Not even sure how this happened. :( Hopefully this is not a trend and next week’s weigh-in is better.

I go hard on chickpeas! Haha. Not really a hardship as I love them, but I need to find some other alternatives or new ways of using them. I eat a LOTTTT of curries. They really keep me full for a long time though, and are very inexpensive. Double bonus.

Okay, I’m going to try this again! Tried the January challenge but couldn’t get on track. I really want to focus on meal planning. Without that I end up relying on a lot of bread/pasta that does not keep me full for long and then I am snacking at night. I know that protein-rich meals keep me full for longer but I’m…

Completely derailed myself in February. Work has been so busy and feeling down about my career, so just mentally checked out and stopped meal planning. Feeling a bit better now that I can see the light (spring) at the end of the tunnel (winter), lol. I lost all my progress, but am determined to get back to my pre-Covid…

Finally seeing some movement after dropping to 1400 calories! As soon as i reach my goal I’ll increase back to 1500 for maintenance.

No loss this week, despite being under my calorie intake each day and weighing food. I may have to adjust my intake from 1500 to 1400. From experience, I know I can’t go below that - I’ll be too hungry and will not enjoy my meals. SW Aug/2017: 220 Pre-Covid Jan/2020: 160 Jan/2022: 176 March GW: 165 June GW: 155 Jan 3:…

It feels great to be meal planning and tracking again! Boredom eating has been a big problem for me recently.

I’m in too! I really need to get this Covid weight gain under control. It keeps slowly creeping up as I haven’t been meal planning or calorie tracking.

It’s been a very stressful week at work plus closing on buying a new house. Struggled a bit to stick to my meal plan but fortunately I have a freezer full of batch cooked portioned meals which definitely helped when I had no motivation to cook.

Feeling great this week after meal planning, and sticking to plan! This is 100% the thing that works best for me and prevents mindless snacking. I allow 1500 calories per day (I just override the MFP amount) and enter the plan 1-2 days in advance so there is no question about what I’m eating on that day. April Goal Weight:…

I’ll join as well! I lost 60 pounds a few years ago and was successfully maintaining without tracking until the pandemic hit. 15 pounds have slowly crept on, mostly just eating too much due to boredom! I started running last August but the pounds haven’t shifted so clearly the calories are the problem. April Goal Weight:…

Goal reached! I've been trying to transition to maintenance for the last month or so, but I'm finding it difficult mentally to change my calorie intake after being strict about 1500/day for the past year.

Pleased I didn't gain more, tbh. It was a struggle to eat healthy when I was eating out for lunches and dinners, and didn't have much input into the restaurant choices.

Late weigh in this week as I've been away camping (i.e. eating too many sweets)... the hiking seems to have balanced things out for the most part.

I'm weighing in a little early but am happy with this week's loss. :) I am off to Japan for 18 days so I will miss the next 2 weeks of weigh-ins. Fingers crossed that I don't gain too much!
