should be. Don't let anyone else's opinion matter more than your own.3 -

Thanks for this. I’m kinda in the same situation with my sis. She’s always been slimmer than than me and never commented on my weight before when I was heavier. She’s now about 15 pounds heavier than me and is one of the people telling me not to lose much more weight etc.
I totally agree and will try my best not to let others opinions matter more than mine 😊
