August 3 steps-10,929
I prefer to workout at home. I have all the free weights, squat rack etc along with a treadmill. I found that I was more apt to workout at home vs gym. I always felt like I had to drag myself to the gym. At home I just have to drag myself off the couch.6 -

Since then, it has been a battle to lose it again and keep it off. I just recently had my gallbladder out and so I have had to completely change my diet around (otherwise I was in pain again and could not stop vomiting). Also found out that an arrhythmia I had previously has returned and I owe that to my weight gain. I am now following a low-fat diet and am actually down about 33 pounds since March. (Which was a HUGE surprise to myself! YAY!) I am slowly incorporating exercise into my plan since I am still technically "healing" from surgery so I have been doing walks and added some sprinting daily. Will increase as medically possible. I am here to reach my goal and get healthy for me, my kids, and my family. (That fight against genetics is strong!)
Anywho, I have decided to weigh in on Saturdays so I will make sure to do that in the morning! Have a wonderful evening and I look forward to getting to know everyone!
Welcome Tiffany! Congratulations on your 33 lbs lost since March! That’s an amazing number and you Must be feeling incredibly proud. I hope we can help you reach all your goals here. I’m looking forward to see you crush each and everyone of them.
Thank you so much! I am already feeling more motivated and focused thanks to this group so thank you for the invitation! Can't wait to kick some butt!4 -
August 3: 10,721 steps
20 minutes of yoga
Under calories for the day
The surgeon did NOT clear me to return to work so that was a real bummer, and I wasn't really motivated today. However, I pushed myself to go. Walked my 8,000 steps and came back home because the bottoms of my feet were on fire! Saw the number and knew that I was too close to give up. So I changed my shoes 3x and added an extra pair of socks and got them done! Felt very good afterwards to say I beat my goal despite everything. Scale climbed again (i'm starting to become obsessed with that number on the scale despite the progress I see in the mirror, but I will NOT let it deter me.) Anywho, I am only on a weight lifting restriction until the 18th and then hopefully I can incorporate some more strength training in and get back to the hospital (for work) as that will SURELY help me get my steps in. Tomorrow I have a cardiology appointment just to make sure that my arrhythmia is not anything to be concerned about. (Past history of arrhythmia that subsided when I lost a substantial amount of weight, so I am sure it is nothing but better safe than sorry!)
Hope everyone had a wonderful and successful day today!

Hello Everyone!
Well I do not have a favorite sports drink besides water. I have been trying to lose weight for a while and I’m awesome at maintaining but that darn scale never drops. I’m not following any diet plan right now, just counting calories as best as possible. I workout practically EVERYDAY, using the Beachbody program (specifically ShaunT). I have started to also use the Peloton app as I await the arrival of my bike, so if anyone has a Peloton Bike I would love the extra push! My triggers are not planning ahead with healthy choices consistently and always having delicious snacks around (I love to bake). I hope that in this group I have the support and encouragement to meet/achieve my goals. And, as to how to make this group better? I’m new and I do not have anything to suggest right now. I just need a little help figuring out how to post my weekly weigh-in for my group “Downsizers”. Thank you for the acceptance 💖2 -

Happy Monday!
This week, I'm gonna try eating more fruit and veg - I love the stuff, but recently I've been cooking nice things and 'skipping' the veg. I'm making a pasta dish tonight and will be including a big salad, and tomorrow's chicken wraps will include loads of bell peppers and maybe some courgette (and more salad on the side). I roasted some broccoli and carrots with my Sunday lamb last night - reduced the potatoes and skipped dessert too
Found out I'll likely be working from home till December, which means I don't get to walk to bus/work (a big part of my daily exercise). So I'm gonna try use that 30 mins each evening to do some cycling - I can't just be sitting on sofa all day!
You can also make courgettini and instead of pasta is courgette 😉0 -

Actually when I weighed my heaviest, there is nothing wrong with me, and the Doctors at the time we're surprised that everything was normal. Will except for me being morbidly obese, my sugar and everything else were fine.
Around the time I started losing, is when I was diagnosed with arthritis and sometime later type 2 diabetes.
It's only since I started losing all that weight, that I've been diagnosed with multiple things seems like the more weight I take off, the worse I get.
They keep finding things wrong with me, my heart problems, along with a few other serious health issues, were diagnosed in the past year or so.
Some of my health problems are due to me being obese. But according to many health specialists I've seen since becoming sick, they are not related to obese, however, it doesn't help being grossly overweight
Wow usually we hear the very opposite. I’m sorry it’s gotten worse for you despite your current weight loss. I hope that with continued success your health problems will get better and you will become healthier and stronger 🙏🏻🤞🏻

