Happy Mother's Day to the moms of all kinds. My numbers for my first week are headed in the right direction. I had a 2.4 loss which dropped to a 1.8. by this morning. A little bummed but still a loss. Bodies are so weird. I had some pretzel sticks last night and I am sure that played a role. As I said in another group I am in, I think what is helping for me overall is cutting back on bread and pasta, my two great loves in life in the food world. I also tried a protein shake a couple of days at lunch time that I really liked and kept me very full in-between meals. Who knows what it was. I will try again this week and need to up my activity level. I'm determined to do this.
SW- 244.6 lbs (5/4)
CW- 242.8 lbs (5/11)
GW by June 30th- 229 or less
Total weight lost- 1.8 lbs
A loss is a loss! Good work!

Happy late mommy day to everyone! 🥰
Keep drinking your water! I didn’t do very well on my late night snacking, so I am going to keep doing nothing after 8.

Starting out my Monday with a bang!! Our family had to be swabbed for Covid today due to my adult daughters test coming back positive (she doesn’t live here) but we’ve had contact- minimal until yesterday...
We are (5) asymptomatic.. praying for negative results. The win is I think the anxiety is doing the opposite of wanting to eat so that’s a plus lol😂.

I hope all test come back negative and your daughter remains asymptomatic.2 -
Yesterday wasn’t the best. The kids and hubby made me pancakes and bacon for breakfast and ordered Mexican for dinner. I kept my portions reasonable but did not dare step on the scale this morning.0

That sounds scary and stressful. Praying for you all. Positive thoughts. Hoping everyone is OK.0 -
Yes please. Would love to join. I need to lose 50lbs and need some supportive people to keep me on track.
208 starting weight (5/11/20)
153 goal weight
Going to try to exercise everyday and cutting bread products seems to work too. Just hard with the family home and munching all the time.2 -
Is there any way to see this threads posts in my newsfeed? I'm new to these forums.0

Looking to loose weight the traditional way.
Age 40, will be 41 in early June. I was able to loose 20lb from July-November on Noom. Gained it all back and now have the time and energy to do it right! Hard to do exercise with impact as I have planter fasciitis in both feet and being treated for it. Need to loose over 50lbs.
Starting weight 204.4 (5/11/20)
Mini goal weight 185 by the end of the summer
Ultimate goal weight 150
Height 5’8.5”
Now that the weather is nice I’m hoping to get back on my bike. Can’t swim with the pools/gyms being closed. I do barre classes 3-5 day a week for flexibility, stretching, and strength. Thinking of subscribing to a meal prep mail service. Any experiences or good ones for weight loss?

Welcome! I am right there with you. Having everyone home makes staying on track so much harder.0 -

Welcome to the group. I had great success on nutrisystem until I got bored. I have never used any meal prep. Which ones are you looking at?

That’s the best attitude! Just pick up and start over. Great that you worked out. Hope today was good. I had a few days where I just couldn’t get out there and burn calories. But today was great out and I took a great walk. One day at a time!3 -

I was thinking that by nature how much I can get stuck in my feelings! Don’t get me wrong feelings are 100 % important! But this picture reminded me that I really want to keep going... break out of my comfort zone when I’m afraid or just don’t wanna to be the best that God made me to be. #imperfectlyperfect2
