2014 I was in the best shape of my life and felt really good about myself. I was a bit to confident with my health. I swapped jobs from a really active job to something that was not physical at all at the end of 2015. I put on quite a lot. I'm embarrassed how out of hand it is but I'm so determined and dedicated to get…

Search for a Keto calculator, it'll calculate how much protein, carbs and fat for you. It can tell you how much % of fat you have by your height, weight and measurements and base your macros on that. If you overdo the protein it can hinder your weightloss.

Over the past year and a half I put on an enormous amount of weight. I changed from an extremely active job where I was on my feet all day to a less active job. The weight kept piling on but each time I looked at the scales I thought to myself "meh it's not much" but now it out of control. Change your diet slowly and your…

Awesome, thank you

Hi, I'm from north qld and I have around the same to lose

I'm currently in another challenge, how often does this challenge come around so the next time I can join?

I remember hearing someone who was very over weight and lost it and kept it off say "it might be boring and it might be repetitive but you've just gotta do it" for some reason it just clicked for me. I wish everyone here well

I'm not sure if this will work but it's really worth the read, it has a few reasons for weight gain that might make you feel better https://www.beachbodyondemand.com/blog/ask-the-expert-why-do-you-gain-weight-when-you-start-working-out

I've had the same problem. I'm day 25 and I lost a few kgs in the first week but then the weight loss stopped completely, I actually gained a kg. I wasn't too worried about it at first but it's been over a week. I exercise for at least 1hr a day and I message and weigh my food. Even if I went over on my calories I don't…

I'm into my 3rd week and I lost quite a bit in the first 2 weeks but it all just stopped. I'm putting it down to muscle. I didn't exercise much at all but for the last 3 weeks been walking around 4k everyday. If it is plateau I've read it can last sometimes for a min of 4 weeks. I don't rely on the scales as much anymore,…

Take it week by week and don't be too tough on yourself. Stay positive

Start weight 103.4kg 5'5 Age 34 Goal is to lose min 6kg in 12 weeks

Full cream milk is my weakness

I was reading the other day that weight plateau can last more than 4 weeks. I'm not sure what the answer is but I guess be patient. Or try and trick your body out of it

Rosa if you go to the challenges section there's a new 12 week challenge starting on the 10th of this month you can join

This is a good app to kick start you weight loss and health journey. I wish you the best

I went to bed at 7:30 last night which I never do. I had a slight fever and chills. It's 10:30 am now and feel very weak. I'll keep up the fluids but might miss my daily walk for today. I'm not getting cravings or anything.

Today is my 12th day and yesterday and today I've really been feeling it. I've got the keto flu I think. I wish you well

I've been using this app for a couple of years and I'm still learning how to use it. I was just tracking my calories and exercise but just recently discovered the social side of the app. Keep exploring the app and you'll find your way around it

YouTube has a lot of good aerobics videos. I do them every now and then. Denise Ausmen I grew up watching and still I find her videos the best

Setting small goals is a good start. Originally my goal was to lose 30kg but for me I felt it was unacceptable so I halved to a number that didn't seem too overwhelming and achievable, once I reach that goal I'll set another to lose the rest. I wrote a list of food out that were healthy and I liked and tried to incorporate…

Wow that is pretty interesting, I had never really thought of it like that that they were 2 separate issues

One of my own theories is if your craving something badly your body maybe lacking in a particular nutrient so I started taking a multivitamin to cover that just in case. I also take vitamin b

I find chewing gum makes me more hungry. I think chewing gum tricks your stomach into thinking food is on its way then I get more hunger pains

Lollyolivia, I use to take apple cider every morning, I'm not sure if it was mind over matter but I felt it gave me more energy through the day. I recommended it to friends and they found the same thing. I don't drink it everyday now but when I feel a bit lethargic I'll put two tablespoons in a glass of water and now…

Craving are tough, I don't buy junk food but when I get the craving for something I can magically turn something that was healthy into something unhealthy. I read up a few posts and someone mentioned apple cider and I must say it does work for me but you need a lot of willpower to drink it.

I had worked in aged care for years but was made redundant and was unemployed for about 3 months. My job was quite active and once I stopped I put on a lot of weight, even after I started working in another job I continued to put the weight on because my new role was nowhere near as physical. I've put the weight on over 2…

Damn I had written a long reply but hit Done instead of reply :(
