I've been exercising a lot less lately too, just got bored of gym, but will restart spin classes soon. I always feel like I need some outdoor activities or company during spring and summer months.

Hi! I know there's nobody posting anymore, but I thought - if I will, maybe someone else will too! So, I have been on a vegan spring detox for the past month, and had amazing results, I have hit a new personal record cm wise in all areas of my body. Very pleased to see my skin getting tighter as well. I'm moving back to…

Hi! Looks like this chat has died. I am at my leanest cm wise, will see what the scale says in 4 weeks. :)

Hey! Life has me busy at the moment, so I will take some time off of here! See you in a couple of weeks!

It's so quiet here lately! It's day 2 of week 10 of tracking and gym for me. And 3 days back to deficit after PMS. I had 2 panic attacks this week, so my body still feels shaken, been going to gym almost every day to calm down. Measured myself yesterday, the same as before, so I'm hoping to see numbers drop a bit after…

I've had 2 deficit days now, so feel like I actually made it to the other side without binges, but just overeating. It's past midnight, but I will still say happy international women's day to you bad *kitten* ladies that are supporting, inspiring me every day on this thread! It feels like a little tribe or cheer squad :)

Hi! I'm still tracking, still going to gym, but it's PMS week, so been overeating even maintenance every single day. Not beating myself up about it, the other weeks in the month were good.

Congrats, @HGSmith0920 ! Fantastic news! My weekend has been good, however, I can feel PMS approaching, so trying to keep my emotions in gym and on paper rather than in compulsive grocery shopping

@jrbovee20 That's normal, cause initially you lose a lot of water weight. Just keep hustling and be patient! @adreadrew I like the quote 'not being where you want to be should be motivation enough'. Also, progress is addictive, just have to push through till you see some results. I have been where you are now, in the obese…

I told a friend I'd finally go out with her tonight, felt super proud about pushing myself to socialize and tick Canadian nightlife off my bucket list, but I didn't get much sleep last night and all I want is to go to gym, watch a movie and go to bed early. Ugh, I like clubbing and bars, but I get so drained by being…

I wanted to try Halo Top in US, but it was like 6 bucks there, so seemed overpriced just for ice cream.

You just have to lose that extra fat, so caloric deficit is the answer. In addition you can do planks, sit ups, etc., but the key is in fat loss, which sadly can't be from one area only.

Yes, the same for smokers, extreme sports, etc. It seems logic from the logistics of health insurance.

To do a push ups without knees on the floor. So far I can do 1 wobbly one. Incorporate burpees in my strength training. To have back muscle definition, that vertical line.

@aeloine I eat 100% back, but I track everything as slow/low intensity, even though my heart rate is in the fat burn/cardio range. Morning! Happy 1st of March! :) Isn't this year just flying by? I have one more good week till PMS, so making sure I hit a deficit every day now, in case I emotional-overeat later. Figured I…

I love folding laundry, especially when it's still warm just out of the dryer! I want pizza, so going to get it

I also have 15lbs to lose (have lost 50+), and currently on 1200kcals +exercise kcals. 1200 or 1500 depends on your activity level, your TDEE, I would calculate that.

Cardio! I do spin classes, which is like dancing on a bike. Or elliptical or running, cause I can really get into the music, do intervals - sprint or put high resistance on chorus, pick up cadence on verses, etc. Cardio seems more creative, but I like body weight and kettle bell weight training as well.

Haha, never thought about that ! I was recently blown away when I read that breakfast means breaking the fast when you're sleeping. lol Morning! I'm so impressed with myself, I've had a 5 day deficit or more, trying to drop my monthly and 3 month average, cause last months binges messed it up.

I hit my lowest hip measurement today and bought new earrings, a ton of skin and hair care and ate low kcal ice cream whilst watching the Bachelor. I've got no shame :D I always buy new clothes or things as a celebration Once I hit a new PB I will order myself Gym Shark workout gear.

Thank you! :) It's such a great feeling when the numbers shift after a long waiting! Feels like I've received a gift from myself haha @aeloine Took me a bit to calculate what's my current TDEE and maintenance too, but it's doable, and you will get past 220 and break into onederland, I'm sure! Don't get discouraged, make a…

Morning! Literally had to do a celebration dance - I've lost 1,5cm from my hips and 1cm &1,5cm from my thighs in 2 weeks! I'm at my all time best leg and hip measurements. Don't know what's up with my waist, but that number won't change a millimeter! Hope it catches up , cause there I'm 1cm away from my best. So stoked :)

Amazing work!

How come you're losing motivation ? I've been doing this for about 15 months and still have about 4-6 months till my goal weight/fat %/healthy weight. Motivation is as strong as ever, cause with every inch and pound dropped, I'm a step closer to the goal. What I find difficult is managing my lack of patience and dealing…

Talking uni..I'm literally going to gym now to delay doing course work. Haha I love learning things, but doing assignments not so much. Will do 30min elliptical and 15min cycling and a good stretch.

How come weekends are your weak ends? Maybe switch up your schedule so you do more activities?

There's a couple of us writing most days! :) @aeloine How much do you still have to lose? As long as there is some sort of scale or non scale progress, I think the numbers will catch up sooner or later. I get to step on a scale every 2-3months currently, so just taking progress pictures and measuring myself. At the end of…

This is such a sad discussion, wish I could give us all a big hug. I think being called fat really messed me up, crushed my body confidence and gave me trust issues, cause now after weight loss, I doubt every compliment or person interested in me.

@HGSmith0920 That's great news, congratulations! But how come it took you so many years?

Good afternoon! Was just told my facial features are getting more visible :) My dimples literally give me extra motivation! haha Feeling a bit weak today. I've been eating pasta and oatmeal and I think my wheat intolerance doesn't like it. Think I will skip gym today.
