I just reached my 50 pound weight loss goal. With you all in this in spirit! I am honestly a different person with so much more energy and 1000 times more confidence. I can only encourage you all to commit to those small changes and keep going every day. Don’t sweat it when you make mistakes or make a not so great food choice. It’s all part of the process.
Feel free to add me as a friend if you like. 💙8 -
@carbonmade0428 , @kathsk53 and @runa192009 - Welcome! This group is definitely helping me stay accountable
@signing_megs - Nice loss this week. Great plan to keep the momentum going.
Day 4 of 5 for me getting up early to walk and closing my exercise ring. I’m really hoping for a solid loss on Friday. I’m starting to feel less sluggish and good about the exercise. But every day closer to summer is getting hotter and I’m not sure what I am going to do when it’s over 100* at 6am. Need to make a plan. Maybe I’ll be ready to do some exercise videos by then.@carbonmade0428 , @kathsk53 and @runa192009 - Welcome! This group is definitely helping me stay accountable

Hello! I haven’t had time to read everyone’s posts but I’m checking in to hopefully start a regular pattern. This week was difficult with family needing a lot of help and I am posting to remind myself to start posting daily no matter what. I let myself get away with eating whatever I want because I
I work out a lot, and justifying that is hurting all attempts to reach my goal of losing weight, or even starting on that track. This has been a long term pattern that I need to break. I’d like to start posting calorie intake but that’s difficult for me because I often feel like a failure if I’m over my limit. I’m working myself up mentally to do that because I think ultimately that would be the best way for me to stay accountable. Anyway THANK YOU for the warm welcome and I will start to read posts in the next few days to start to get to know everyone!4 -
Weekly check in
Weight: 203.4
Mini goal: 185 by the end of the summer
Long term goal: 150
This week: I have been more active now that the weather is nicer which is helping me feel stronger and have more energy. I want to try and not eat all the calories earned by the extra activity. To be mindful and see if I really am “hungry” or if I am eating because I “earned it”.2 -
hello, fellow peoples! i have just come back to mfp after a five or six year hiatus. bummer to be away so long, but gold star for being back, right? i am hoping to lose about 50 pounds too. last time around, i got within about 15 pounds of my goal weight, but when i didn't lose anything else for over a year, i became frustrated and gave up. of course, since then, i've gained back everything i lost and then some. i'm back at it with a hope to lose the weight like a want to, but trying to focus more on the benefits to my heart, lungs, strength and mobility. so here we go.

I could use a new motivated group!!
My ultimate high weight was 242. I lost down to 172 then back to 236 3/1/20. I’m down to 209 but want to get back to 170s or ultimate goal of 155.

Just a check in- I hope everyone is doing well! My goal starting tomorrow is to start tracking calories which I haven’t been doing. Thank you for letting me join this group! I’m grateful to have a place where I can start to focus more on goals and have a sense of community.
Positives from today were lots of water, lots of vegetables, and a long workout. Negatives were eating way too many calories overall, especially carbs. Working on increasing protein and decreasing carbs. Thank you again and have a good night!4 -

I know what you mean. Going over always has such a sting. I've fallen off for a bit I'm back at it today. I did a restart and completed a 24hr fast to get my mind back in the right head space. I'm excited to keep trying. I hope everyone finds what they need in the group and are having a good start or streak going. If not try again! Take comfort knowing you're not the only one.0 -
