Happy Monday!
It was a great weekend! I walked around the lake and it felt so good being out. I tracked everything I ate and had a lot of water. I can’t believe I lost 4.4 lbs on my first week. I know is mostly water weight at first but everything counts. Don’t feel discouraged if the number today is not what you expected. Keep going and you will see results! Thank you for posting. I am very motivated. 😊

Hope everyone is having a great Monday!!! Me??? Not the best start... the scale says im up 3 POUNDS since Friday.... not cool. Pretty sure it's mostly water retention caused by drinking the last 3 nights. I ate pretty well over the weekend and got on the elliptical for 30mins both days... so meh. Feeling bummed, but still optimistic 👍
Goals for this week: 1) NO alcohol Monday-Thursday. 2) NO snacking on kids snacks or dinner.

Hi Britt, I’ve been there before. Don’t be discouraged as it is probably water retention. Alcohol can do that to you. Great that you have goals for the week. It is so hard to have kids snacks around. I complete my food diary right after dinner and I tell myself that I can’t have any more food until the following day. It is so difficult not to snack at night but we can do it! It is great that posted even though the number on the scale is not what you expected. 😊1 -

Lost 1.1lbs since starting on 5/1. This is likely mostly water weight but I’ll take it. I hurt my back somehow yesterday but forced myself to walk this morning. I never had back pain before and now I have a new respect for those who have chronic back pain.2 -
Hello. I would like to join. I really need this. My “wished” deadline is also by june...have to say ...I joined today after feeling really down because of my weight
Need to loose 18 pounds2 -
Hi all,
I’ve been trying to lose 15 lbs for ever. I decided yesterday that I will lose the weight by June 30th. I believe I can do it. I weight 160 and my goal is 145. I would like to find people that need motivation to lose weight and encourage each other . The key is to post everyday even if you are having a bad day. Who would like to join me?
Try using weekly Progress Pics for motivation. I take mine every Friday morning (Photo Fridays!) and it pushes me throughout the week!1 -

Hi azkunk, every pound counts! I've had back pain for several years. I would suggest not to push yourself too much as it could be worse for your back. Maybe rest for a couple of days to see if it gets better. I learned the hard way to listen to my body.2 -
Oh I would love to join this "challenge!" I started Monday.

Thanks girl! Yeah, I'm pretty good about not snacking after dinner because I usually go to bed shortly after. I know that's not the best for weight loss, but it is what it is. It's either eat in peace after I put the kids to bed or try to eat while they are up and be distracted/getting up multiple times lol I'm expecting a lower number on the scale tomorrow morning. WE GOT THIS!

Weight lost Challenge:
You're killin it!! Keep up the great work!!1 -
After all my careful and smart eating under my calorie goal, great exercise and no alcohol I woke up to the exact same weight as yesterday. :-( ... Maybe I needed more water. I know a big part of this journey is patience and allowing my body to do its thing until it is ready to move downward so I decided not to get upset and to love it more for carrying me around so well! Today I am chained to my laptop at the dining room table for work and homework tonight for two graduate classes, so not much exercise but I'll do what I can to move and see what tomorrow brings!5

Happy Sunday everyone! Anyone do any good workouts today?
I went for a bike ride with my husband this afternoon. We rode for about an hour and it was so nice to get outside! It has been really rainy here recently and I'm enjoying the sunshine.
I did a slow 2 mile jog.. my furthest distance since injuring myself 3 years ago. I was so happy, I felt like I could cry. I haven't worked out without pain in soooo lonngg!!!4 -

Thanks, @Paz922. I feel a little better this afternoon. The ibuprofen is really helping.1 -

I have started having all my meals on a pretty salad plate instead of a dinner plate, which helps me to cut down on the amount. I’m also trying to eat slower so that I actually have an inkling of if I’m full instead of just eating everything because it’s there.6 -
Salad plate move helped...and I told myself only what is on the plate. No second helpings!3

I'm in!! I have about 15 to lose by then too!!!1

Good morning everybody. First day went ok but I do realize why I gained weight...I have no ideas of the calories I am eating. Tracking is great and scary at the same time! Portion control is definately a task that I need to master. But overall it helps me a great deal just to log in and tell you what I feel and think...not much support at home I have to say!lets have another good day.4

Hey everyone, had a great day yesterday. I ate really well with very little snacking, I went for a run in the park and I weighed in today and was the same weight as yesterday so I guess it must be true that you shouldn't weigh yourself everyday but it is a good sign if you are the same weight for a couple of days because then that means you are heading down and not up! It's harder to get to the shops to buy fresh fruit and veg because of the queues here but my husband is great at going to the shops and doesn't seem to mind at all thank goodness, I can't stand queues lol....I mean I'm sure he can't either but I won't say no if he offers to go to the shops right?
Hope everyone is doing well and staying on track.3 -
Grace173...Reading your post...I decided to go for a run! Thanks!2

Yes please, count me in.
I am new here, I joined nine days ago .
I have shrunk a bit already, most likely water weight, still I am feeling inspired to keep this going.
Good luck all and feel free to add me for accountability and support.
