I lost 80 pounds 6 years ago after I had my girls. I've done good to keep it off til the last year. I'm actually more active now bc of work bc I was a stay at home mom then. That's why I don't understand why I'm not losing. I use the Fitbit and I average 12-15k steps a day during the week and then exercise 2-3 times a week…
-
Yeah. It started out 26 but had a place to do extra weight loss boost (of course I pressed it!) and it changed the points to 23. I did really good on the old plan. I'm struggling with this one. I didn't have to log my food for a couple years. I maintained (I'm very active during the day at work) Now my hormones are crazy…
-
My points were 20 on the old program and 23 (weight loss boost on app) now on the points plus. Maybe I need to go to a meeting to catch up on the new program. I thought I didn't have to use the extra 49 points every week?
-
I did not know that. Thank you! I haven't been to the meeting in a while. I was just using an app that does the points and I've never seen it add points for fruits and vegetables. Maybe I'm not eating enough.
-
I did eat fruit. I had apples and pears. On WW fruits and vegetables are usually 0 points. I may be wrong tho

Happy birthday! Enjoy the calories. Lol

I'm allowed 1200 calories a day and sometimes it's hard to stick to when I'm craving something.
-
That does help. I give myself a cheat day every once in a while. Sometimes I can't handle it bc then I want to cheat the next day and then the next and then it turns into a disaster!

Yeah. Sorry. I'm at work and I was in a hurry. Thanks for the advice.
-
Thank you for the advice!
-
It was 3 weeks. I did enjoy eating more. Maybe I rely on the scale too much. That time of the month may have had an effect too. Thank you for helping!

Slow thyroid runs on both sides of my family. I have been tested and it's slow but not enough for medication. And my metabolic rate has been tested.

When I first got my Fitbit I was doing weight watchers and points. I decided to go strictly by the calories on the Fitbit and I gained 5-7 pounds almost immediately! I was devastated. It's hard to lose.
-
I would have had 1500 total calories to eat that day. 300 was from exercise. I actually gained weight going by my Fitbit calories. I have a VERY slow metabolism. I always have. My Fitbit almost synced itself! Lol.. It's under apps on MFP. It will redirect you to another site to add and authorize the Fitbit.
-
Thank you for responding! I'm given 1200 calories a day. Yesterday my Fitbit added 300. I wasn't really hungry but I want to stay healthy. I'm very active at work and usually get my 10,000 steps during the day. I would rather lose a lot of fat than muscle! :)
-
I do need to be held accountable bc it's easy not to stick with it if I'm not held accountable! Thank you

Thank you!

Sent you a request

The last 10 is the hardest. I lost a lot of weight 6 years ago. I've recently gained 20 back and I'm looking to lose it again. I feel lost starting all over again! I need support and motivation too!

Thank you!
