Hi everyone. Iβve started this month badly. I donβt know why itβs so hard to stick to my goals - I want to eat 1540 calories but always end up eating 1700 - 2000. Iβm always hungry too. I donβt want to accept being fat - I really hate how I look. My mum is really big too and canβt move much due to arthritis- Iβm lucky I can be active at least but unless my eating habits change I wonβt lose weight. I want to at least get under 3 figures.

I'm Jen, 40 years old from Florida, married, retired mom with 3 kids, 4 dogs, and chickens.
Recommitting to weight loss, and just setting a daily track food & steps goal (good or bad) for now. Trying to limit fast food, and up my activity level (have lots of house cleaning to do and yard work to catch up on, now that i'm not sitting in front of a computer for 10+ hours per day...)
SW: 285
CW (6/30): 251.8
7/1: 250.8 - was very active yesterday, mostly shopping and playing with the kiddies. 4,056 steps & way over calories for today (had fast food for all 3 meals.. yikes) ... will definitely show up on the scale over the next day or two...
7/2: 250 - I'll take it! Did yoga today at the library with our 5 year old. Also did some reading while she was on the playground. I felt a little guilty for not getting more steps in while she played, but it was soo nice. 4,529 steps, and within calories for today. Also NO FAST FOOD today, I didn't cook but had lots of fruit during day and a home-made sandwich4 -
I'm back for July.

Hello I'm Darlene. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty), back for another month with this supportive group. I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2023, and with this group since April 2023. I have lost 83 pounds since the beginning of my journey and working on my last 10 pounds to goal (may change that when I get there). Happy to be back for another month.

Each month I write a reflection on how the prior month went - here is mine from June if you want to read it:June Reflection
June was a great month for weight loss, a slowdown in exercise!
I lost 4.6 pounds this month β even beat my stretch goal! Down 83 pounds from the start of my journey. Even with a trip to Hawaii during the month. I have five pounds to go to get my BMI to the ideal range, and 10 pounds to go to my goal. When I get there, we shall see what I do β I might just go a tiny bit further to say that I hit the 100-pound mark. That would be another 17 pounds from today.
I reached the 1,350-mile marker on my quest to walk 2,024 miles in 2024, logging 135 miles in June β my least number of miles since I started this journey in January 2023. My injury last month turned out to be a meniscus tear and have had to slow down. I got a cortisone shot and feel a little better β but decreased my step goal from 17,000 steps a day to 8,000. Iβm thinking I can move up to 10,000 in July. Although I have slowed down, I am still in the purple (that means I will make it) range. So far have averaged 7.45 miles per day. This tracker is all miles walked β not just intentional. I am also tracking my intentional miles, just to see how I do. To date I have tracked 982.05 intentional miles. This puts me at 48% complete β just below the 50% mark.
I did an experiment with Nutrisystem food in June. I order two weeks of food. Hereβs what I found out:
1. It works - I got over my plateau and continued to lose - lost almost 5 pounds in two weeks. π
2. It was super easy to follow π but, had we had to cook two meals daily - one for me, one for Greg. βΉοΈ
3. The food was edible - not fantastic, not gross π
4. I did not meet my protein goal most days βΉοΈ, but met carb, fat, sodium and fiber goals almost every day π.
5. Most days the calories were about 1,350 - ranging from a little under 1,200 to 1,600. I wasn't hungry. π
6. I usually eat 5 fruits/veggies a day - but switched to 4 veggies one fruit on Nutrisystem. π
7. It's doable as a quick fix, I couldn't do it long term. π
8. Overall - I am extremely happy with the weight loss. So overall score! π
9. π©βπ³ I like to cook!
10.
We took a trip to Hawaii midway through the month. Overall, I am very happy with my dedication on the trip. We did not have access to the fitness center β so my exercise consisted of swimming and walking. I logged everything I ate and drank to the best of my ability. I was over my calorie goal and more importantly my sodium goal every day, but not by huge numbers. I ate breakfast every day, and many lunches as well. I limited my alcohol. Only one day of two drinks, and many with none. I ate only half of my dinner entre β boxing up the rest for breakfast or Gregβs snacks for the future. I gained weight, but within the week home lost it all.
Looking at my June goals, I did well β except never finished The Burning Page. I just couldnβt through it. Will try to find something fun to read for July!
My July Goals
β’ Lose 4 pounds (always my goal), but be happy with a 2% loss for the month

