    Comments: Hi all, I Started a weight loss sight here about 3yrs ago, but I fell off the wagon...over the bank...into a raven. At one time in my life, I went from 260pd, to 121pds, back to 253pd to 160pds to 270pds, back down to 174pds and within the last 3wks have gained 9pds. HELP ME !!!
    My weigh in day is Tuesday. I am losing my grip again. I need your support to get me back on track. I've taken a hit this fall, I fell and tore my meniscus which has knocked me off my treadmill and basically doing anything with my leg until further notice. I need suggestions as to what I can do to exercise the upper half of my body. Right now, I have ( 2 ) 1gal. bottles of water and I'm doing a front lift 10xs and side arm swings 10xs for a rep of 5xs. Other than that, I need some at home ideas for exercise.

My body needs a break sometimes, (I canโ€™t believe itโ€™s been 12 weeks!!!) anyways thatโ€™s what happened, I want to get down to 120-115 range so still a lot more to lose but Iโ€™m motivated. My goal is to have ab lines by the summer.

Next week Iโ€™ll go for 45 (my goal is one hour). Also at the gym I switched to a new workout split of push/pull/legs and itโ€™s going pretty good, Iโ€™m just scared Iโ€™m not hitting legs enough. I did an upper lower split for over a year and that was good but I felt like my upper body days were too much and my arms got too fatigued so I decided to break it down into push and pull. Anyways thatโ€™s my update, hopefully the weight will start dropping smoothly again and this is over soon ๐Ÿ™‚ I donโ€™t want to have more cheat days they feel like such a set back ๐Ÿ˜ซ

    I'm up for this, I just restarted my journey this week.

    Mike
    44
    Haven't weighed yet but I know im back up to circa 17.5 st and need to get back down to 16 as my first watermark.

    Made great choices this week, so far even though I travelled, my goal to the end of the week is keep on doing what I am but also to get to the gym so I can weigh and get a routine going.

    Have a great one everyone in โœŠ๏ธ

    And now for some affirmations:

    I am beautiful.

    I am strong.

    I am compassionate, charismatic and easy to talk to.

    I am capable of growth and change.

    I am brave.

    My body is a blessing, but it is the least interesting thing about me.

    The right people will show up and the wrong people will move on.

    Comment: I like the idea of this thread! I am really committed. Started my original journey years ago morbidly obese at 360. I worked really hard then got stuck with life stress. I am fired up in 2024. Kicked off my journey on Jan 8th. Workout x 5 times week, calories at 1500 and daily tracking. Letโ€™s do this!
