Popping in to rave: I tried on a pair of pants that I loved but I had gained too much weight to wear anymore, and they FIT!! I can even sit in them without suffocating. I thought I had taken a picture when they weren't fitting, but I can't find it. But I remember, they got tossed to the "too-small" box for a reason. :) I'm…

PW: 218.6 CW: 216 Keeping my GW maintenance calories in mind has helped immensely this week. I haven’t been to the gym but I’ve been enjoying the weather with little walks.

USA folk remember to do your taxes (I'm doing mine today). I got 11k steps yesterday. Pikmin Bloom has "community days" where you can earn virtual flower badges for hitting 10k steps. There were two days to try for it, but they don't accumulate across the two days. Saturday I thought IKEA would be enough, it definitely…

Saturday Weigh-In PW: 217.6 CW: 218.6 I am staying under 220 at least. 😆I talked to my boyfriend and we’re gonna set up a Switch dock in our bedroom so I can play some Samba de Amigo when the living room tv is busy. Our TV is mounted high up in our room so we gotta get shelves to sit the Switch on. We are also learning I’m…

I wish I knew how to make "healthy" friends so I wouldn't feel so alone. I co-hosted a party and failed to not eat a ton of desserts. My roommate tried to make excuses for me. I agree I don't deserve to hate myself about it, but bocce ball and egg hunting is not equivalent to a marathon for me so no, my dear friend, that…

Saturday Weigh-In PW: 218.8 CW: 217.6 I didn't expect a whole pound to leave but I'm happy 🤩Last night at the gym I did assisted pull ups and dips, 5 minutes on the row machine, 10 minutes walking, and squats. Then I hopped on the hydromassage. It was chill. I feel like going on a long walk somewhere, I convinced my friend…

I didn't stand my ground yesterday and watched a triggering movie my dear friend really wanted to watch for some stupid reason instead of going to the gym so now I'm a creature full of hate. An evening of fixing my bathroom and watching a movie that dumped adrenaline in my system was not in the plan but I failed myself. I…

HAPPY APRIL FISH DAY!! Look out for pranks. I saw Kraftwerk last night. It was a sit down show, but I was jamming in my seat. No intermission, they just powered through a couple hours and sent us home to bed. I hope they got their rest, too! The visuals were nice and I think the vibrations from their baselines was good for…

PW: 218.6 CW: 218.8 I am an expert at being this weight.

“I determine my own destiny. No one decides my path but me.” -Shadow the Hedgehog I've unironically started quoting this in my head any time I see some social media post suggesting everyone should "give up" anything related to being healthy. A lot of people think you can't change just because they couldn't. Weight loss, an…

@Kali225 I do sometimes! I have a lot of dance games and I'm also thinking of starting yoga and/or pilates at home.
-
It's a gym day! I'm going to start upping the intensity of my warm ups. I have a non-scale victory from last week, I've started using the smith machine to lift the bar! As long as there's a spot open, I can graduate from dumbells. The bar is only 25 lbs, I thought it'd be 45. The pulleys are probably taking some of that…

PW: 218.6 CW: 218.6 Late Saturday weigh-in. I keep trying to type this as 186, I guess I am manifesting lol

Meals planned out. Gym tonight. Shout out to bagels for being a bread that has protein in it. Might get to go to a bagel shop on Sunday and I'm excited.

Going to uncomplicate my mornings by only weighing-in once a week. Seeing it go up and down 4 lbs in real time is annoying and I'm starting to zoom in on it more than I should. I'm also annoyed that I keep ruining my deficit with high-calorie desserts. I know why the scale is bobbing like that, it me. Maintenance is better…

Not-Saturday Weigh In PW: 220 CW: 218.6 I won't be at home tomorrow morning, so I'm posting my weigh-in from today! Gonna have a fun weekend at an anime convention. Lots of ambiguous calories ahead, gonna prioritize protein and water. My step count is gonna be real nice, especially since… yeah, there's DDR and other active…

Ended yesterday in a deficit, making egg roll in a bowl for dinner tonight which is allegedly 3 servings but it's so bulky that we usually have leftovers. There's a couple recipes out there for it, the one I use is from eatingbirdfood. It's like the filling of an egg roll. Also, shout out to greek yogurt. I've been putting…
-
My boyfriend has an operational PS2, so I got to play one of my old DDR games yesterday. I've decided not to pick up running again as just walking outside is more fun and I get plenty of intense cardio from video games :) I thought about intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation… I independently love rhythm games, nature walks,…

WEIGH IN PW: 218 CW: 220 I ate. So much Chinese food last night. @lauren_989 yes!! DDR! Samba de Amigo is pretty fun too, I play that on Switch!

@ashleycarole86 & @lauren989 Thanks for the welcome!! I'm Sara and I'm a recent greek yogurt enthusiast. I love video games that make you dance and my mini-goals that'll assist my weight loss for the month are: Check in at the gym more than 5 times. Find some meal prep solution so I don't feel like I'm trapped in the…

This was a wild little month that began and ended with 219. My starting weight during the holidays was 230 though, so as long as I keep away from that? A win's a win. New favorite breakfast: greek yogurt and fruit. This month taught me to look after my good gut bacteria or suffer. March is gonna be good. :) I made it to…

Signing up for a 5k today :) Reclaiming a love for exercise that got dampened sometime around 2020 for some mysterious reason I simply cannot remember
-
Always been worried, I was ignoring how I felt because there's no quick way out of it and most of my friends are also fat and get upset if I talk about weight loss... but I kept gaining. Now I'm mad. I want to lock in. I kinda want some already fit friends to throw into the mix so that I've got people whose feelings aren't…

I have built trust in myself that I can have a little treat without going crazy, like it's the last time I'll ever have access to a dessert. I had a cosmic brownie with my lunch for like 2 weeks and now I feel like I could go without it and not be sad. I actually ate the last one I had on Monday and I was like, "Oh well,…

Lose 10 lbs or more before Spring <3

Just logging calories and trying to make it to the gym at least once a week right now. I have my goal set to lose 0.5-1lb a week and plan to lower my calorie intake more when the weather is nice and leaving the house is more fun :)
-
Be sure to start walking now so you won't get sick of walking on vacation :)
-
Goal weight: Somewhere around 140 July Goal: Eat dessert once a week instead of every day. This habit change could save me 13,000 calories on its own. Started Tuesday, going great B) July 5th (Estimated bc I forgot to weigh in today): 223

The mad lads really did it. I hope it comes back one day.

Weigh In Day: 220.4 PW: 220.2 CW: 220.4 I'm gonna think about what I ate. This weeks foods-that-put-me-over review: The guava cake was worth it, 10/10 I'll make that for anyone's birthday again. No notes. The big Cheez-It crunch wrap was not all I wanted it to be. I would prefer to have a wholesome soup with some Cheez-Its…
