@lifegoeson1999 Thanks so much! Just know that I am also your biggest cheerleader. I will always be cheering you on. Let's do this together!2 -
Well summer was brutal, and even into Sept. we had high 90s. But October has cleared it up thankfully and it's been beautiful in the 70s/60s. My inflammation has been lower too, I've barely taken any NAISDs these past few weeks, or even Tylenol.
Because of all this I started taking the dog on longer walks down the trails here and it's really been paying off.

I needed this challenge for the holidays. I was recently diagnosed with some liver problems and I don’t even drink so I know for sure it’s my diet. Doctor said I need to lose 60 pounds by January. I love in a house full of skinny people so it’s just me, my meal prepping, and learning a liver diet. My weight will keep me from a donor list if needed so it’s time to fight for my life. I got little ones to raise still ☺️10 -

@refactored Please don’t disappear on us. This is 3 month marathon run/walk rather than a sprint. We can and will do this together!!

Off weeks happen. Just keep at it. I find as long as I make sure to log what I eat it usually keeps me honest and mostly on the right track.7 -

@thatbeautifulchick We are here for you. You can do this!!! Please try pre-logging your food the night before, some form of moderate exercise everyday, even if it's broken up into 10 minutes at a time. Push the water. We will help in anyway we can! MFP is wonderful at keeping us accountable. Use that to your advantage. Prayers & {{{hugs}}}.7 -
@refactored Just a reminder that the weight loss is not linear. Seeing the ups and downs helps me to get back in line, keep things in check, get back on track. We gained it over time and we lose it over time. I know you already know all of this, but I just want to send a friendly reminder and a {{{hug}}}.

Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

10/09-184.8-(Trend Weight 187.6)- I know the Halloween Candy is going to start flowing in abundance everywhere I go. Gotta stay strong. I may stop by the dollar store today and pick up some sugar-free Werthers candies that I can suck on in a candy dish emergency. Even though I am a chocoholic, there is something very spooky and dangerous about candy corn. You eat one piece, EVEN ONE, and it leads to another and another and another. I won’t be buying or eating any candy corn this season!
10/10-183.2-(Trend Weight 187.1)- I ramped up my exercise this past week and began eating later in the day so that my dinner ends up pretty late and there is no need for those night time snacks (that I have a hard time controlling.) I’m still experimenting with the zig-zagging of both my calories and my carbs as well. It seems to be keeping the scale moving without stalls or plateaus so far. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”, so I will stay the course. I noticed that my scale weights almost always end in a .2 or a .8 very strange.

@deepwoodslady I understand the struggle of wanting/craving sweets...it's horrible. My husband bought double salted black licorice when he was sick...it's a Dutch thing. Lol. While it has medicinal components, it kills my sweet tooth.2
