24yr old Single Mom with three jobs
Hello! The tittle says everything and I’m excited to keep losing weight - I started intermittently fasting but seems like I got to be more intentional with what I eat so logging all the calories at first seem daunting and not good for the mental health but it actually makes me want to hit my goals more. Funny😅 here for any…

That scale. Blessing and Curse.
It can be very discouraging when you suddenly jump up 3 Lbs and then .5 the next day. It doesn't really mater to my lizard brain that I dropped 21 LBS in 17 days. A lot of that was water weight due to a medication change. I'm sure the upswing was just my body adding some water weight/waste weight back and it will start to…

🚶♀️🚶♀️🚶♀️ Setting a goal 🎯🎯🎯 and reaching it!
Years ago I weighed 288 lbs used a power chair 97% of the time. When I decided to start to lose weight. I'd lay in bed doing all I could to move one leg, than the other, later one arm, later an arm. That was my start. In time I started to take a few steps adding in a little bit more at a time. I had moved out of state…

How do you get your head (self image, self-talk, confidence) to catch up with your weight loss?

Lately my habits have helped weight loss seem “too easy” and I expect to wake up any day and find that I’ve regained the 35 pounds I’ve lost, or that once I hit my goal that I won’t be able to maintain it (like the yo-yo weight I’ve done my…