July 1 144.3 π π£ π π₯ π« π¦ π§ME! Happy with the weight loss. I'm sick. Head stuff, ears clogged. Hoping it doesn't last long. I did manage to get my monthly budget completed yesterday. June was a disasterous month - have to curb our spending for the next few months to make up for our trip to Hawaii!
July 2 145.2 π£ π πͺπ§ββοΈ π¦ π§ME! Have to lower my step goal. Had doctor appointment yesterday - no walking for two weeks. Knee isn't healing like it should. Probably over did it in Hawaii. Looks like seated cardio - or get my butt to the lake for a swim instead of walking. But I just love my morning walks with Monty. Still feeling crummy - sore throat, stuffy ears. Also feeling sorry for myself - had little binge yesterday and was over my calorie limit - not by a lot - but over.
July 3 144.5 π£ π π₯ π« π¦ π§ME! Just a small cardio workout yesterday. Spent the day cleaning the house. We have been focusing on the outside and the garden that I neglected the inside. It felt great to get it done. I love a clean house. Going to the doctor today for this sinus thing I have. I can't hear at all out of one ear, and now I have pink eye in both eyes! Guess it's time for some meds.

Hi, I'm Jill!
I'm 54 and have been married 28 years. I have 2 children-- a son who is 23 and a daughter who is 19. I work full-time selling new construction homes, and I absolutely love it! Yardwork is also one of my favorite things to do...from grass cutting to weed wacking...if I can be outside, I will be playing in the yard.
This is the month that Iβll get to 200 pounds. I can feel it!

I overslept this morning; I must've needed it, because I didn't feel my watch alarm go off at all - nor the buzz every 10 minutes after that. I feel pretty good though, and I don't work until this afternoon, so it was worth it.
Yesterday was spent on de-stashing craft supplies. I needed to tackle my bead stash, and finish some partially completed earring projects. It's been years since all this stuff was sorted. I have about 15 bead boxes full. I'm not finished but it's about 80% cleaned up. I will probably donate beads that I don't want to granddaughters at the end of this month. I learned from painful experience to put the different bead types into tiny ziplock baggies and then stack those baggies on their edge in the little divider sections in the bead boxes. I've had times over the years where I would accidentally knock over an open bead box, and a thousand little beads would scatter all over the floor. Miyuki seed beads, or 3mm sterling silver daisy spacer beads, strewn across the carpet is a somewhat expensive disaster.2 -

I am making July's goal with caution. We have multiple parties to attend throughout the month. I had 3 this past week and by making wise choices, sticking to serving sizes, and keeping up my exercise program, I was able to enjoy many deserts and rich foods, and still lose 1.5 lbs. And to my surprise it didn't trigger a binge, this was my first time eating sweets since 1/31/24, I was so nervous with the first bite, but it all worked out ok. This month will be a huge test. I have a good support system in place and am re-training my brain in regards to food. Wish me luck π€

Weight in blue makes me blue because itβs a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because itβs a loss. Weight in black means no change.
07/01-187.0-(Trend Weight 186.6)-
07/02-185.4-(Trend Weight 186.3)- Yesterday was a good day and it reflects on the scale this morning. Sometimes it doesnβt show up right away, even with the best efforts so I was grateful to see a better number. Last night the food monster named Mr. Chocolate came out in full force. This time I won. I told myself quite clearly and TRUTHFULLY that another square of my 70% dark cocao chocolate was not going to satisfy me. I would just want more, and then more and then more, more, more, more, more, more. All another square (or two or four) would do is stop me from making any progress this morning on the scale. What it would NOT do is scratch my itch as the cravings NEVER EVER end. I mean, even when Iβm over-full I just want more. After reasoning with myself, I skipped the chocolate. I donβt always win this battle but last night I did. Letβs hope for more nights like that. I want to type in pink way more often in July. June was mainly black and blue and I'm feeling very bruised over it.
07/03-185.4-(Trend Weight 186.3)- I am seriously lacking water. Iβll work on that today. Finally not freezing here in Northern Michigan. A nice warm day so far after the morning rain ended. Humidity through the roof.

