Finished! Now for the scary part of reintroduction... Would love to hear how others handle this!

Did it! Made it! Now for reintroduction...

Day 17. Made it through Open house at work where we served pizza and lots of fun sized chocolate. Starting to get sick...ugh. Planning and preparing good food feels hard for me right now. Making tasty dressings is saving me from dreading yet ANOTHER meal of veges and protein. The Zingy ginger dressing from Well Fed2 is my…

Starting day 12. Didn't weigh-in today which was a tough break in routine. I'm still logging my food which I know is also a no-no. Still need to work on my late afternoon hunger. That after work - before dinner time kills me.

Consider me in! On day 9.

Thanks! I'm on :smile:

Today begins week 2 for me. Made it through the weekend, barely. Went to the movies and brought pistachios to snack on so I didn't reach for my family's popcorn. Bailed on a get together last night because I would have really wanted a drink; the main food was non-compliant and I didn't feel like being "that person" who…

I'm also 5'2 and at 133-134.

Age: 44 Height 5'2" CW: 134 GW: 125-130 Log my food everyday. Have been trying to lose these 5 lbs for a long time but seem to only lose a couple lbs and then gain them back every other week. TRY to eat around 1600 calories...

I am doing a walk/jog program where I walk for 30 seconds and then slowly increase my jog time and distance every week. I'm up to walking 30 seconds and jogging for 2 minutes for 1.75 miles. Next week I'll increase my jogging to 2m and 30 seconds and go for 2 miles. It sounds wimpy, but has kept me motivated with small…

I am with you! I would not set your weight loss goal for more than .5 lb loss a week. It will take a LONG time unless you do something drastic, which I don't recommend. I am still trying to figure it all out as well, even after 9 months of tracking. Personally, I am slowly lowering my calories from 1600 per day. MFP told…

I do the same. I take the average of the 7 days and log it on MFP every Sunday.

De-loaded everything today after reading all of your posts. Will add for squats and deadlift next time around. OHP will stay the same at 50. Was wobbly on the last set. My upper body strength is so wimpy! Today is a cardio day. S - 85 OHP - 50 DL - 85

Thank you!!

Question about deadlifts: Do you always start each reps on the floor like he says to or do only go down to mid shin? Deadlifts scare me. I'm always worried about my back.

On week 4. 90# squat, 75# BP, 70# BR.

Thanks! I just joined the group.

I'm 5'2 and weigh 133. My goal would be 125 but having a hard enough time getting to 130. Therefore, mt 1st goal is 130!

You can add me if you want.

Wow! Sorry to see a couple negative remarks regarding your journey... Geez. I agree with the guy who said to stick with your current revised plan and progress monitor. Body measurements might be a better thing for you to measure than weight especially since your goal is to lose inches. Good luck!! It will be slow but I bet…

You are doing what I would do as far as your settings go (whether that is correct or not, I don't know). With all your exercise, I would think you are burning more than an extra 300 a day. Your weight seems healthy so I'm not sure what your goals are. If you are not looking to lose weight, your eyeball measurements seem to…

So you do enable the negative calorie adjustment if you have a connected activity tracker?
