June 12 Me: 6 B: 6 Where is my reset button? Ha. But there’s this: the B wins have been in small and almost controlled amounts. I’m stopping myself in the middle of things, which I was never able to do before.

Amazing progress! You look fantastic. How long have you been working at it?

So great!!!

I ask myself his all the time. Because it is self harm, especially when there is no physical hunger and maybe discomfort happening and we know rationally that the discomfort will increase yet continue the behavior. I also ask “why do I do this?” but haven’t had any good answers, except that maybe my self esteem is low, I’m…

New too! My goals are so close, I just need to get a handle on this last thing, eating my feelings. Or at least saving calories to eat a few feelings and then stop lol.

Thanks for the welcomes @britdee88 @Llamapants86 & @KnitOrMiss :) May 31 Me 1

Bought some shorts and actually wore them out!

I’m new to this group but after scrolling through this, I think I need to join in. After a year on MFP I’ve lost all but the last 5-7 lbs of my goal; my weight is more stable; I binge much less; I’m less obsessive about food and my mindset is SO much better. But some days I feel like I’m banging my head against the wall,…

Daily reminders work for me. I like to use checklists, post-it notes, and apps in the beginning. Build on the habits that already work - add new habits into your existing routine (called “habit stacking”). Lots of my better habits took much longer than three weeks to form. So it takes commitment to working at it for a…

Those 120s are close, wtg... oh the hangover weight drop... Hope you enjoy your time! Sounds like a good plan for taking in the park.

Yes! Finding that sweet spot... I must now google keto level 1 vs. level 2.

Big milestone with that birthday! Yeah, some days I’m tapped and I have to take a scheduled workout day off. Life takes the front seat sometimes.

Thanks @madwells1. Well said. @eve70 - thanks for mentioning food notes, I am going to start using them. In all I’m feeling much better since reigning things in. I wish - no, can’t wish! - I would like it if I had more family support. If I’m not planning and cooking dinner, my husband will not settle for something like…

Hi everyone, I’m back. I don’t know what happened! I love eating mostly primal. I get some momentum going and feel great. And then I think, a little more of _______ today fits m CI/CO, I’ll be fine. But I just crave more of those non-food foods as the days progress. How many times will I have to learn this lesson? Well I’m…

I agree. Target swimsuits look good on the rack but they’re not very well made.

Jess, that’s too funny because I’ve seen your pics and I think of you as pretty lean! Oh, my thighs too... I keep believing that we can keep recomping, it’s just painstakingly slow... I think... I hope lol. You’re right, bodies are so different!

Glad you’re back!

Yay for planks. I plank alternate days. So twice so far... Favorite variations? I’m working on feet-elevated planks.

Carol, thanks for this. I'm in a good groove, but it's a groove... which implies I've been here for a while and it HAS become a little boring. And I am not really pushing myself 100%. I could list excuses (eg. I'm babying several injuries so that's my excuse to move less. But there's no excuse to not meet my deficit) I…

Thanks for this post Carol! My inner drive has been so weak. I think I’m bored. Here are my ideas to get rowing: - Today I’ll start putting our summer vacation together so there’s something to look forward to. - l need something fun in life besides working out. Maybe taking an adult ed class would help me. I just feel…
