1000% that is my biggest problem. Whether I do it for a day, weekend or lengths of time. Like, I do NOT know how to just treat myself with just a little taste. If I caved at lunch and got something that wasn’t the best choice I won’t go to the gym and work it off, i’ll say “might as well eat crap for dinner too” Or if we…

Challenge 12/9 tracked: yes under calories: yes activity: no Bad news on the ankle. It feels better but I am walking with a limp so I did not want to risk hurting it more. So resting it and icing it again. Hoping better for tomorrow. I did great with diet though. Protein bar for lunch, salad and soup for dinner. Still…

My wife and I were discussing the benefits (at least for physical health) of quarantining during this holiday season. Not sure everyone’s situation but this is ours, and kind of why we are getting motivated in early December instead of saying “oh well” for a whole month. Most people working from home means not walking into…

Challenge 12/8 tracked: yes under calories: yes activity: yes, work kicked my butt today. So active that now I can barely walk cause my ankle is so sore. I’m icing it down now cause I am not going to let the second day I’ve gotten back on track derail me Sun: n/n/n Mon: y/y/y Tue: y/y/y

@cmhubbard92 congrats on that great news!!!

I have really lost it lately. So much that I didn’t even know we were in a new month for this challenge. I was vacation from work last week and I stress ate/drank all the wrong things. So naturally I did not weigh myself and have no weight for last week. Good news: I made my first attempt at doing the right things since…

I’m the same way, not being very active when I’m down. Hence my month-long silence. But you are a great supporter always. You are allowed to have down times as well, it’s just being human. Hope things get better✌🏻

Last: 265.7 This: 263.4 I wasn't perfect but I tried this week. Went out for some walks. Didn’t track but I stuck to healthy foods I would eat when I do track. No stress eating/drinking all week.

@mooreshelly09 Thoughts with your family. So sorry to hear that

Sorry. 265.7 Dont remember my last one

I missed my weigh in last week. On top of my last post, I don’t need to say how stressful last week was. I was not productive in any aspect of my life. I will weigh in this week with a new starting point (for myself anyway) Looks like a lot of you did great! Awesome to see

Hey all. Welcome new people. Sorry for the long personal post. I know some people don’t like these conversations, so please move on if that is the case. For me sometimes it helps to put it out there. I’m still hanging in, though really not on top of things. When I get into mental funks I just can’t focus on weight loss…

Last: 262.2 This: 262.3 At least it wasnt a huge gain again

Last: 260.4 This: 262.2 I knew last weeks loss was some “magical fluke” Of course this week I got back to taking 3 mile walks everyday and gained two pounds. Ill never figure this out

Happy birthday @cmhubbard92

Last: 262.7 This: 260.1 Not sure how as I have totally given up the past two weeks

Hi, can I roll over my weight this week? I cannot get out of this mental funk and watching my caloric intake has unfortunately been one if the casualties of that. Thanks

Hey all. My goal for this month is to simply do better than I did last month. Not gonna set a number goal for anything, just going to try and make better decisions. Hopefully that will help me find a rhythm and have better numbers on the scale.

I’m here. Just having another week like last week (or month). Still getting my exercise in, just haven’t been posting daily for the accountability challenge. I was down 2 lbs from last week (Still up for the month) this morning so there is hope

Ours just opened around labor day. I have been using the excuse that I don’t feel comfortable going. But in reality my job had me going out to stores and restaurants even back in March/April when the pandemic was new and scary. So I have not had a fear of public places. Probably just making things up in my head so I had an…

Awesome awesome job!!!

Appreciate all the kinds words lately. This is why I need to stay here cause even in a struggling time you all push me forward. I am thinking I need to get back to my gym cause just taking the walks clearly aren’t enough for me. I might give that a go Monday or Tuesday

@prehistoricmoongoddess My goal is always 12 cups (96oz) a day. I always start my day by chugging 2-4 cups before work just cause I know I will be hydrated from the start and that will encourage me to keep at it. I know mine is also a very aggressive goal. And it’s actually a good thing you’t drink tea or coffee. Most…

Last: 263.7 This: 265.7 Gained back all of my late August vacation weight plus another pound 👎🏻

Thanks for checking in. Life is just a little too hectic these past weeks and I feel like a burden if I come on here and try to discuss it. I haven’t given up. My diet may not be as good as it should be, but I have been getting exercise everyday after work

Sounds like we are in the same boat. 5 lbs back and forth and never getting over that. I know it’s all my own fault but it’s sooo frustrating

Last: 261.1 This: 263.7 This week has been a disaster for me, so why not end it with a big weight gain
