Woohoo I'm ready for my second round! The last one was honestly so insightful. I started and ended at the same weight but also began lifting more seriously in that time frame. I've read that it can take up to a few weeks for the initial water retention that your body uses to repair microtears in the muscle to subside. So…

I don't know if this is unpopular exactly but I don't think your motivation to lose weight should stem from hating your body.

I think HAES/body positivity/fat acceptance/etc is overall a very misunderstood movement. I would summarize the main points to be these: 1. HAES is Health at Every Size, not Healthy at Every Size. What this means is that anyone at any size is capable of making healthy food and exercise choices, even if it's just baby…

Back to where I started! Considering that I definitely went overboard during the holiday weekend, I'm not upset about this at all. And I hit the gym nearly every day for strength training and/or cardio during the last ten days, which is a big improvement for me. I'm ready for the next round! 05/23 – 173.5 05/24 – 174.0…

Completely forgot to check in the last few days which is probably for the best! Hit a bunch of cake-shaped speed bumps over the weekend but I went reallllly hard at the gym yesterday so I'm imagining that it's all fairly balanced out. 05/23 – 173.5 05/24 – 174.0 05/25 – 174.0 05/26 – 174.0 05/27 – 176.0 05/28 – 174.0 05/29…

Not bad! I thought it might take longer than a day to deal with my amusement park shenanigans but I was pretty careful yesterday. Since it's a holiday weekend I'm trying to be mindful of what and how much I'm eating, especially since I'm missing out on a gym day. Definitely no buns at the barbecue tomorrow! 05/23 – 173.5…

Do you track your fiber on MFP? You can change the default nutrients under Settings. I swapped sodium for fiber and it makes the math easier since they're all right next to each other.

HAHHAHA okay I'm surprised this isn't worse to be honest. Yesterday I went to an amusement park with some family and went buckwild with the food choices. But how am I supposed to say no to stuff like pulled pork on french fries and the best funnel cake in the state? Going to the park was wonderful and I had a great time,…

Same again! I'm still not worried though. Took my measurements yesterday and I lost an inch around my waist from two weeks ago. And I'm still eating at/under my calorie goal, even last night when I was super tempted after getting home late from an event. 05/23 – 173.5 05/24 – 174.0 05/25 – 174.0 05/26 – 174.0 05/27 05/28…

Same as yesterday. My scale measures to the half pound, so I'm thankful that I'm not able to obsess over smaller increments than that! I've eaten at/under my calorie goal for most days recently although I'm having trouble hitting my protein macro. I'll probably pick up some powder or more Quest bars soon. And I'm not…

Today I'm reminding myself not to be frantic about small increases because the whole point of this challenge is to understand that your body changes from day to day and nothing meaningful happens overnight. I made this one-pan sausage and veggie dish for dinner yesterday so I'll have a pre-planned healthy dinner all week!…

I saw the last challenge too late so I'm excited to get in on this one! I started on May 1st at 180.5 and as of today I'm 173.5. (My goal is just to get to 140 and then reassess from there.) Been meaning to pay attention to daily fluctuations so this will be the perfect way to hold myself accountable. As of yesterday I…
