A little about me. My name is Rose. I'm 5'1", 52 years old. I should probably weigh 130-140 pounds but am currently 210. I derailed myself and gained back most of the weight I lost during February, March and April (started at 213 got down to 202 at one point). May, June, and July I've been fighting a losing battle with binging and overeating. I'm inconsistent with exercise too. I'm pretty much starting over from scratch. I hope your support and being in a team will move me to exercise more and eat healthier meals without all the snacking on less nutritious junk food. I'm looking forward to doing my best.

@Arc130 Welcome!

Hello all, I'm new here , joining for August. I have never tried to lose weight with a community like you guys before, so maybe this is what I have been missing! A little bit about me: Ive been fighting my weight off and on my whole adult life and have been on the very fit end of the spectrum but I'm now officially the heaviest I have ever been, even counting pregnancy. At one point I was even prepping for a figure competition. But now, I'm approaching the point of health implications and would like to prevent these if possible. I look forward to the group and getting to know you all!

I am almost at 53 hours and I feel great!
I'm so torn, and would LOVE your input!

If I feel as good tomorrow, I don't know if I want to end my fast at 72h. Part of me wants to try a 5day fast if I feel good tomorrow. HOWEVER, I have some foods (leftovers) that will go bad if I don't finish it by Thursday, some maybe even tomorrow. So...

Do I want to risk throwing food away, or should I break my fast even if I feel I could go longer? What would you guys do?

Good Morning...I tend to side on the side of caution...I don't think I'd push it past that, but if you're feeling strong and pushing liquids, with no signs of your blood sugars being out of whack, I guess you could do it. What would your doctor say? If it were me, I'd say no, but I don't follow fasting much...I only do the 16:8 on the weekends.

Congrats for making it this far...and I'm 53 too!
Jess

I have rediscovered my love of pizza, which is a horrible thing and I have very little self control, so I'll take this gain. Have a good day all! Jessica

Look into fathead dough pizza. It tastes just like regular pizza, behaves the same if you baked the crust long enough, but only 13g of carbs in the whole crust!

One question...what are the calories? I'm not a carb counter, so I have to watch the calories. Someone recommended veggie burgers, but in most cases, they're the same or higher in calories than the lean ground beef or lean ground turkey/chicken I already use, so why bother?! Let me know gal and thanks for the suggestion!
Jess

I don't believe it's for you then. Half a pizza is almost 1300 cals. Usually I can only have 1/3 of a pizza per meal, but if you are pure calorie counter, then it's probably not the best. Cauliflower crust or chicken crust might be better fo you then depending on what toppings you plan on using.

Here is a good cauliflower crust pizza: https://ifoodreal.com/cauliflower-pizza-crust/

@Ahanaz
The frozen, thin crust pizza I usually buy is 1200 for half of it...and I can do that on weekends when I only eat two meals, but it's not easy, especially when the doctor just cut me from 1800 to 1600. I'm just not super motivated right now...I'm not eating completely thought free, but I'm certainly not buckled down either. I don't know what my deal is...SMH
