Welcome! You seem to have a great attitude and that will go far. I've been going at this since right after the New Year and I'm down almost 20 lbs now and feel SO much better. Stick with it, you'll find support here and reach your goals.

Amazing! Thanks so much for sharing your story. I have a similar tendency to go to extremes that de-rail my weight loss, but like you I am approaching it much more balanced this time and having better success. Keep on keepin' on!!

@cathyd1000 glad to hear you had a great day yesterday and that your workouts have gotten more intense! @happykee awesome that you are feeling great! Keep it up!

Hey gang, hope everyone's week is off to a great start and congrats to everyone who posted a loss last week! I started my week off right with a "mental health day" yesterday - I took a 3-mile hike, walked the dog about 2.5 miles and got in 20 minutes of yoga. I feel so rejuvenated today, it's insane!! B)

What an inspiration! You must feel so much better. Good luck on your final stretch and thanks for sharing. xxx

I haven't weighed myself in a few days so I didn't psych myself out for my "official" weigh-in tomorrow. I am hoping to be down between 2.5 and 3 lbs since last Friday but we will see! GOOOOO RED TEAM.

@lcuconley congrats on your loss! I have been keeping up with you on my news feed and you are a machine!! :) Have fun burning those cals and make something yummy and nourishing!!!

In addition to the inherent benefit of less sodium in your home cooking, I feel like when you cut back on processed foods anything that has loads of sodium tastes WAY TOO SALTY. Your palate changes in a way. Same with sugar (IMHO). Keep up the good work everyone!!

I am rooting for you! Feel free to send me a friend request. It might seem like you are embarking on an impossible challenge, but taking it choice by choice, hour by hour, day by day, and even minute by minute will help. You're worth it.

Monday's daily challenge is eating a healthy breakfast, so I thought I'd do a quick post about what has quickly become my FAVORITE weekday breakfast: pumpkin pie overnight oats. At night I put 1/4 cup steel cut oats, 1/4 cup pumpkin puree, 1/4 cup almond/soy milk and a tsp each of pumpkin pie spice and maple syrup for…

@lcuconley Happy Friday! I was down 4.8 this morning... the following weeks will be much smaller than that but i'll take it! Weight loss twins :)

Doing jumping jacks in one of the larger conference rooms (with a door that closes) in my office today... Glad everyone on the red team seems to be doing well! Let's hope we kill it in week #1!

I drink 1-2 tbsp of Braggs ACV every morning diluted in 32 oz. of water with some lemon also. It tastes good to me and I definitely experience a difference in appetite and energy levels! I've also noticed that if I start to feel a cold or sore throat coming on, I'll take it twice a day for a couple days and the illness is…

Welcome, Jennifer! I fully understand your frustration, just try to remember that you didn't put the weight on overnight so it's not going to come off overnight! I find that having a support system on here is a HUGE help in me staying on track so feel free to add me. Try not to focus on the numbers, focus on how you feel…

Anyone looking for friends feel free to add me - I am 31 y/o, have been logging for quite some time but am ready to get more serious about it, work on better portion control, being more diligent with my exercise and would love to make some friends for mutual support/encouragement along the way. I am looking to lose about…

I am in! I am hoping to hit 180 by then, which is 27 lbs (almost exactly the same goal as you!) My boyfriend and I were thinking of both dressing up as St. Pauli's girls - German beer wenches (the joke being in his costume, of course!)
