@micwrites - Good for you! Kicking that man to the curb may be the most important step on your road to emotional and physical health. I am cheering for you from across the internet! Hooray for Michelle!
@speyerj Thank you! 😘 I so appreciate it. 👊

Goal 1: 299
UGW: 145
I just started MFP this past week but have been working on losing weight for a few months. My weigh in day is Monday.
My goals for July:
Transfer from counting calories to counting carbs.
Exercise at least 3x per week by walking at least 20 minutes at a time.
My biggest problem is eating when I am tired instead of going to sleep. I use to belong to Taking Off Pounds Sensibly (TOPS), an in-person support group, which helped me get down to 220 lbs but I don't have a way to get to meetings any more. So I'm hoping to find encouragement and support here.
Have a great evening everyone!9 -
Hello! I'm joining in! I just did a couple of free months on WW and couldn't afford the fee anymore because I'm no longer working. I've used MFP before with great success (but that was almost 10 years ago!)

GW1: 200
GW2: 150-160
My summer has been pretty rough, having been on sick leave and struggling financially...but I have some time to work on me I guess, and losing weight needs to be part of that for my physical and mental health. I tend to give up easily, and need to work on getting into some healthy habits and sticking with them! Currently just trying to make it through, but here are my goals so far:
1) TRACK and stay under calorie goal - maybe track in advance if I can
2) Try to get in some exercise 2-3 times a week for now, increase in a month or so (it's hard to do when it's so HOT)
3) JOURNAL. I bought a new journal and pens yesterday and found a ton of good journalling prompts online
What I'm grateful for: remembering that it is much cooler on the North side of town, down by the Marina... and that I have a vehicle to get there and friends who also do. My friend took me down there for a picnic tonight and it was so refreshing! Might have to use it as a journalling spot and a place to walk to get started with back to exercise!

Loss at 1 lb/week: 159
Countdown to Wedding Season: 41 weeks
I talk about shooting for 1 lb/week, but I know I'm not perfectly doing 1440 calories every day, and I'm lifting, so I'm happy with what I've got now. Progress pictures and measurements in a week will be a better indicator of progress.
Quick tags:
@speyerj and @orangequilt : same. I have never been able to accurately gauge hunger, so I expect to log in some fashion for the rest of my life.
@sweetirish those pregnancy hormones are real! Walking does help, and I found taking up a hobby (for me it was knitting) also helped to keep my mind from spiraling down some paths I'd rather it not. I've been pregnant twice, so if you've got gripes, my inbox is open.
@terytha I love that you write trashy romance (I do, too, and it's terrible!). It's very gratifying, in a way I can't explain. I'm sorry that you as a teen were doing weight watchers and stuff. I wish education were better about nutrition when we're much younger, instead of pushing kids (intentionally or not) into weight loss programs. Honestly there's too much kids need to know these days, and not enough time (or budget!) to teach them. I'm at the weight I was in high school, as well. And sometimes I lament the fact that I got up to where I did, but, yesterday is heavy, so I'm going to put it down.
@wanderinglight I feel these feels. Even right after food, I'm thinking about food again. One thing that helps for those days I feel like a human black hole is to eat high volume low calorie foods. There's a thread all about it here: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10563959/volume-eaters-thread#latest
@shorepine oh hey, you're me! Down to the teleworking and taking care of two kids, and the strength training. We can do it. I've got a squat rack and barbell in my garage, so I'm very lucky to be able to do a standard weights regimen. Right now I can squat 100, deadlift 130, overhead press 55 (LOL, OHP is the worst), and bench 55.
@micwrites When my sister was in college, she broke up with a crappy boyfriend. When she called me, upset, I went straight to the store, bought her a cookie cake, and asked the baker to write on it GOOD RIDDANCE. This is my virtual cookie cake to you, my dear. GOOD RIDDANCE and GOOD FOR YOU!
@renewing1 Welcome! I've heard of TOPS, hopefully you find what you're looking for here, as well.
@Ambymaries your marina sounds lovely. You've got this.
Have a great Friday, everyone!9 -
@speyerj & @Wanderlinglight My brother had bariatric surgery about 6 years ago and has kept off the weight, but he changed his life and now is an avid diver and hiker. He absolutely loves food, and cooks up a storm all the time...but can't eat it all.
He got free surgery through the NZ health system, it was an incentive through his work. And was the best thing for him! It's too expensive here!
I know my eating is an emotional thing so I need to work through that, which is what I'm doing, and honestly, I'm feeling better than I have in 15 years! I wore a pair of corduroy flairs this morning that I haven't worn in 16 years, my son says I look like a hippy! I laughed, they make me feel happy! Better than food! And a young girl in a shop asked me where I bought them ( a hundred years ago at Camden Market in London!) I'm also loving the exercise and feeling my body get healthier and stronger! We can do this, we all have the ability to do this 20-mile walk, it's about consistently doing your daily habits even when you don't want to!7 -
@CupcakeCrusoe I appreciate that. This is officially my third pregnancy, I've just never made it out of the first trimester. I should pick my crochet back up but I get that "but this yarn is so pretty I have to save it for a really good project" syndrome and never actually get much done. I have other crafts too. I've read that crochet/knit is good for anxiety too.9

