    Hi,
    I’ve been having a huge problem with my weight for the last few months. I’m determined to turn over a new leaf. I joined a gym and hired a trainer, met with her today and I feel good. December 1st, a new beginning.

    December Goals
    Gym 4x week
    Loose 10lbs
    Max 1400 calories

    Best to everyone!

    Hello everyone! I am new here. My name is Mary and I am 62 years old. I am what people call a Snowbird! Minnesota in the summertime and Arizona during the winter. I have lost up to 70 pounds but have regained 10 pounds during a recomposition maintenance phase. I always have trouble during that time. I do much better with structure! That is why I need to join this group!! My preferred exercise is Russian kettle bell swings. I started out weightlifting but it is much easier to transport my kettle bell from state to state. In Arizona I like to hike the mountains and ride my eBike. When I am in the losing mode my preferred diet is keto. Otherwise calories in calories out. I would love to get a recipe for a bread alternative for the keto diet. I think I remember that Ashley is on that type of food program.

    Can’t wait to get to know everybody!

    I do have a question about posting our weight. I weighed in on Saturday and posted that as my starting weight. Do I need to re-post on here?

    Oops. The PW was last Sunday, the CW is today- and my weigh in day is Sunday. So maybe I should have said today’s weight was my sw for the challenge ? As in week 0 and NEXT Sunday is end of wk 1? Total newbie here so ya, think I did mine wrong. Any advice happily accepted.

    Hi Everyone,

    I am Mauli pronounced as Mollly. I am 44 and did lose my goal weight as I was doing personal training. Then later I gained 5 lbs and trying to get that off. I am currently on intermittent fasting from 10.30 to 5.30. It used to be 10 to 6 but PT changed it to 7 hours window. I like to do this on my own since my PT has held my hand for a year on helping me lose weight and inches. And now it's time I like to do it on my own and be disciplined to reach my goal or more.

    Hi guys! I decided to join this group because I need some motivation. At my highest I have ever been and ready to lose the weight. I know it will take a few months but accountability and competition are great motivators!
    I gained weight in 2015 then got pregnant 2016. Beginning of this year I had a work injury and gained weight from meds and stress.

    I am turning 40 next year and ready to not hid behind my kids for pictures lol! My Goal this week is I want to work out 3 times a week and 10000 steps a day. I would like to limit my sweets to one cheat day a week.

    Good luck to all of you and I would love to support all of you!

    Napping is good. I like napping. There's no eating while napping.😁

    Hi everyone I'm 38 (today) from the UK and need to lose around 2 and half stone. If struggled for years to lose weight but need to just get it done this time by sticking to it no matter how many bumps in the road I have and no matter how long it takes i feel determined to get to goal this time!

    I joined this challenge last month and found it helped keep me accountable although I wasn't as active the group as I should have been.
    Goals for this month are be more active in group, drink more and although it's Christmas this month I'd like to lose at least 8lb.

    Good luck to everyone

    Only my daughter remains at home as the weather was bad last night and she can take a 'work from home' day today. My children are scattered from Boston to New Jersey to Kentucky. One is a neighborhood away. I love the start of a new day and reflecting in the morning. I need to concentrate on healthy eating and exercise.

    I love the start of a new day and reflecting in the morning. I need to concentrate on healthy eating and exercise.

    @Kin59vara I do that everyday, I journal about what I did right the day before and what I need to do better with but every morning I take my weight and then take a few minutes to look at what happened and where I can do better and in fairness, there are days that go really well, and while I did over eat while on vacation, I did stick to my fasting and over the 10 days where I was traveling I only gained 1.5 lbs, and some of that can even be attributed to PMS which I am really happy with, well the overall gain I'm happy with, but not the pms lol.
