Replies

I just (re)started on MFP last week. My weigh-ins are weekly and my weigh in day is Monday. My goal is to lose 47 lbs.
I plan on posting before and after photos in Success Stories with every 5 lbs lost. I will also take new measurements with every 5 lbs lost.
If you wish to see my Before photos, they are here: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10854113/i-did-it-before-and-ill-do-it-again-before-photos#latest
I did this same thing back in late 2020 with much success - I lost 20 lbs in 4 months.

Started a new medication called mirtazapine 2 weeks ago. I’m feeling better than I have in years, the downside is it’s really affecting my weight loss, every pound is putting up a fight now. I’ll get there ^_^ I’ve made tremendous progress with cleaning the house and selling/donating things.

I have 5 days left to complete my Fitbit bingo board. 30k steps to go! Wish me luck.

🌟 Last week's successes: I logged my food every day and stayed under my daily goal. I've lost 5% of my body weight 🎉🎉🎉
💪 This week's challenges: Staying motivated as my weightloss slows down. I weigh every day and I seem to have stalled again 🤔 I'm in my mid monthly cycle, which makes me hungry and plays havoc with my water weight. I will stay strong 💪

1/22: 138.8 Went over my calories on Monday, but was under them every other day this week. I drank 64 oz minimum of water daily and even upped my exercise by 15 per day to compensate. This has to be water retention because I didn't eat that many extra calories to gain fat.

I participated in this challenge for several years, achieved my goal and maintained it for a couple of years. 2 years ago my daily routine changed and the past year has been almost constant travel. I've struggled with a new normal routine for myself. Now the challenge of living that new routine with the travel continuing.

Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in day out.
A pound a week seems reasonable. Why is it so hard?

This week's challenges: Going to CA with my daughter, for the weekend, to celebrate my birthday (Disneyland tomorrow). Traveling is usually an excuse to eat an insane amount of food and then be off plan for weeks/months. So I'm excited to be traveling but so nervous because I don't want it to derail me. I want to enjoy the trip but also stay on track.
