Sent you a FR. I would like someone to help hold me accountable and also give me motivation as well. 😊

You may need to increase your water intake and try to lower your total calorie intake a little more depending on what you’re doing now. And it could always be you aren’t eating enough or eating at maintenance. Just my personal thoughts without knowing more info! 😊 hope this helps! And good luck!

@sarahkb615 I have thought of that and it could be true but I’m not thinking in terms of amazing at a certain number in the scale. I am trying to slim down to fit back into my work pants that I wore just a couple years ago so not a big loss and not impossible. I am not miserable at my current weight just want to be more…

@quiksylver296 thank you I will check those out.

@quiksylver296 I do use a food scale but not very often. I normally only use it to measure meat or pasta

@MaltedTea I was doing a program of circuit training six days a week and now I am doing more cardio such as walking and I cut the circuit training back to four days a week. I also do two to three days of body weight workouts. And with eating I was just talking about calories in general. I was eating around 1300-1500 a day…

Thank you everyone for your input! I have some things I can try now and see if it helps! 🙂

@ecjim I haven’t lost any because I haven’t been eating only the 1300. I always eat more than that.

Well see that’s the problem. I haven’t been able to stay at that amount of calories. I log everything I eat and I am always over. Yes I set myself as sedentary and I do sit for most of my day. I’m an athletic trainer so I watch more than I do physical activity. But I exercise (mostly cardio and a little body weight…

I have it set to only lose a half a pound a week. And yes right now I am eating back my exercise calories because if not I am always hungry. I try to eat foods that are healthier like fruits, veggies, oats, peanut butter. I eat a lot of chicken also. So I’m stumped at this point on how to stay full and only consume 1300…

Thank you everyone! This means a lot to me and having support here and motivation will definitely help me to keep going on my non smoking journey to a healthier me!

Thank you! I haven’t smoked in over two weeks now!

Thank you very much! Those recipes sound really good! Can't wait to try them

Thank you!

Thank you for the ideas. That really helps.
