Not sure about tracking everyone’s weight on a graph. I’m using the phone app and I don’t think it has that functionality!

Wow, it must seem a formidable task to get in shape, I won’t lie to you but Christ will help you through this if you let Him! I encourage you to also consult with your doc and have your progress monitored by him! Nothing is impossible, keep the faith!Me. Christ knows how though. Im on about 25 tablets a day and getting nowhere.but im trying one last time!

I have 12lbs to lose but slowly getting there even though i lose a bit then gain a bit it! Add me if you want I'm 57 married and retired with a doggy hip and back that's why exercise is slow1
-
Yeah I lose and then I gain like a yo-yo as well so you’re not alone. I’m 41 but not for long and am going through rehab on my shoulders and feet so totally empathize with your plight. For now I’m doing a lot of Pilates rather than straight up cardio.I have 12lbs to lose but slowly getting there even though i lose a bit then gain a bit it!

I’m thinking 20 lbs. but who knows? 🤔 if I get there I may want 5 more. Why is 25 and under SO hard 😭2

I’m in! I have lost 93 pounds this year with LCHF, Keto, and IF. I have 20 more so I agree with your game plan. The last 15 they say are the hardest so I need motivation. I have a tendency to be more extreme especially with exercise. Are you saying exercise 5 times a day or a week? I totally can exercise 5 times a day but if so it would be swimming, sauna and yoga added to my more strenuous modes. I want this weight off and want to maintain it for life with the LCHF and IF lifestyle. I have only been gaining since 2003 so I will be so happy to make it goal weight!2

@squirley13 Oh wow 93 lbs! You go girl! I love swimming, I swam for 5 straight years with the masters swim team in our area but had to quit to rehab a shoulder neck issue. Now I just do that once in awhile and mostly Pilates. Yeah I meant 5 times a week! There’s no way I can do five times a day while working. I will be kicking it into full gear come January 2, after my last holiday getogether!1

Yes, I’m in. My biggest goal is to cut back on sugars! Trying to stop family illness with diet and exercise.3

I know they say sugar is more addictive than cocaine. And it opens the door to a whole bunch of illnesses.Mamita_Vibes wrote: »Yes, I’m in. My biggest goal is to cut back on sugars! Trying to stop family illness with diet and exercise.

I need to lose 30 good pounds. Getting back on track to calorie counting. Doing 1200 cals/day2

I'm starting on sugar "detox" at the start of the year. Goal is to lose 55 pounds in 2020. Feel free to friend me here. Happy to share food diaries, challenges and successes!2
-
I’ve heard this detox helps the body in many different ways. For your sugar detox how long will you do it for?2
-
25 pounds for me as well! Starting keto tomorrow. Nervous and excited. Let’s do this!1

Hi! I would really like to lose about 25 pounds (10 kilos)... But I really cannot seem to find the motivation. I have been trying for about three years but it's like this yoyo effect. I mean diets are impossible cuz I end up eating enormous amounts of food and I try to exercise but I mean I feel great afterwards and then if I don't go one day I don't go the next one I start to binge especially now while my house is full of cookies it's really hard and I feel like all the effort before was worthless. And I feel so tired and without motivation for everything... I know it's all in your head but still I am struggling and I feel I powerless... Plz help, any tips, whatever? :S
Oh and sorry for the essay :$1 -
I’m in! I’ve lost 39 so far. 20 pounds is a good mini goal. I have been following IF lifestyle. I try to workout between 5-6 days a week for at least 30 mins. I am beginning to add strength training to my routine.3

Just read everyone's contribution again, and wow! I feel so sorry and totally empathize with all, pain is just terrible to deal with, so hugs all round, I have followed a top cardiologist's philosophy

which has helped with health i.e. lower cholesterol, blood pressure, but, my downfall is carbs, and sweets....and lack of exercise. You'd think, I know all this stuff, but still continue with my silly ways. I have lost 12 kilos since sticking to a vegan diet, but still the old habits continue. I;m hoping that posting here and continuing to use the food diary daily will help. All the very best everyone, and rich blessings2
