Hi Shrinking Assets! I'm very excited to join your group. My name is Christina . I'm 44 and live in Christchurch, New Zealand.
SW: 220 (Monday 26th Oct)
Weigh in - Fridays
I’ve lost and gained 22lbs in 2020 just from lack of motivation and will power. My weakness is carbs, I have no desire for sugary treats thankfully!! I have all the tools to make this journey consistent and a successful one, I just lack discipline!! I have a wonderful husband who has loved me throughout all my different sizes from a 0, 2, all the way to a 14!! So he’s no help to this journey lol so now I’m here for some accountability. Thank you for this challenge and this group!!7 -
Hi guys!!!
Sorry that I have been MIA for a few days. Just some personal stuff going on and needed a little attention.
I have been doing well. I had my typical weekend gain - probably sodium from sushi Saturday. I have dropped the weekend sins and working on a loss for the week.
I have a ton to catch up on in this thread and I promise I will get there!
Let's finish October strong and SLAY NOVEMBER!!!
Were our steps logged for last week? I never saw my post acknowledged so I was just wondering?0 -

Weigh-in Fridays
So I will be 44 years old next month. In October I tipped the scales at the highest I have ever been (even with being pregnant with my Viking children). And I feel lousy...just not great, body aches and pains. I don’t have the best support system for this type of thing -I don’t know enough people (new to area) and those I do know -aka family -don’t get it. Plus, I hold the typical stereotype of a working mom/wife...I’m always catering to others needs/demands and I’m just really worn out -so it’s hard to dig deep for me. The big thing that is motivating me to make this change is that I feel I have a lot of pre’s knocking at my door and by that I mean pre-hypertension, pre-diabetes etc. I am getting some bloodwork and ultrasound done for my thyroid. I joined this app 2 years ago and set my username as SisuMom2019 (Sisu is a Finn word -appropriate to my challenge 💪🏼).I am excited to be a part of this community and I am really driven-by a desire to lead by example and also a bit by fear of my own health. I’m committed and I even gave up alcohol 3 weeks ago -no more wine on Saturdays. I look forward to reading over the other posts.5 -
Hi! Hope everyone’s week is going well...I think I weigh in here. I’m down to 280 from 281. Hopefully I did this right lol.1

Weigh In Wednesday, sorry I'm late. I've had a headache due to the weather - it legit makes me feel ill sometimes- and totally forgot to weigh in, so please carry my weight over from last week.

I would like to wish everyone a safe and Happy Halloween! It's a different year for it. They still allow trick or treating here which concerns me. I don't think many houses will be participating. STAY SAFE!

I never participate just because I live in a very rural area and don’t get any trick or treaters. I would definitely participate though if kids came out my way. Personally, I’m glad they are still doing it in my area. Things are bad enough for kids without taking away their Halloween also.0 -

@Beka3695 WOOHOOOO! Congratulations!
@SisuMom2019 welcome aboard! Do you have Finnish heritage or did you just stumble upon sisu and like it? Definitely appropriate word choice for what we’re doing here. I’m Finnish and live in the Helsinki area.0 -
@Beka3695 You, my friend, are a total rock star!!! Congrats!!!0

Hi all!
I’m from Canberra Australia so I use kg, do I need to convert in pounds for this group?
My kids are 8, 6, and 4 years old and I lost the baby weight very quickly after each. After I lost the weight from my youngest I got all excited that I would never be big (pregnant) again. Except oops, I put on 23kg over a few years without being pregnant 😱😱
Height: 173cm
Starting weight: 93kg
Current weight: 79.2
Goal weight: 70
Weigh in day: monday
I’ve been incorporating wine and chocolate into my weekends to try and make this something I can stick with and maintain once I’m at goal weight.
Thanks for having me 😊0 -

Yes please convert to lbs. The mods are from the US and I believe (they could answer better for me when they are around) that the spread sheet they use for tracking is in lbs.
