I don't find that to be a victory. It seems like a design flaw. They really should last longer and not be so damn expensive.8 -
From barely able to walk last year or stand for very long because of obesity and poor circulation in my legs, to biking every day and squats / deadlifts 2-3 times a week. I'm 55 and this is today's photo of quads. last time I was able to see any muscle / vascularity in my legs was 20 years ago.

Recent NSV: I took measurements and saw the inches go down

Tried on last summer’s clothes and they still fit. Reminder to all to throw on your jeans and shorts every once in a while!18

Wearing a super old hoodie today because my usual sweater is in the wash.
Three people commented on how slim I look.
Apparently the reason nobody said anything before really is due to how baggy the sweater I usually wear is. I am pretty lost in it these days, it's just so comfy and the pockets have zippers.18 -
I'm no longer craving sugar!19

Was able to save my daily peanut butter for a time after lunch. It helped that there were peanuts in my salad haha12

I fit back into my UK size 18 trousers and managed to hang on the pull up bar for 5 seconds. Doesnt sound like much but I couldn't hang at all a month ago.18

I was able to hang off the pull up bar for a few seconds recently too and was extremely excited lol. It's fun! I want to someday be able to swing around like I see people do sometimes.
Congrats on your successes!14 -
I just finished Whole 30 and 1 round of 21 Day Fix and I'm down 11 inches this month! I don't know if that's a lot or a normal change for a months work, but I'm happy! I've decided to extend my Whole 30 for another 15 days at least and then I will actually weigh in but overall I:
- Am sleeping great and waking up before my alarm feeling rested
- have consistent energy throughout the day
- have broke my food cravings. Seriously amazing- my husband opened a bag of chips next to me (normally my kyrptonite) and I had no desire for them!
- had way less pms / TOM issues
- essentially has cut out all bloating18 -

I have been interested to try this. Did you change calorie intake at all?0 -

Hey @alexmose so one of the "rules" to the program is not to track your intake otherwise, and not to weigh or measure yourself for the whole month. I think the concept is to try to get people to understand and respond appropriately to hunger signs, stopping when full, and focusing on health and her they feel etc instead of numbers. So I can't tell you exactly what I was at for the month because I didnt weigh my food. Out of curiosity, I did track some days of intake to see where my macros were at and generally I was averaging my suggested intake of 1400. (Some days were 1800, some were 1200 etc depending on the day). I know it's possible to overeat even within this stricter WOE, but for me I have always lost far more successfully following this than other WOE. (Side note : Whole 30 is not marketed as a weight loss program - it's just that many end up losing while eating this way) Just a personality preference I guess - Im better following a strict program to "get into the swing of things" and kick start good habits. One big benefit is that it breaks my cravings for foods that historically I can't just eat in moderation (chips). So once the unreasonable cravings are home, I AM able to have some in a more reasonable and controlled way. Just my experience. The program isn't meant to be followed long term but I'm going to do it for maybe 45 or 60 days and then switch to a Paleo style diet which is essentially a more relaxed version. I'm enjoying the food and not finding it too hard.
Typically I will lose 9-12 lbs per month (probably 3-5 lbs is water weight) when I do a Whole 30. Based on how my clothes fit, I would say that's what I lost this round but will check officially at the end of the month.3 -
My husband asked me today "Are these new shorts?" Me "Nope." Him "Maybe you should think about donating them. They look overly baggy." First I loved that he checked my mood on the shorts before criticizing them. Second I love that they are baggy because I bought them last summer a touch snug (but as I was working on losing weight). I looked in the mirror and he's definitely right - they aren't flattering at all anymore.27

My friend did this and did really well. It is a bit strict for me but whatever works. I do low carb, 100gr or less and that is my thing. But I do have cravings at times.3 -
I've had four separate people lately mention how much thinner my face looks.18

OK don't laugh, but I finally cooked a chicken breast that was edible, trust me it's been a long process lol36

My 7-year-old cousin who lives next door asked me why I was ALWAYS outside walking or running.15

This is my 12th day in a row recording all of my food in MFP. I feel really good mentally and physically.
I’m committed to not eating after 7 pm. That is a miracle. Tracking everything is really helping me to keep the commitment!
Woohoo!!24 -
I finally only have 1 chin again. It bothered me the most out of my weight gain (looked like 2-3 depending on the angle). Ready to keep shredding

Today I squeezed back into my size 14 jeans. Last year at this time I was in an 18, and when I re-started myfitnesspal in early March I was a 16. I think I'm really back on the wagon.29
