I'm not saying it might or might not be ok. I'm saying I may not reach my goal. And I DO want to get that low. I was there before. Can I ask why it seems everyone is nitpicking? Sorry to sound mean but I did not ask for advice. Everyone is different. Only I know my body. And it is not a "far future problem". It's my…

Thank you. I have 3 goals. 208 will be "obese" BMI. 173 would be healthy BMI and then my final goal. And in a perfect situation, whatever low weight I get to, then I want to start lifting heavy, and if I gain because of muscle, that's fine

Well, I was done growing, meaning height. And I don't plan on it taking years, only 18 months.

I have a small frame 5 1/2 wrist. I know how I felt at 135, I felt healthy. And even though 18 seems young to get back to, I was already an adult, done growing. My husband says how are you going to weigh as much as a high schooler??? I dont know, I guess I'll have to readjust as I go.

5'10. I know it's a low goal and I may not make it but I want to be close

Thank you everyone for the responses! We are all different, that's for sure :smile:

I am starting heavier, 255. I'm thinking I will be the 20lbs to drop a size type.

I'm 5'10", at my heaviest, 265lbs, I wore a size 20. My current weight is 254 and I wear a snug 18. I'm smaller framed but carry my weight on mid section. My goal is to be 135, size 4.

Can I ask why "no" to coconut oil if used in moderation?

Thank you everyone! Sometimes, like today, I do take my lunch. But then I use stress as an excuse to go get a burger and fries. Then I feel guilty. Stress isn't an excuse to eat crap, I have to get that through my thick skull :smile:

You made me think of something. When I was quitting smoking, I put a hair tie on my wrist. Every time I wanted to smoke, I snapped the sensitive part of my wrist. So, I can't slap myself on the hands but I can snap my wrist. I know it sounds weird, but it stopped a 16 year smoking habit.

No offense taken. It made me laugh out loud because it's so simple, yet it's not. Thank you

I just logged my meals for tomorrow, but will have to add more. I logged them so maybe I will stick with it. Thanks for the link, I will definitely look into it.

Thanks! :smiley:

I have 120lbs to lose and need to start logging every day! Feel free to add me

I know exactly what you mean. I'm doing this for myself, but also to tell everyone I told ya so! Keep up the good work!!

That's awesome! It's a great feeling isn't it?

Small, fingers overlap, wrist is 5 3/4in.

Everyone looks great!! Hopefully I can post here soon!
