All you you are amazing! This hike isn't until july 24th so I will definitely try to remember to let everyone know how it went. Thank you so much!

Hahahahahhaaha yes ive tried that. They hate it. It's a struggle to get them to do morning stretching before school.

My kids are really bad at loosing. So this would actually make them cry, even before any laughing would start.

Thank you!

I love this! I really do! And not today. I have to go to work. So tomorrow, PROMISE! And I shoveled today. So much snow! So much 🥺

I'm very self conscious. I'm not terribly overweight but technically I am. I'm only 5'3" and 170 lbs. I have a decent amount of muscle so you can't really see the fat I hold on too. But anyway I love how you guys say just let them laugh. They are brutal though. Haha. I'll have to get over it. I went to the eye doctor and…

I too am starting over. Once upon a time I hit my goal of 135, then life happened. Now I'm approximately 175lbs and a mom of 4. I've come to the conclusion that a diet really isn't an option right now. Changing my habits though, that's my number 1 goal.

I too am a mom of 4 and 40lbs to lose! I'm starting over for the millionth time. I have discovered I can walk my property line for about 20 mins that equals a mile. I also just invested in a stealth plankster. I want to get healthy! Feel free to add. I won't respond to personal messages though, just for anyone that sees…

I might have to try something like that too. Sweets are hard to get away from for me.

Baby steps! I love pasta. So a simple change from noodles to zoodles was easy. I don't like cooked zucchini so I will eat the zoodles raw. I also found a really good cauliflower mash recipe on Pinterest, and I don't even like cauliflower.

Thank you. I have no self control. Like I said I work in a family restaurant. And desserts are my weakness. We have homemade pies and cookies there daily! I eat cookies just about every other day I work. But on a positive note I have cut soda to almost nothing!

Thank you ladies. Fitbit finally sent me an email saying that I had to log out, restart my phone, and force stop the app. Then it worked. But I've been using ovia to track it. And I still am. Fitbit says my period was supposed to start 2 days ago and ovia says next week still. But now if I tap on the predicted period to…

I use the recipe builder quite often. I love it. That how I know how many calories and carbs my daily morning coffee is. (I add cream and sugar... Well now stevia)

As long as I am pre-logging daily yes I was.

I'm 5'3". Currently 173. Goal is 135

This time I have been eating healthier since I had my baby 2 months ago. When the doctor gave me the all clear about a month ago is when I started to exercise.

Normally for my dinners I follow a recipe then divide it into 4 or 6 depending on who's eating. Then left overs will get portioned into containers and in the fridge. Throughout the day for breakfast and lunch I follow the packages and measure it out with measuring spoons/cups. I currently do not have a scale but it is on…

I usually log everything but this last week I have slacked off with it. But I still have been watching what and how much I eat. I haven't over eaten since the holidays. I eat until I'm satisfied then move on. And technically I am overweight by 40 lbs.

I know my 5 year old can make it half way. There is a park 1 mile from our house which is half way between my house and where the farmer's market is held. Maybe we will start walking there as soon as it gets nice out and the snow melts away. Thanks everyone.

I Definitely ate the cake! 🤫 But I did go to work and had a somewhat healthy dinner. I had salad and grilled chicken. But I caved and had a small order of fries.

Thank you. This link is exactly what I needed to see. It is perfect. And some of the pictures are definitely motivation to get moving.

He would be able to get up the hill on his own. He's done it before. I'm mainly think about the long walk then getting to the hill. The hill is very close to my house. And after walking pretty much 4 miles he is going to be very tired.

😂😂😂

My grandmother asks me this quite often. One time I was feeling really bad about myself and she asked. And my response was, "no Grandma. I'm just fat" she thankfully has not asked since.

I have noticed that pre-logging does help some. I just have to get into the habit of doing it.

My goal weight is 135. My last lady doctor said that was a good goal to have with my height and build. And I try to eat as much protein as I can but I'm not even eating half the amount as I should.

And how would you go about changing an 8, 5, and 3 year olds to healthy snacks? They are already very picky about what they eat. Also it's rare that they get a ton of junk food. I usually get them animal crackers, cheese crackers, string cheese, and every few weeks I'll buy them the frosted animal crackers.

I also have 4 kids, ages 7, 5, 2, 8 weeks. I am tired very little motivation and weight to lose. Add me if you want.

I can not change the time we eat. My kids go to bed at 7 for school. They usually take an hour to eat.

Honestly I have no idea. But I have to do something for myself so I can keep up with the little ones. I'm tired of being tired.
