Stayed the same weight this week, I’m finding the last 10lbs so hard to lose. It’s hard to keep motivated when the scales aren’t moving 😫

Sorry, I'm late again. We moved my MIL into a nursing home a few weeks ago. My emotions have been all over the place, but I'm starting to feel more like myself again and may even finally begin tracking food for my weight to move in the right direction again. I would love to lose 15 more lbs by the end of the year and finally fit into my wedding bands again.

Way to go, Weight No Mores! We pulled some incredible numbers last week, even if it didn't feel like it.

I often struggle with accepting how slow the weight-loss process is, and sometimes even consider giving up because that would be "easier"... but then I look around and see all the health (both mental and physical) complications I avoid just by trying to be better, and the journey feels worth it again.

This week, give me one of your reasons for being on MyFitnessPal, but without using any numbers. What feeling are we chasing? What negatives are we avoiding?

I'm here for the push to keep going even when progress is slow. There's something nice about sharing your ups and downs with like-minded people 😘 Now that I'm on a downward trend, there's a little bit of 'ooh, look how well I did' ☺️ I need to avoid self-criticism and remember that I'm on a journey to be a better me.

Oh Daria, that's so sad, it's good you feel that being part of the MFP community helps you get through each day 🫂

I don't know about anyone else, but weather here has been funny. I'm blaming the drop in steps on that. Even so, we broke a half a million for the week.

I just realized this afternoon that I put the wrong steps inlast week for @OllieAndEd2021...so you got credit for this block twice...

Our bolded members set a step goal for the week and met it!

Well done, walkers!!

I’m here because it keeps food in perspective and has helped me keep me accountable. I can look back and see what maybe worked and what hasn’t week to week. It’s also given me this group that is really supportive.

Positives that I’m chasing are seeing the scale drop.

Negatives I want to avoid is the disappointment I feel when I don’t see the scale drop(or it goes up). Lol

But back to positives for real, nothing about weight loss is linear. So I’m going to keep moving my body because I enjoy how it makes me feel, try to make “good” food choices and that’s the best I can do regardless what the scale says.

Oh @daria0919 I’m so sorry for your loss, I can’t even begin to imagine. I’m so thankful you are here and that we can be an outlet for you and be here when you need us! You are everyone’s biggest cheerleader and I’m happy to be apart of a team that has you on it!

@daria0919 i am so sorry for your loss. This is a great place to come for support or just to vent.

I‘be been struggling with motivation recently. It is so much easier to not do the things that will make you feel better. That’s my reason for being on here. I want to be healthy & feel better. I’m recommitting to this journey today! One day at a time 🤞🏻

@dorisv207 - Isn't it a bummer that sometimes the things that benefit us the most are the ones our brains just do not feel like doing? The number of times I have to talk myself into having something other than ice cream for dinner is incredible.

The struggle is real!