I have not had the best starting weekend/day today. I didn't prep, I did not sleep well, I did not exercise, and I lost my motivation for the day somewhere. The summer is making me sluggish and working from home is.... ugh. That's not going to do well for me... so start again!
So I am going to attempt what other team members are doing and do a daily check in with mini goals. Here are my goals to begin tomorrow.
Daily goals:
1. under calories?
2. 30 min of exercise?
3. 1 liter of water?
4. 30 min of relaxing time?
For days like this, I recommend you to write down the things that you did good. They can be small things like cleaning your teeth but it helps a lot to make a positive list

Monday check in
Hi all, just checking in with a weigh in day. Unfortunately this morning on the scale I weighed in at 252.6. The scales initially said 252.8/253 but then changed the batteries as it had been a while since doing so, so goes to show how batteries can effect the calibration. I'm not overly worried about the gain as a few days ago I checked in and was at 251.8 so. I was still active last week with getting a few walks in and a bike ride so that is at least something.
Keep in mind that when you start a new workout regimen and change your eating habits, it takes some time for the body to follow. Don’t worry about a small gain. Just je doing what you know works for you and I’m the weight will take care of itself. I’m sure you will have a nice drop next week. 🤞🏻❤️2 -

Morning! Yesterday was a really horrible day. I went to the gym and I received a video call from my parents that at the end they are not coming on Wednesday. My mum was ugly crying, my dad quite cranky from the situation .. And at that moment I was lucky that I was in the gym because I did my sport extra hard. After the gym I went for a walk. Looking for a quiet place to crush but no luck. I went home and then I started crying and panic attack, anxiety attacks, I cut my hair
I( have that when I'm doing real bad) and I didn't eat until really really late in the day. Which I ended up eating a vegan burguer in McDonald's
Today I don't feel better but at least I got quite some steps. 19.023 steps
My goal for today is eating the 5 meals. At least 3 of them and be out of bed2 -

Such great ways to include veg I to your meals! I love adding side salads whenever possible. And yum yum chicken wraps. One of my favorite meals and loaded with veggies is a plus! Great idea to add in an evening cycle as well.Monday weigh in:

Total loss to date 68 pounds.
I am on my phone so please forgive spelling/grammar. I am a 48 year old man that has been on a weight loss journey for about 7 years. I have a wonderful 14 year old daughter. Over the years I have always lost some, gained some back. I got as low as 238 a couple of years ago but life derailed me. I have always had a fairly easy time losing weight it’s the keeping it off that I have always struggled with, but I’m sick of riding this yo-yo I am jumping off this time for good. I enjoy lifting weights and walking.
You will notice I also make ALOT of typos on my posts and I blame it on my fat fingers. Well done on your loss this week! Very impressive progress so far! I totally understand the yo-yo life. I have done it my whole life. I’ve always been overweight / obese and have always been on some sort of diet cause if ups and downs for as long as I remember. But like you, one day I o it my foot down and decided this is it. I’m done and now I will lose it and keen it off. We can both do this. I’m looking forward to witness you succeed.

What is your favorite workout?
I don't have a favorite as im not a naturally active person. I walk mainly because I'm good at it.
What are your favorite sports drinks (if you drink any) ?
Coffee
Do you have a favorite diet that you go by or Do you just count calories?
I'm not good with diets or counting calories.
How have you stayed motivated to keep losing/gaining weight?
I struggle with motivation
Why are you on this journey? What pushed you to start your journey?
I was tired of being large and heavy.
What are your triggers and what motivates you the most?
I'm not sure what it means as far as triggers but I'm unmotivated.
What do you expect to gain from your team?
No expectations.
How can we make our team better?
Move next door and slap the bag of chips out of my hands.
I know this sounds negative but it is honest. I've a lot of people around me that are work oriented but I'm not. I don't go looking for something to do. If it needs to be done I'll do it even if it takes all day or all week but to go look for something to do is just not me. It's the same with working out.
As far as diets and/or meal plans, I've actually paid for a food plan and exercise plan. I followed it completely and gained so much I almost had to buy larger clothes. The guy still wanted me to stick to it. I did not because I could not afford new clothes.
I'm very much a helps type person. If a person needed me to exercise with them everyday I would be there knocking on their door. It's funny because that is what I need.
I could go on but it still seems negative. Smh
Well you know what if I could drag my butt next door to you I would and I would be knocking on your door to drag you out and slap those chips out your hand and get you moving.....but I’m not and the best I can do is virtually kick your butt into gear. You suggested a fitness challenge last month and we did our best to find something for you and everyone else. You know you want to do something physically or you would not have suggested it. You’ve got the tools you need at home. From what I remember you have a jump rope and a fitness ball. Stop making excuses and get to it. Sadly we can’t always have it how we want it and we can’t always wait until we feel motivated. Sometimes we just gotta suck it up and put some effort into it. Come on I’ve seen you do it. I know you can do it. The only person you are doing this for us yourself so get yourself together and get your head the game. The hardest part is the getting up part. Come on! 💪🏻
What a real eye opener. Thanks!. For a long time I thought it was about doing it for my family, friends or even to help others. Now I see it. It's all about me. 100% Darren. Thank you so much. I see it all very clearly.
You know, we often start this off for others. We believe it’s the right reason to better ourselves. I say “we” because I was the same. I always thought it’s for my kids, it’s for my husband, it’s for my family and all those who have had some sort of opinion or thought on how I lived my life. I was always failing because I felt I was letting them all down.
It wasn’t until I changed that mentality that I really made the decision to change for good. I decided I was going to better myself for me. Still having others in mind mind, I just changed it around. I want to run around and be active WITH my kids ( not for them) I want to feel sexy and attractive within myself and give off this vibe to my husband rather than doing it FOR him. I want to be healthy and strong so I can do things I’ve always wanted to do WITH friends and family Showing them I am capable because I willed it. In the end they get to also enjoy The changes you make for YOU. They don’t get pushed aside. It’s you who gets put first. I am also 💯% Mari Everyone else just gets to enjoy it as well.0 -