Great work everyone. So nice to see you here again! Hope I can do better this month.
I have a gym membership going to waste - Iβve been a total of 3/4 times. I really need to get to the gym at least twice a week this month and also need to walk the dog most days - itβs hard for me because fibromyalgia tends to get worse when Iβm run down.

Hi,
I'm Cindy. I'm 50, 5'4" and 163 as of this morning. I have fought with the same 10lbs for the last year.
So my doctor wants to put me on Wegovy or Zepbound. Between the cost and doing a little research, I don't think its a great solution. Looks like it might be a rest of life commitment. No thank you!
So today I joined a gym. I haven't been to a gym in probably 15 years and that was Curves. I loved Curves, I wish there was one my my area.
I see my doctor again at the end of August, so I want to loose at least 10 lbs by then to prove I can do it without meds. My ultimate goal is 135 lbs.

June was a great month for weight loss, a slowdown in exercise!
I lost 4.6 pounds this month β even beat my stretch goal! Down 83 pounds from the start of my journey. Even with a trip to Hawaii during the month.

My injury last month turned out to be a meniscus tear and have had to slow down. I got a cortisone shot and feel a little better β but decreased my step goal from 17,000 steps a day to 8,000.

Missed my water goal by just a little bit yesterday. But I was under my calorie limit. Still working on that bead stash, I keep finding little containers with beads or half finished projects in them. But I'm off work for the next 5 days so I'm hoping to get that all done and work on the basement to do some cleaning and organizing, and a few runs to the donation center.
Tonight we pick up a couple of granddaughters and take them out to dinner, and then to watch fireworks. Lily is 10, and Evee is 8.3 -
@ilive2walk I'm so sorry to hear about your knee, and also that you have a head cold. I'm relieved to hear it's not pink eye. Sinus infections suck but the antibiotics will get you feeling better. Glad you found a good seated exercise on YouTube.
Re: apple a day, No, it hasn't seemed to make any difference what time of day I eat it. Sometimes breakfast, sometimes afternoon snack. I did a little bit of online research and it sounds like of common fruits, apples are the highest when it comes to laxative effect. Who knew?!
@jm216 hey look at you! You're doing great! Keep up the logging.
@lifechanges2day Best of luck to you during your month of parties.
@deepwoodslady So glad for you to see that little whoosh! Extremely proud of you for winning the battle with chocolate. I'm like you with certain things, and it's not that hunger is driving it but really, almost an addiction to flavor or to taste, or to the dopamine release that is caused by the pleasurable flavor. What do you do when your brain is addicted to its own dopamine!?! It's a very difficult war.
@ozdeelite You've got this! We're all behind you encouraging you. You can get out and walk the dog, and you can get to the gym. Looking forward to seeing good results for you.
@cinw1501 welcome welcome! We hope that this will be a really encouraging group for you, and we know how hard 10 lb can be! You've got this!
@mommiejeannie hey, look at you!! You go, girl! Boxing! Wow I'm really proud of you.4 -
Forgot to say Happy 4th of July for all who celebrate? Any plans for you today? Nothing worth noting for me - perhaps we'll grill for dinner!
I missed the next page of posts when I was reading today - so:
Welcome @cinw1501 - glad to have you here!
@MommieJeannie Good for you signing up for boxing; it sounds like so much fun. Let us know how you like it.6 -
@Ilive2walk hey I just remembered something. Do you do nasal rinses? Like the Neil Med bottle or a neti pot? Long story short. I used to get a lot of sinus infections, three to four times a year. My ENT recommended doing saline rinses a few times a day when I had nasal congestion or felt like a sinus infection was coming on. And it really did make a difference. I had to learn how to tolerate the water flushing through my sinuses, but it did bring relief pretty quickly. If you've never tried it, the benefits are: It lowers inflammation, thins mucus, and salt itself beats back active infection in the sinus cavities. I can also recommend a product called Cofix, you can find it on Amazon, and it also helps to fight any virus that may have initiated the infection.3
