  • I'm thinking of going keto for a number of reasons, and I'm wondering if anyone has any resources that might tell me more about it and/or help me through the process. I know that @quiltingjaine is doing it, but I'm open to any and all who can tell me more about it (and point me in the right direction). My main reason for…
  • Round 9 for me. I REALLY wanted to shoot for ONEDERLAND this round, so I'm going to. I may not get there, but I'm going to give it all I've got. Potential issues that could slow me down: one scheduled day of basketball, my brother-in-law flaking out on me again regarding teaching me squats and deadlifts (thank you…
  • Round 8 for me (6 full rounds plus 3 days), and I'm getting smarter every day. I'm also kinder to myself, more reasonable, more forgiving, and just generally better. I think I'm going to track my calories forever, and I'm okay with that. I'm also going to continue to post here forever, too. Maybe I'll move to a maintenance…
  • @quiltingjaine - My darn little brother-in-law is a personal trainer, but he flaked on me on Sunday. I "know" proper form because he showed me (and I've seen it), I've just never done it before myself. I would go super light weight if I did it. That so being said, I'm really impatient sometimes with stuff like this. I'll…

  • You just do it! See the first post in this thread.
  • @brightresolve - What a great place to be! I can't wait until I get to my "end" goal (might just be a new beginning) and feel a little lost/confused about where to go next. This is not to minimize what you're feeling. Shifting gears is scary, especially once you get used to doing things a certain way. What I'm saying is…
  • Seriously though. The voting thing was a joke. This is an open group, and one of us is TOTALLY on maintenance. You're welcome here forever. I promise. We want to keep up with your progress. And we're proud of you! Enjoy that burger tonight!

  • I vote you can stay forever! Partially because I want to stay forever. I mean, sure, you COULD try to find a maintenance thread, but why bother? I really like the people here, too. I say you just stay.

  • @MadisonMolly2017 - I chuckled a little bit at your calorie plan regarding breakfast/lunch/dinner, only because I do exactly the opposite. I hope that I'm not sabotaging myself. I ma noke sure to eat something for breakfast, but it's almost always light. I eat a bigger meal for lunch generally, and then the balance of my…

  • Doesn't it feel ridiculous @brightresolve when this happens? Sometimes you work your @$$ off, but the scale won't budge, other times it just seems to drop for no reason. The joy is in knowing that it's coming. Stay focused, be good enough most days, and you'll eventually see the scale move. Nothing feels better than a…

  • @Sparx_81 Waiting is the tough part. Delayed gratification isn't natural for anyone, and it's the only way to survive the "getting healthy" process. If you stay at a calorie deficit, stay accountable, and keep doing all the great things you're doing, the WHOOSH™ will come. We've all felt what you're feeling, and if you're…
  • @amybkatherine This was the moment that you turned the corner. We all have them at some point, not wanting to admit when we have a bad day. Being able to report that bad day, rather than keeping in inside and letting it fester, is how you get through this. The road to health and fitness is not a straight line. Being…
