Im in, ready to refocus. Similar position to Tmac (dont have the knack yet of quoting". Lost a stack , gained some back and refocusing now. Going slow this time but hopefully not in reverse!

Thanks Cremorna1 So I bought the "Beck diet solution" book and worked on the psych part myself. It helped me get rid of the "all or nothing" mindset I had, and also recognize a couple of other thought patterns that were keeping me from losing weight. That being said, I still count my calories :) A Psychologist put me onto…

What does NSV stand for? sorry Im sure it will be obvious....

Great stuff. You are an inspiration!

Weekdays I either have: soy- lin (Burgen) bread toasted 1 slice with avocado, cherry tomatoes and a poached egg on top (done in microwave). or same toast with ricotta and strawberries, or sometimes overnight oats - half a cup with chiai seeds/cinnamon /half a cup unsweetened almond milk/blueberries and always a cup of tea…

Hello. I'm new to the group. Focus for one month will be good to turn things around. I have been struggling with gym closure and weight gain so time to get it together. Thanks for this group. Currently weighing 98kg (215 lbs). I'm good at tracking just realise there is lot of food in my day to track! So hoping to cut the…

Thanks for these posts. It helps for me to see that others are struggling too. I am able to go to work (Australia) but sedentary job. Nightime I have lost the plot as I cant go to gym and snack after dinner which compounds the problem . I think Im in mourning as the gym was my daily segue between work and home. I aim to…

Thanks for your replies

TinaZ great inspiring story and journey. I'm in a similar space. Lost quite a bit in 2016, gained some back. Always train 4-5/7 but my eating is ad hoc, so yes ready to reign it all in. good on you for sharing the ups and downs of life and your progress. Thats what it is; progress. Can I join you on your trip down? I'm off…

Welcome! Enjoy the app!

GenieJeanie. Your inner teenager will rebel at one point no doubt. Lock her in her room, throw away the key. Talk to her adult to child. Write down your honest reasons for doing this..on a card or digitally. Be really honest with yourself. Read your cards every day! That really helped me. I got it from a book receommended…

Welcome! You can definitely do this. I’m with “intheknow8”. I lost 36kgs (in australia)..about 80lbs back in 2015..gained back 20 kgs last year..long story..it always is..but am refocused now and we all know what we have to do! Aim happy to add you both. Lest do it.

Thought I might throw my hat into the ring as well. I turned 61 on Christmas Eve this year. In 2015 I lost 36kgs (79lbs) by using MFP (about 1500 cals per day) as well as working out at the gym 5 days per week. I had a PT once per week. I maintained for a year. Last 18 months (was a bit rough emotionally) I gained back…

So after getting off to a flying start last week and feeling good, I undid it all on the weekend. I know what the issue was (it was one year since my mum died and I felt very sad). I think that first year of first birthday / Xmas etc etc without your mum is very hard(regardless of her age[97] or mine[60]!), so today I have…

This has been a good focus for me. Already my head is clearer. I have eaten clean for almost 3 days now. Trained for 2 and going to gym again tonight. Told my trainer my plan. For me, its all about night time snacking..Just stop it!! (talk to self). I have locked up my Inner Labrador and am going to be accountable. I have…

Hi everyone. I ate to plan and within calorie goal for the day. Did a workout at the gym (mainly cardio). Have a few health problems at present that are being investigated so I'm pulling back on the strength and just doing longer cardio which is fine (low intensity). If I can just keep the intake side of things in check I…

Hi Sandy Thanks for hosting this group. I'm in! Today I'm 95kgs (209 lbs), so end of October 4% = 3.8kgs (8.36lbs).

Count Me In Please! I've lost a lot, but gained some back so I know what I have to do..some buddies for 12 weeks along the way would be grand!
