Had an ACL reconstruction and lateral root meniscus tear repair on 03/03/2024. Gotta figure out this activity thing. I work regularly with a nutritionist. I am a diabetic and also need to improve my A1c

I am in!

Re-started 1/1/25. 280.2 lbs
Goal my lowest adult weight 180 lbs
Height 5’6”
Age 56

January goals to walk 3k steps each day (1.5 miles) and log every bite. So far so good on day 12. I have a desk job and a very sedentary nature so this is a big increase for me.

Progress not perfection!

Hi guys! What is your plan? Mine is to start with SMART goals 1 month and 1 day at a time.
January goals
Specific: 3k steps per day (up from 700), log every bite, eat in a deficit of 1.5 pounds 6/7 days.
Measurable: step counter app, MFP, and weigh once a week
Attainable: steps and food set at a stretch but not out of my ability
Revelant: rewards for every 10 pounds lost and those rewards are stuff to assist on the next step of the journey (wrist and ankle weights in Feb)
Timely (Time bound): at 280 starting this time 10 lbs in the first month is completely do-able.

Day 14 was hard to get the motivation. But I did it with the help of utube fitness people. Slow and steady and consistent is the plan because I am worth it!
So are you!! What is your plan?

I am using this app and trying to get out and moce
more. Once I get further along I’d like to start lifting weights. So far so good! I wish we got notifications for replies and posts!

Hi Erin. Congratulations on your progress so far! You are rocking this! I agree - I have to search for it every single time. I am down (this time) 8.2 lbs. I am very encouraged by that. Bought myself a food scale today. I think my portion estimates have been off. I am using a free walking app that connects to my wellness on my phone to MFP. I want a real fitness tracker too but that is a reward in a few weeks.

Great job y'all!! My goal is dropping 100 this year to reach my lowest weight since 13, 275. I'm in my 40s and weighed in at 357 New Year's (down from 374 November 1). My goal is 275 by November 1. I play in a football league and have been working out regularly so almost down to my college football playing weight (328, 24 years ago). Looking forward to mutual encouragement and supporting you guys any way possible. Stay strong!! If anyone's in the Denver area, let's workout!! Peace.

AnnLang219 · January 20

Doc Hulk way to go! And welcome! Like you, for me this is a continued journey (my highest weight was 2021 at 324lbs), but I am trying to find the things that I love so will stick. Sending a friends request as well. WE got this!!

Hi teammates- We are 23 days into the Renewed and Revised YOU program. How are you doing? Let’s celebrate our accomplishments:
1) You are still here. Regardless of everything else, you showed up today for yourself. WAY TO GO!!
2) Did you do your exercise commitment that you made to yourself at least 50% of the time? That is showing up for YOURSELF!!
3) Did you drink the water 50% of the time? Way to hydrate!!
4) Did you stay on your food plan 50% of the time? Totally ROCK this one step at a time!

If you did your plan at least 50% of the time you are 50% better than last month/year.

Let’s finish January strong. Try to do just 1 more this last week. We got this!! YOU got this!!

Hi team. I saw this in another group and thought I would share. You can bookmark this group. But also you can subscribe to a discussion thread.

You've seen that little bell icon in the top right corner, yes? When someone mentions your name with an @ (like when I write @annlang219 to "ping" you) you will see a notification on the bell.

When you subscribe to a thread, you will a notification in that same spot anytime someone posts to the thread (even when they don't mention your name). It's a way to stay up to date on the discussions you're interested in.

Hi guys! It’s February. How are you doing? Congratulations for showing up for yourself in all the ways. What did you love this first month?

Hi fellow travelers on this journey to your destination. This is my 5th attempt with MFP to take my health and make my personal goals happen for myself (I think I was 9 when I went on my first diet) so if we are counting all the times I said I was going to do this - at least 35 times. I am in no way a failure those prior times. Each time, I lost weight and learned something significant about myself, about food, about exercise that stuck. Each one of those got me to try again. And over the course of the last 5 attempts I have lost weight and have ultimately not gained it back. How to do it?

Importantly don’t let a choice to eat a bite or a slice or even two send you on a binge or even worse abandon yourself and your plan. Even a whose *kitten* cake, log that crappy day post in your notes what you did and why. Look guys shame is how many of us got here. Try something new. Show up for yourself. YOU ARE WORTH THE INVESTMENT!

In THIS only losers never quit! You got this!!

Goal of losing 100lbs in 2025!
