Hang in there :) The closer I got to my goal weight, I struggled to lose a half pound every two or three weeks. Incredibly frustrating for sure

Woohoo :)

Woohoo :)

Yay !!!! Great job Rosie <3

Happy 4th everyone <3. It is going to be another hot day here :( We are heading out to visit friends and have a bbq tonight. They are smoking a turkey so I am hopeful I keep with the program and don't eat myself silly this weekend. I am really not looking forward to102 degrees today and tomorrow!! We are usually only in…

What's with someone pulling up all the three year old threads tonight?

Hi :) I am 5' , 54 and started at150 in December..... I just hit my goal weight of 120 using those exact macros :) The key for me was hitting the protein macro and fats and let carbs take what was left. If you go over on a macro, go over on protein. Just remember not to get discouraged towards the end. The last 8pounds…

I personally swim and it has been the best thing ever for shaping up my whole body in a low impact format, but I see a lot of people getting huge calorie burns from the elliptical machine. Bike riding is pretty huge too, but again it is all lower body. If your goal is to tighten up and not just burn calories, I would…

It is my understanding from friends with gluten sensitivity or intolerance it is done by means of an elimination diet, slowly adding back foods to see which ones cause you problems.

Congratulations Rachel <3. Your house sounds perfect!!!!! Yay!!! Glad to see everyone is doing well <3. My youngest son flew out Thursday to visit his dad's family in NY for two weeks. I was so excited to have my only break from being a mom I get each year..... Only to get a phone call from my oldest son about 4 hours…

Most likely it is water weight gain from excess sodium. It should disappear in a day or two.

Under the Nutrition section, click on calories... Choose weekly view and there are two tabs side by side... You can click on Total or Net and it will show you in graph form your daily totals as well as underneath it gives you averages, how many you are under for the week, etc. That is the only way I have figured out how to…

Can we hope you meant 230? Regardless, you may want to post under the fitness and exercise forum. Good luck

I just hit my weight loss goal and can tell you honestly it took as long for me to lose the last 8 pounds as it did the first 22 :s. It can be tortuously slow at the end.... Like half pound every two or three weeks.... You just have to stick with the plan, don't dispair and keep doing what has worked to get you this far.…
-
That is definitely one of the worst feelings when you think you have done everything right and are working so hard :s. The good news is, if it is water weight it will disappear in a day or two. Just stick with it. My final 8 pounds took as long as the first 22.... Sometimes as slow as a half pound every two or three…

Hahaha <3

Hi there :) double check your starting weight is set correctly. Several people start and then stop and when they come back their weight might be slightly higher than their previous low so weight losses won'tregister until they hit that previous low weight. If that is the case, you have to change it on the website using a…

It is under Groups now....... Search for: 20 pounds by the 4th of July! Outstanding loss @hstone20 <3. The final numbers go in anytime next week. So be sure to post to the group :) Tami

Oh my gosh Eninad....... That is so awesome :) You are my second friend within just a couple of pounds of breaking 200 !! You definitely have this <3

So glad to see everyone is doing so well this morning :) We are gearing up for a week of hot hot weather!! I really don't like high90's let alone the101 to 104 they are projecting by the weekend!!!! I am grateful my son is heading to N.Y. on Thursday to visit his dad's family for a couple of weeks. He has a myriad of…

I use an app called Water Your Body.... It works well for me :)

Hi everyone... I am 54 and a little late to find this party, but I started peri menopause in my early40 's. Because my mom developed a rare form of HRT induced breast cancer, my gyn didn't want to give me anything even short term. When I started the twice a month flooding menses I went the Murina route too but aside from…
-
First off, congratulations on such a fabulous loss :) I can attest to the fact the final pounds seem to be painfully slow...... For me that is about half pound every2-3weeks if I am lucky :/ Don't give up! I have had several friends move to maintenance calories for a couple weeks then back down to their deficit to tackle…
-
These macros worked for me as well . Don't give up :) Weighing and logging are a pain, but you will get that tightened up after a couple more weeks. Good luck <3

I am with Amy on this one..... My worst was 6 pounds in a day from sodium. I make my own soups in the crock pot so I can control the sodium, use a lot of Mrs Dash no salt spices. It stinks but I feel much better when I stay under 1750 sodium a day.

Hi :) I am 5', started at150 end of December/January and have recently reached120.5 <3. I am finally on the road of maintenance, and my losses were sometimes painfully slow..... You can do this !!!
-
I am within a half pound of my"goal" weight, but have given myself a 2 pound either direction margin. The last5 pounds for me were painfully slow :/ like a half pound every two or three weeks slow, but at about 10 pounds to go I had started adding back 50 calories a day for every 2.5 I lost so I could slide into this…
-
I am just working my way into maintenance, but I have come to realize I need to keep tracking too :( I guess that is why they call it a lifestyle change LOL.
-
I lost more than half my weight without exercise at all so you can definitely do it once you find your calorie sweet spot :) I often refer to this weight loss process as a never ending science project. Sometimes we just have to keep changing things up until we hit upon the right calorie numbers for our unique selves. Do…

Ohhh, Esther, I forgot to say you will love going to the Seahawks game <3. When my son was in college I actually learned I enjoy the college games more than the pros, but have been blessed to be surrounded by pro basketball, soccer, baseball and football teams. We usually try to hit one pro game per season just for fun. T
