I'm in. Finished the last round where I started but I think I've got some water retention going on. Round 13 SW: 232.4 Round 14 SW: 232.4 Round 14 goal: 229 Day/Weight/Comment 8/21 - 231.8 - heading back in the right direction after my family reunion this weekend 8/22 - 230.6 - hoping this holds; almost as low as I got…

I have a dear friend with the same diagnosis. She swims daily for exercise. She also avoids gluten, caffeine, uses ginger and tumeric in her cooking as much as possible, takes a baby asprin every day along with fish oil and flax seed oil supplements, takes massive amounts of Vitamin D. Of course, all of this is done…

I have a gym membership just so I can use the treadmill when the weather is bad or it's too dark, etc. I hate walking on the treadmill, but it's the only other option. I usually just walk outside. But, I don't mind the price just so that I have a backup when I need it.

SW: 249 (March 2017); CW: 232.4 (although my official weigh in on Monday was 231.8); GW: no idea yet but for this round I'd say 230. Day/Weight/Comment 8/11 - 232.4 - up a little from my Monday weigh in but hoping to see that come back down by Monday 8/12 -232.6 - up just a touch, but took mom out to dinner last night so…

Are you weighing your food when you track it? Are you tracking absolutely everything? If you're gaining 5lbs a month you can't be eating in a deficit. Where did you get the 1400 number?

Fall is my absolute favorite season. Probably because I'm a fall baby. Can't wait for it to get here, even though the summer has been reasonably tolerable here in Upstate NY.

I find that, when it gets hard, I remind myself of why I'm doing it. I mostly walk right now. I've been slowly trying to add some jogging intervals in, but that's just because my personal goal is to learn how to run. You have to find something that you don't dread doing. At first, it was hard for me to make myself go out…

I've never been a runner. Never. But I still try. I can't run for any significant length of time. I'll run for a minute at about a 12 minute/mile pace and then walk for at least a minute - usually longer. Of course, this round of "trying" has been outside and I'm not good at controlling my pace outside. I may wait until…

Why are you eating so little? Your body may be holding on to what it has because of that. Less than 1,000 calories a day is not healthy. Just something to think about.

I have an 8 year old daughter. Feel free to add me!

So sorry to hear this. Breakups are never easy, but they can definitely be a part of self care. Make sure to be gentle with yourself during this transition.

I'll give this a try. I've been debating about weighing every day and this will give me a nice place to start and see how I feel about it.

This is awesome! Congratulations!

I weighed out one serving of Honey Kix the other day and I thought that was a lot. But, I don't normally eat cereal so I don't know what other serving sizes of higher calorie cereals look like.

I find that being active in the community here helps to keep me reminded of my goals and why I'm doing this. I'm also learning a lot in the process. Try joining a challenge - it helps to keep me motivated if I know I'm going to check in with people regularly. I always find that it is so much harder to do this alone.

I've only had chocolate and cookie dough so far. I like the cookie dough better. I'm interested in trying the Caramel Macchiato and Candy Bar flavors when they come out!

I want to quit smoking SOO badly, but I'm terrified to do it. Mostly bc I quit for 8 months but that was two years ago and I started again the day my father died. Been hiding it from my boyfriend ever since. So, need to quit but don't know how to finally just let it go. Did it cold turkey last time. Going to have to do the…

I google around for meal prep recipes on Saturday and find that sounds good and try it for the week. I've done this for two weeks now with really good luck. I started really tracking and prepping my food last week and when we went to the diner on Sunday morning I realized the toast was the first bread I'd eaten all week!

Mustard. Any kind but yellow (I just don't like the flavor of yellow).

My dad died two years ago today. Today sucks.
