Hi there everyone. The struggle is real! Is anyone interested in getting this discussion going again? I am looking to check in daily or a few times a week with people who get it! If anyone is interested in setting some goals and supporting each other while meeting them let me know. I am 47 and am peri-menopausal (no period…

I really need to stick with it too! Those are great losses! It takes me a month to lose 3 lbs lol. Water is a big help for sure. I hate working out, but like walking. We had a very rainy season so I was pretty inactive the last couple months.

This is perfect! Just the challenge I am looking for. May 1 SW:176 GW: 145 May 8: May 15: May 22: May 29:

I was at a standstill then had a gain. It is so frustrating. I took a break and now I am trying to eat low carb.

Hi there! I am here. I took a break from tracking and posting. I gained 4 pounds after starting this challenge. I have been doing more low carb than calorie counting and have got 3 of those back off this week. I am still interested in sticking to this challenge though :)

I am really struggling. I am up 4.

I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in 2011. I take cytomel (t3) and synthroid. I am have a hard time losing and keeping it off. Fatigue is a big issue for me as is water retention. I have tried many different approaches nutritionally and am frustrated! I am starting peri-menopause now and it feels more challenging to…

I am doing ok with tracking food. Need to get moving more.

I had no weight change this week. I had a couple good days of walking but not likely enough. Also having some whacky hormones this week. I think next week will be a good loss.

At the top of this feed it is under "announcements".

I am only weighing once a week because I fluctuate this much. It is disturbing :)

Sounds yummy. I am having tofu and spinach with tika masala sauce and basmati rice. I am not a vegetarian but crave tofu sometimes. I will have leftovers tomorrow too :)

Gaining after a loss can be discouraging, but you are still at a loss! I like that your wedding anniversary is this goal date. I will for sure be tracking and using my food diary. I have my hormones against me right now. I am hoping some exercise may help me balance.

I have 30-35 to lose. Let's do this!

21 pounds is a great challenge goal! I am excited.

Me too. This is such a great way to start. Think of how much change can happen in 21 weeks!

Hi there, I just joined MFP today and am looking for friends who have similar goals are active here. I have about 30 lbs I would like to lose.

Have you ever had your thyroid antibodies tested? I have Hashimotos thyroidosis and my fatigue can be overwhelming sometimes even though my thyroid labs are in normal ranges. It can be really frustrating. My doctor did have me do a sleep study for apnea, but the machine didn't record the data, I need to do it again. It is…

I am in the same boat. What are your goals?

I am just starting today. So far so good :)
