    Thanks everyone for the encouraging words, tips and advice! I'm not giving up yet, and definitely going to try out everything you guys said. 😁

    @minstrelofsarcasm That is a great idea with the sweets! If I am going to have them, I should make myself go on a walk while eating them. Pretty sure that would prevent me from sitting and eating 20 ores at one time then feeling miserable! I also want to find healthier sweets, I did come across one recipe that I want to give a try, something like an oatball with bananas and cranberries mixed in with some cinnamon I think, anyway they looked good. 😋

    @CassieGetsFit2013 Listening to podcasts and reading health books tends to get me motivated. I usually listen to diet & exercise podcasts on the way home from work so that when I walk in the door, I don’t immediately eat everything in sight.

    You might like Dr Gabrielle Lyon’s book “Forever Strong” https://a.co/d/gxtfD2F or Dr Peter Attia’s “Outlive” https://a.co/d/03sIMkX

    I do tend to have a bowl of something healthy on my counters for easy access. (Bowl of cherries, grapes, pistachios…)

    I’ve been slacking off as well, but I’m starting again tomorrow. I’m going to get back to planning out my meals and my workouts and sticking to it M-F at the very least.



    I've always wanted to plan out my meals and I feel like that would be a huge help, knowing what you're having in advance, so your hands won't wander and grab junk! I really need to do that! Also like the idea of having healthy snacks out on the counter!

    @TheMrWobbly - Hey! What day were you planning on weighing in this week? We don't have a starting date or a starting weight for you, and I'd love to get that put in place as soon as possible. Thanks!

    I assume that we submit our weigh ins here? If so here is mine:

    Weigh In Day: Tuesday
    PW (Previous Weight): 146.4
    CW (Current Weight): 145.4

    I'm pretty happy about this weigh in as I submitted the starting weight on Thursday I think.

    At this point, I might as well be in a weight gain group! SMDH! It's a new week, I'm going to start over again, today! I'm tired of being out of shape and my health getting worse because of it! Does anyone have any good recipes for healthier sweets? That is my weakness and I have VERY poor willpower around anything sweet! I've been diagnosed as pre-diabetic, and I STILL just keep shoving sweets and carbs into my mouth! I want to get out and walk daily, I've been saying that forever, but I really want to make it happen, also I've been working the ground where our new above ground pool is going, and I can't wait to get that set up, because I want to make myself go in it as much as I possibly can! I feel like that'll be excellent exercise and good for my joints and muscles! I want to find some exercises I can do that won't irritate my sciatica and moderate degenerative disc disease issues, so blah! I know everyone here is also trying to lose weight and battle certain demons of their own, but is there anyone here that can help me with anything? Is there anywhere I can go to get like a helper/coach type person? I'm guessing there's programs to sign up for, but I dont really have funds for that at this time. I guess I'm just really struggling @,# don't see myself going in the right direction without extra help. *sigh*

    I use a personal trainer that I found online and I've found it really helpful as she helps with workouts and nutrition. You have to pay for the program but I can dm you her instagram if you're interested as she posts tips too that are helpful.

    By favorite healthier sweet has been to spread nonfat greek yogurt in a thin layer and add berries to it and a little bit of chocolate, pop it in the freezer, and you get a yogurt bark that's really good and also gives you extra protein. I also like the Nestle Mini Drumsticks- only 70 cals for 1 and they're so fun and yummy

    @Stimpy56 - A gain is always a bit of a bummer, ain't it? Luckily, it's just a pound, which could be due to a million and a half things - you'll probably lose it and then some for next week!

    @melaniedscott -
    Oh boy, might be time for me to start long-form complaining again! I wonder if it will have the same bugs I fell in love with the first time around.
