@mmccloy12 Don't apologize for venting! That's the whole point of this group, so you have a space to talk about weight loss, good or bad. I can sense the anxiety in your post. Its ok to feel overwhelmed and I totally understand where you anxiety is coming from. You've worked so hard and you don't want to see that progress…

@torihudson6 its moving in the right direction :) Looking at your mid-month goal check, you have been exercising and drinking water so kudos for that. I especially like the last goal of being nicer to yourself, so much easier said than done. @mhudson0328 Welcome! It seems like many of us have similar stories about losing…

@aliciap0116 Wow great job! The part where you talked about the small tangible goals as well as allowing yourself to live for special occasions resonated with me. I know I have self-sabotaged in the past by making my goals too restrictive or ambitious. Keep up the good work, you are so close to your goal, I'm confident you…

@amlundie every scale needs to be calibrated to make sure the results are accurate. Is it possible your old scale was not calibrated properly? Since this one is new I would trust it, bummer about the 6 pounds but you know you didn't gain 6 pounds! I think I'm gonna add a fancy scale like yours to my xmas wish list because…

Lots of posts since I was last on! Seeing the positive results has been very inspiring. Way to go @gonna_reach_the_goal33 and @HurleyHurley ! Also reading through the not-so-great results has been eye opening because I am reading a lot of the same problems I ran into this weekend. Thanks everyone for sharing <3 Nov 4th:…

Welcome @saemonroe395 , @I_Want_MyBody_Back @clkops and @johnava0484! I was able to do hike #34 after work at the park near my job. After I went home and made dinner just like I planned. I was under my calorie goal for the day :) Week Goal: 1/7 days 10,000 steps--not executing this as well as I would like. My steps are in…

@bluffgirl67 hoping everything goes well for your mom, you are a great daughter for being able to be there with her during this tough time @jguldi11 I wish you luck with your PCOS.

Hey everyone! So yesterday I went out for hike #33! Thank you @bluffgirl67 for your simple yet effective post encouraging me to get my hike done. I would probably have not made it without it :) Yesterday I ate my typical lunch (turkey n cheese sandwich with a small bag chips, calories ~420). I went on my hike and then went…

@bluffgirl67 awww thank you! Sometimes you get so caught up with the end result that you forget all the hard work you have already put in. I intend on meeting my goal of 52 hikes and look forward to sharing that with you all.

I went to the Magic Castle in Hollywood last night for dinner and a magic show. I looked at the menu beforehand to have an idea of what was offered. I try to do this whenever I eat out so that I make better choices. I had the 10 oz prime rib with veggies and mash potatoes. It was delicious and I ate less earlier in the day…

@christymarten I definitely have those days too. My brother is getting married this weekend so I am trying to figure out a plan so the whole day is not a cheat fest. I'm also trying to find other ways of rewarding myself that is not food. I feel like by not having food be my reward we take some of my power back.…

@marthaaustin74 I have had success skipping bfast in the past. I’ve come to learn to listen to my body and eat when I am hungry and I’m just not hungry in the morning so rather save those calories for later when I feel the hunger. @bluffgirl67 if you can you should definitely check it out! Would be a great way to spice up…

@zeriksen I have not been eating bfast at all for the most part. I never really did and don’t find myself hungry so early in the day. One the rare occasion I am, I have yogurt and granola at work as an emergency snack so I can have some of that. I try to intermittent fast and eat between 11-7 so this works with skipping…
