Don’t forget to weigh in tomorrow and look for the weekly non scale goal! Have a great weekend!
Thank you! I'm nervous to weigh myself, even though I've been staying under every day!!
I feel the same way! I haven’t ran in months, so I am afraid my muscles are hanging onto water to re build. No matter what though, I am in this for the long haul this time.1 -

Soooo....I went up this week! I’m gonna chalk it up to my muscles not knowing what to do because I ran this week for the first time in months!
*non scale challenge for the week: keep drinking your water and no snacking late (pick a time and don’t eat after that time) my kiddos go to bed at 8, so I am not going to eat after they go to bed. Post your time!4 -

Wow I lost two pounds! I certainly agree about the late night snacking. I'll say I won't eat anything after 7.2 -

Hi everyone. I hope you had a good week. I finished my first official full week back on MFP and so far so good. I am starting to also do intermittent fasting with 16 hours of fasting and an 8-hour window for my meals. I haven't felt too hungry, luckily. My husband swears by intermittent fasting, so fingers crossed. My goal for the week is to do yoga every day. I found a 30-day yoga challenge on youtube I enjoy. Good luck everyone!

I would love to join this group. I will be 49 in less than 2 weeks and would like to lose 50 by 50 and cannot do it alone. I just restarted logging on 5/1.

My personal challenge this week will be to log everything and stay within calorie limit.3 -
Today was a good week, 6lbs down! Still fairly new so maybe just water weight lol. Feels good as I had a horrendous week previously where I gained 45

I have to make a revision. To what I wrote before since I made a small error. Let me explain the below this one time. I restarted MFP in Oct 2019 at my heaviest but didn't stick to it. I finally found the forums and started this group on 4/26/20 at a weight of 148.2 lbs. So between Oct to Apr I didn't gain more weight but wasn't doing what I needed to do. So overall I have lost 5 lbs but only my 2.6 loss this week has been intentional. Just didn't want anyone to think I lost 5 lbs in one week.
SW 150.6 lbs 10/9/19
CW 145.6 lbs 5/3/20
Mini goal 140 lbs
Ultimate goal 120 lbs
This was a good week for me! Not the best but I did manage to stay under calories which shows in my weigh in. So proud to lose 2.6 lbs this week! I'm very proud of myself and want to say thanks to the group. Checking in def played a role. Thanks everyone! Keep going for your goals!3 -
Also I will aim to do better with water this week as well as no eating after 8pm (starting tomorrow lol). Hope everyone had a good weekend.1

2.6 is definitely something to be proud of. I am happy that I found this group to get me honest and motivated. We got this!

I am going to put 5 hair ties on my 16oz water bottle each time I finish a bottle, I will move the band up so I have a visual goal and don’t lose track. That and one can of LaCroix a day 🤤5
