Winter is coming, I have tons of jeans, it's just that none of them fit. Initial goal get down to 199 (25lbs to go). Then 10lbs at a time from there until I get down to 170. Then ALL my clothes would fit properly again

Does it count if I'm trying to lose pregnancy weight from 5 years ago?

Weigh in day: Friday Weigh in week 2 PW: 223.6 lbs CW: 224.7lbs A little disappointing...but I'm going to keep on keeping on.

I'm glad I chose Friday for my weigh in day because I gained 5lbs over the weekend! Eeek. I know it's highly unlikely that I gained 5lbs of fat, just water retention and food in my belly. No regrets though, I had an awesome weekend! Back to the grind today.

I missed my weigh in yesterday!!! I was so busy with work and then a music Festival in my little town, that I completely forgot 🤦🏼‍♀️ SW 223.8 CW 223.8 (Friday) Sorry! I’ll try not to let this happen again. (The music festival was really fun though)

What exactly are you unsure of?

5AM, phew. That's early, more power to ya! I need to start getting up earlier. My husband is usually up by 4:45, I really should start getting up with him in the mornings. I can't leave the kids alone sleeping, but maybe I could run laps up and down my driveway. I should drive it to see how many times up and down would be…

Phew, I just did 3 miles in 36 mins. I haven’t run in FOREVER, so I’m pretty proud of myself. Great way to start this challenge off

Great idea! I’m in, let’s do it! Wasn’t planning on drinking today and I’m going to dust off the old treadmill and take myself for a spin. It’s been a while, so I’m hoping to get 3 miles in under 35 mins. Then maybe go for a walk with my mom. We’ll see.

Hi Everyone - My name is Sherry and I'm from a tiny town in Northern California. I'm 33 years old, soon to be 34. My ultimate goal is to lose 50 lbs, which would put me at 175ish pounds (I'm 5'10"). I got down to 188 a few years ago and have slowly gained it all back, which I'm disappointed with myself for letting happen.…

Urges are just passing thoughts. Don't take any action, just let the thought pass. Maybe go do something to distract you. Play a game, go for a walk, clean the house, fold the laundry...

I would need to share that with someone too!

Yeah, that. As soon as you eat (insert food here) either log with your phone before you eat it or directly after.

5/08 - 220.2 - Last week I was at 215.4 and I know a 5lb gain of fat is quite literally impossible. I had WAY too much fun over the weekend and it is definitely reflected on the scale today. 5/09 - 218.8 - Did good yesterday. Had a piece of homemade cheesecake BUT it fit into my calorie allowance, so it's all good in the…

I love this! Small goals are a great start & definitely add up over time. I need to kick it into gear and get back on track. Swimsuit season is literally around the corner. 5/08 - 220.2 - Last week I was at 215.4 and I know a 5lb gain of fat is quite literally impossible. I had WAY too much fun over the weekend and it is…

Your future self will thank you

I understand that, and I plan on staying within my calorie goals. I wanted to try intermittent fasting because it seems like it's good for a lot of people

Har har, I see what you did there. I've been seeing these on my Facebook feed lately (super annoying). The only reason I would get one is so I could wear it under a tight *kitten* dress and not look like a sack of cream corn in it. Don't waste your money. You body will go back to its original shape once it comes off

Are you trying to leave ranch & thousand island out because of the calorie content? You totally don't have to, if that's the reason. Just make homemade dressing. Ranch: 1/2 cup low fat mayonnaise 1/2 2% milk 1.5 tbsp of hidden valley ranch mix Roughly 32 calories/tbsp of dressing Thousand Island same principal (I don't…

Kind of like MFP...

I usually have a snack (hard boiled egg today) around 11, walk from 12-12:40 and eat lunch afterwords. The little snack gives me a boost of energy and then I eat lunch when I get hungry again

Awesome!!!

La Croix - it's fancy water

Stretch marks are...a part of life (for some people). Learn to be comfortable with your body. If he judges you on superficial things, like stretch marks, he's not worth your time.

Sparkling water

Gah, if only I were that organized and less lazy... 4:30 - husbands alarm goes off (wakes me up, so annoying) 5:00 my alarm goes off, hit snooze 5:04 hit snooze 5:08 hit snooze 5:12 hit snooze 5:16 hit snooze 5:20 consider getting in the shower 5:25 in the shower 6:00 run around like a crazy person gathering school…

5'10" 205, trying to get down to 175

I'm no doctor, so take this with a grain of salt...you would probably be fine with trying to lose weight for a few more months. You only really need those extra calories when the baby is bigger and "eating" what you're eating. Even then, it would probably be okay to eat at maintenance.