I have that syndrome all the time, in regard to yarn. I've decided that life is too short not to use the good yarn on things. And I do love to buy more, so there's always that.
My latest acquisition is a yarn advent calendar- 1 mini skein a day for the month of December. I'll make a big old space rainbow (that's the theme this year) gradient shawl out of it day by day. I'm already excited about it.6 -

Also, easier to avoid snacking because you don't want to get your nice yarn all greasy! Knitting is great for anxiety, I did cable cardigan in lockdown.7 -
Welcome to the newbies, loving the discussion and sharing on here, you are all an inspiration to me xx6

LOL I read trashy romance novels - 13 in a 6 week timeframe while I was on loan to the state's 211 office answering panicked phone calls. Then I switched to books about famous horses...another 2 books there, and then a biography on Marilyn Monroe. After that it was nice enough to play in my garden so I haven't picked my kindle back up in weeks.5 -
I am an emotional eater too, eat when I'm happy or eat when I am sad, excited, nervous you name it. I think that is why intermittent fasting is working so well for me. Is simple, I am either allowed to eat or not allowed to eat. If its past my eating window I will have to wait and eat it when I am allowed again. Usually by the time I get to my eating window I feel happier to eat healthy again. Not for everyone but I feel like it is working for me and hopefully I'll learn when I am really hungry along the way too. Admire anyone who manages to tackle the emotions around eating head on!!
Hope everyone has a good weekend! Weigh in day for me on monday, 🤞 but I know I'll have gone up as is TOM10 -
Hey, all. Sorry to have been MIA. Had a great Independence Day weekend with family just to end up being admitted to the hospital Wednesday for emergency surgery. Thankfully, the surgery went well and I’m on the mend. Hope to go home on tomorrow. I’m grateful for this healthy journey I’ve been on to give me the strength and stamina to make it through this. I was supposed to start back to work Monday but my family wants me to wait a week.
Have a great weekend❣️18 -
@micwrites I am so glad you found a way out of that relationship! And I love that you want to focus on supporting other women right now. Those comments you listed made me feel so angry, no woman should have to endure that. Good for you and yes we will NOT eat entire bags of chocolate chips.
@CupcakeCrusoe oh yes. Solidarity. Teleworking and young kids. If I remember correctly I think yours are younger than mine. I seem to have reached somewhat of a weird happy place with mine, where they entertain themselves most of the day pretty peacefully. Mine are 5 and 7. I keep waiting for the shoe to drop and for them to entire some kind of new phase where they go back to trying to kill each other.
@changeforeverlj that is so great about your corduroy flares, and that you can strut around 20 years later in them! How wonderful to be feeling so good!6 -
I've been reading lately and that helps me because time flies by so fast while reading. But it's getting that time of year when I shift my focus on making Christmas gifts. This year I will be crocheting "dolls", adults like this kind of thing as well as children. The "dolls" I make are really figurines, like a unicorn, reindeer, a chef, etc. This helps keep me from grazing and gets me into a positive mind set because I am focused on the craft and others while working on these patterns.
Well, I was doing well yesterday with my food intake until I got tired and I gave in to that 1 piece of the pizza I was making for my husband, it smelled and looked so good. Today I am going to try to go to sleep before he gets home, that late night snacking/eating is just too hard a fight to take on.
So I'm slightly frustrated about last night but today starts a new day with new choices.
Best wishes to everyone!13 -
Happy Friday Everyone,
I read your posts and replied to most everyone yesterday but it disappeared into cyberspace somehow. I will not redo but will read posts I hadn’t read and reply to them.
@micwrites You do not look 60. I am 67. When an email came out from my employer asking any employees over 60 to arrange to work at home if possible I did that the next day especially since my son had been harping on it. I got permission and then 2 coworkers were talking in the cubicle next to me. One popped up and asked if she could ask me a question. I said okay. She asked how old I was. I said let’s just say I am over 65. What they had been talking about is how I got the okay to work from home. They had no idea I was over 60 much less 67. I didn’t even get to work from home a whole day since my office closed that afternoon. I think I feel like I am 47. I think getting rid of that man added another 10 years to your life.
@renewing1 I used to have a goal to post on here every day or 2 since I found it helped me so much. Now I don’t need to put it down as a goal since I come here daily and post as a part of my daily routine unless something special happens that day.
@Ambymaries people definitely can lose on WW but they seem to gain back what they lose. What many of us here are doing is trying to find a sustainable way of losing and changing our relationship to food so we can maintain our loss once we hit our goal weight. It sounds like you have a good plan. I need to get out more to do my walks along a marina on the Sound.
@cupcakecrusoe I am not surprised that you made progress this week. Look at all those green checks.
@changeforeverlj such a NSV fitting in pants from 16 years ago.
@pamiede so sorry about your family weekend being interrupted in such a way. Glad you are recovering well. Good idea to wait to start back to work. Take care.
Well since my last post disappeared I will update on the last 2 days. I have been getting in my exercise everyday this week. I had one higher calorie day this week although the net calories weren't bad and I think it is delaying a loss although I am down a lb since yesterday. We have this thing from when we commuted called Friday breakfasts. We need to stop but after being good all week on limiting treats I needed something this morning. So I need to be careful about my calories the rest of the day. We are having a family Zoom meeting. I haven't seen my family since early March and we usually had gatherings every 2-3 months. We have reservations for our family camping trip for early August but the Yurts we reserved are not available right now due to the pandemic although the campsite is. However we all can't fit into one campsite and keep socially distanced. We do have some friends coming over to our backyard tomorrow evening for a BYOE (Bring your own everything) social distancing meal.
I also completed my meal planning and my husband and I went shopping.
I do not knit but do crochet but haven't been doing it lately. I decided to crochet a strap for my face mask though so when I want to take it off it can hang from my neck. seems better than stuffing in a pocket or purse or laying it down somewhere. I do read a lot. I always put 52 books as my book challenge and usually exceed it. I am now at 50 books read for the year. I read mostly mysteries and especially historical mysteries. However I do my reading after dinner.11 -

