    Not a good day I hosted a fundraiser for Guidedogs uk afternoon cream tea, only had one scone with jam and cream. It was lovely. Don’t feel to guilty it was in a good cause.

    I can't seem to drop under 240... I've been stuck here for a couple weeks. :(

    I know weight loss isn't linear but it's frustrating.

    I am in the same boat, I have been stuck for about a week in a half ( I know that's not a long time but ugh ) no movement ..Just waiting for that whoosh loss to happen. ..

    Hello!

    New to this board and looking to make some connections in my weight. It’s been quite awhile since I have really given it my all to lose weight. I have 2 boys, ages 2 and 5, and I stay at home. I find motivation to keep going on weight loss difficult. But at 240 and NEVER thought it would be this bad.....EVER.

    I hope to talk more with you all! 😊

    Okay, so last week began with my birthday cheat day 🎂 and ended with a vacation, so my calories have been a little all over the place. I only got one gym day in, but I did a lot of yardwork, cleaning, and moving stuff around all week, so it wasn't all bad.

    This summer seems like it's going to be a little hectic, not being home and near my gym as much as I'd like. But I think if I can bring along my food scale and keep active as best I can, I should be alright! 🤞🤞🤞

    SW: 304 lbs (Nov 2018)
    CW: 281 lbs
    End of July GW: 277 lbs
    GW: 238

    Hope it's not too late to join. I've been back to using MFP the last couple of week tracking all of my food intake. I'm trying to hit between 1600 - 1800 calories no lower.

    I've read that some of you are stuck, maybe try increasing your calories a bit for a week and see if that helps, or if you're low carb, have a higher carb day. I've heard that if you are in a plateau you need to switch it up a bit. It's about hormones for us women.

    Lol not sure why my food resulted in woos. It's not that weird.

    Might try to find an alternative to chicken thigh though. It's kinda fatty. I like my chicken lean.

    We were wooing the first part of your post where you made it into the 230's.

    It's probably just people who think they are cheering you on!

    Recommend no cereal in am, maybe yogurt or cottage cheese and berries, add a little am snack like veggies and a couple of nuts, for lunch skip any butter or oil, add seasoning or lime or hot sauce.