Goal Weight = 165 lbs
AUGUST GOALS ---
(1) Log everything; Drink 10+ water; minimize sodium where possible
(2) Exercise 30 min minimum (3000 steps) 5 days each week / LOG
(3) Clean 30 min per day: house or yard or declutter / LOG

(6) Once each week, get out of the house and do something FUN

08/02 - 3000
08/03 - 3000
TASKS FOR TODAY ---
Do 20 min stretches and 30 min of walking
Feed & Water animals -- done
Water outside plants -- done
Bedroom -- reorganize, declutter, strip bed & redo -- STILL need to do
Do Yoga
So, yesterday I made a concerted effort to keep sodium at a minimum. Chicken salad was good without it as were the cucumbers. However, the eggs need something more than pepper. Next time, I'll try using Mrs Dash No Salt to see if that helps. I tried fresh tomatoes without but ended up using salt on them.
I wish we had Mrs Dash here. It would really make it easier to keep sodium under control. Have you tried the “everything but the bagel” seasoning. Everyone talks about it. I’m not sure how it is with sodium so might need to check that. Everyone uses it on EVERYTHING. I hear it’s especially good on eggs. If you don’t have a Trader Joe’s near your to get some there are several homemade recipes available on Pinterest.Happy Monday team. Hope everyone is doing well. Missed my step goal on Saturday was on track yesterday and think i will make it today as well. Doing better with my calories although still over each day but I’m trying to get there.
Well done improving your calorie intake. That’s the hardest part of the journey in my opinion. Don’t worry about Saturday’s step goals as the official start date for steps in the August challenge was Sunday so all good!Steps for Sunday, August 2: 8,017
Gotcha!

All those who plan their meals ahead - how do you deal with the boredom/tedium of knowing what you're going to have every day.? Also how do you deal with simply not being in the mood for the food you've booked yourself in for that day ?
This is one thing that worry’s me about meal prepping. My favorite thing to do I the world is eat lol and I don’t like to get bored of my meals. If I did try something it would be to do what Linda does. I would just plan my meals ahead of time shop first them and have them planned out so at least I know what to look forward to. Meal prepping the same lunch for several days in a row wouldn’t work for me.melichalupa wrote: »Monday Weigh In

Daily check ins are a food way to keep accountable. This way you know we will all see what you accomplished in the day and what could improve. We are here to help you and encourage you to reach those goals. Also be kind to yourself. Give yourself time to adjust to your new lifestyle. It’s not something hat happens over night. Before you know it you will have a healthier routine and it will all become easier to follow. I think the goals are great. You may want to make your water goal higher. I would say try to slowly get yourself up to 2 liters. Add a little more each day. This really helps with weight loss.August 3 steps-10,929

I prefer at at the Gym. If I try anything at home I am constantly being interrupted by my family. They are all so needy and I don’t get to really focus on myself. I love being at the gym with my headphones on and it’s really all about me, for me. I know it seems selfish but we all deserve to have our own time to focus on ourselves and that’s MY time. I am very protective of it as well I don’t allow any plans to be made for me at those times unless there is really no choice.1 -

@mari_moulin, Thank you. I always seem to be different from others.
@Megan_smartiepants1970,
Question of the week:
Do you prefer to workout at home, or at the gym and why?
( I prefer to workout at home, mostly because I'm self-conscious and don't want nobody to watch me as I'm working out.)1 -
Megan_smartiepants1970 wrote: »
At home, much easier. Unless you're making a social thing as well ..
Do you prefer to workout at home or at a gym and why?
I prefer to workout at home because I have two young children and don't want to pay for the gym's daycare here, or have to load them up in the car every day. In the basement we have a bowflex, treadmill, rowing machine, and a recumbent bike. I also walk outside a lot right now, sometimes with the kids, sometimes without.