I have found that intermittent fasting works well for me too. It's much easier for me to set specific times that are for eating, and to stick to those, than to gauge the hungry / full feeling. Plus I'm simply not that hungry in the mornings. I'm going to add this in for the next few weeks in July and see how it goes! Thanks for the encouragement.4 -

@wanderinglight love the mug!
@micwrites great decision on the guy!
@darksunapril and @wanderinglight thanks for the reminders, I did great with intermittent fasting earlier this year, you have inspired me to get back to it. I was doing 16:8. I accidentally started today by getting up late and spending too long in the bath, followed by being too lazy to go to the shop because I had run out of spinach to go with my eggs for breakfast, hey presto, it was lunchtime! I also don't feel hungry in the mornings and although I'm not naturally an evening snacker, my partner is so if I'm doing 16:8 it helps me to resist if my window is closed.
@pamiede I hope you're feeling better and make a good recovery. Sending hugs xx4 -
Thank you everyone for all your support for me. I laughed at your comments and suggestions during what has been a tough time in ejecting a very narcissistic man from my life. Thankfully before any really permanent damage.
I decided to try WW and potentially Intermittent Fasting yesterday after talking to a friend at work who has had great success. I gained about 20 lbs after my surgery and during COVID isolation this spring but my body looks so much larger. Maybe out of shape from little to no real exercise since my tennis injury. This was where my boyfriend kept telling me I was lying and it had to be more than 20 because of “the bulk.” SMH
I think I’m going to do a mix of everything. MFP and WW plus some mindfulness to get my head back on straight. Being out in the sun gardening, swimming makes a real difference for me. And now that our beaches are back open I may try some walks in the late afternoon on my days off.
I really upped my water intake yesterday and while I was running to the potty constantly I found that I was not as hungry at night and was easily able to shut my eating off at 8 pm. No snacking after that.
It’s a gorgeous Saturday morning here on the South Coast of Mass where they were predicting storms. Wishing everyone a beautiful day off.

@wanderinglight I love my cup! Thank you! I am still laughing. If I hadn’t cut off all contact I’d be tempted to text a picture to the offending as#%^*+ but I will refrain. I’ll post it on my vision board along with the rest of my future plans .... 💙
I'm so glad you like it! It's actually part of my "pandemic series" of mug designs but it works equally well for stupid ex-boyfriends
Wait do you sell this, because I need dis.2 -
Good morning everyone!
Today's my fifth wedding anniversary, so I need to figure out how to do calories enough for an alcohol and takeout for later.
I'm going to be cleaning my house from top to bottom today because we're having pest problems and the exterminators are coming out Thursday. Can't treat the house without treating all the pest attractors too. I need the smol denizens of my house to stop leaving crumbs everywhere...
Have a good day, everyone!8 -

That is a steady downward trend and very inspiring even if you didn't see a loss this week! It's so hot here (Texas) too. I am in "chugging along, waiting for things to get better" mode too. Hang in there 6
