Starting Weight: 207 Ultimate goal weight: 130 R13 (my first) SW 206.8 R14 SW 203.2 R14 Goal: 202 Round 2 for me. I really like the 10 day commitment. It breaks down an otherwise impossible goal into manageable segments. Thanks for having me! 8/21 - 202.8 - after a weekend, I'll take it. Back to eating on point, no alcohol…

You might not be eating enough. Have you been weighing all your food and logging it?

@olga5454 I think you have a typo on your latest entry!

I'd like more information please!

@SezxyStef That was my original thought as well.

Oh, I'm not judging. Well, ok I guess I am. But I see your point and never really thought about it that way. Thank you.

^^^ THIS. Although I rarely actually make it to 5 months. I usually fall off somewhere in month 2. The first month is the EASIEST! All the motivation to get it done, new meals to try out, etc. Plus I love seeing the first few pounds melt off which often happens the first month. Then it slows down. The motivation is harder…

Why are you waiting?! Start TODAY! Have one less bite. Drink one more glass of water. etc...

Haha! That's so true! My horse knew what she was doing and if I couldn't spot the distance she didn't care. Hold the hell on because we are leaving!!!

Funny because I always think the first month is the easiest! You're motivated and on track .... until a bump in the road totally derails you.

Whoa! Eventing always scared the crap out of me. Good for you. At least if you crash into a jump on the jumpers course it would come down. You crash into a huge tree log it 'ain't going anywhere! Lol

What kind of competition? Jumpers were always my favorite

The good 'ol days .....

I used to ride for years .... from when I was 9 until my 20s. Was on the equestrian team at my college and lucky enough to buy a horse when I graduated. Then adult-hood set in and I had to sell her. I was always in the best shape of my life when I was riding and at the barn every day. I haven't ridden in years because I've…

HAHA! Same thing happened to me today! I even stepped on the scale 30 minutes later because I swear it was broken. But nope, got the same (AWESOME) number!

Have you thought about seeing an endocrinologist vs just seeing your GP? Do you have any other symptoms of low thyroid besides difficulty losing weight?

I got your back!

Mine is open too. But I'm a super picky eater. Like a toddler. You may not find it useful but feel free to look.

I have tried for YEARS to get my extra weight off. But I never really found the true motivation until recently. I was trying to give my son a bath and I physically could not bend over into the tub to wash him. I was disgusted with myself. How did I let it get this bad? I'm 5'1" tall and my highest weight was 209.…

I love all kinds of breads. And crackers. Basically, anything with an insane amount of carbs. However it does NOTHING for me. I know I need to reduce carbs (not to the extreme of keto) to lose weight. So I haven't been buying any kind of bread or cereal or crackers. I'm even eating burgers & hot dogs without the buns! I do…

I am! I'm very active here but mostly a forum lurker. I'd love an accountability partner! I am 38, 5'1" and currently weight 203 lbs. my goal is 130. I've tried to lose weight so many times but I am committing that this time will be different!

I actually did this today just to see what would happen. Lowest weight was 202.4 and highest was 204. No exercise today, 200 over calorie goal and I drank about 105 oz of water. The ups and downs happen. If you can't deal with the upswings, my advice is to weigh yourself less frequently.

THANK YOU!!!! this makes me feel so much better. I'm tired of people telling me I have to eat breakfast!

I want to lose 70+ lbs .... VERY motivated - unlike the million other times I've tried to lose weight, this is my last time "trying" because I will DO IT! About a month ago I was trying to give my son a bath. I am so fat I couldn't even lean over into the tub to wash him. I was disgusted with myself, so here I am. So far…

I haven't had a thyroidectomy but basically my thyroid is non existent. At one point my tsh was over 200! My doctor basically told me they had no idea how I was still alive with that level. I don't currently see an endocrinologist, but probably should. My family practice doctor is working with me to control my levels which…
