I've got two: 1) I had to buy new shorts, and found that the smallest "plus" size was too big! I love the idea of not having to only shop in plus size stores. 2) My BMI is now 28.7 which makes me "overweight" instead of "obese"! Now on to getting to that "normal" range!

I just move on too - and try to think about it the way @sijomial described as "still progress, just smaller progress". If I tried to compensate for it by eating fewer calories the next day, I'd likely feel deprived and it might trigger me to actually eat more and not less. I do take medications that cause issues for…

I am diabetic and have a Dexcom CGM. It has been a huge benefit for me in managing my health, and I would highly recommend it to anyone struggling to manage their diabetes. I don't think it would be worth it for someone who doesn't have diabetes, though.

How much more stressful it is to not have a meal plan! If you'd asked me a year ago, I would have told you that I would get bored senseless if I ate the same thing day after day. When I started tracking my calories, though, I started creating a weekly meal plan - and I pretty much always have oatmeal for breakfast and a…

It occurred to me this morning that one of my NSVs is that I'm not really ashamed of my weight anymore. Not because I'm no longer overweight, but because I've stopped feeling like my weight is some sort of ridiculous moral failing or something. My whole life I've felt ashamed any time I had to say how much I weighed. Now I…

My next mini goal is to get under 200lbs (which is about 6.5 lbs away) by May 1st. It's not only a "yay! I'm in onederland!" goal, but that's when my BMI moves from the obese category to overweight.

I'd just tell her that you love her unconditionally, and you hate to see her sad about anything. That if there's anything you can do to help, to just let you know and you'll be there. But then let her tell you if there's anything she'd like help with, so she can decide if there's a particular way she'd like to be supported.
