Looking forward to getting back into the swing of things this June. 🐝Through all of this I've realized how much I rely on my routine. Outside of work I didn't realize how much time I spent outside of the house until I couldn't leave anymore! I'm an ICU nurse and they turned my unit into the Covid unit. Policies and…

@svm569 Scale/weight fluctuations are normal. Starting a new exercise routine, weighting in the middle of the day, and getting a new scale are huge factors to having changes in weight. Weight in the morning, noon, and bedtime one day and you'll see a difference. It's not weight gain- it's fluctuation. When I first started…

@shalanne I gained SO much confidence when I hired a trainer. Well worth the money- even if it's just to start.

@MyBeth1 My husband and I make "pizza-adillas" on those days. A quesadilla with mozzarella, pepperoni, and some sauce. Helps with the craving and helps with the calories. We like the "carb control" tortillas because they have a lot of fiber.

My hubby and I are doing great! We went out and splurged for Valentine's (sushi dinner we have both been craving) with no regrets. I purposely haven't been stepping on the scale and I'm proud of myself for it. Previously I was a bit obsessive and strugged with any sort of gain- even knowing that it was water weight. It…

@KeriA For breakfast my husband and I do two boiled eggs and a banana or cut up apple. Really easy to eat in the car and keeps me full for the morning.

@Aerohead21 NSV- My husband and I have started running again and it's been going great so far. We are working up to a 5K. We signed up for the bubble run in May and we are stoked!

This month has been pretty good for me so far. My husband has been making this lifestyle change with me and it's been amazing. I tried to lose weight a couple years ago and it was significantly harder. Partly because I didn't have the right mindset and life was significantly more stressful, and partly because I felt like I…

I would love to join. I'm 21, 5'4", and about 240. Down 10 pounds from where I started in August. With my lifestyle I'm struggling to stay consistent and stay motivated. :)

I want to feel comfortable in my own skin! I want to feel like I'm not being judged or looked down on because of my body. Whether it happens or not (I'm pretty sure nobody else really cares about my weight) I feel like it does. I want to live a healthier lifestyle and not have to suffer to consequences of obesity later on…

Now that's it's colder I like to sit in the Sauna before I workout just to help warm up a little bit and then usually after. My gym is pretty cold and after I sit in one I usually lose a lot of excessive water weight. When I run I usually don't feel like I sweat a whole lot until closer to the end of my run, so sitting in…

It depends. It is a good way to dilute your electrolytes if it's something you aren't used to. Personally, I drink 1-2 gallons of water a day. I drink a lot.. I feel better the more water I drink. If it were me, I would build up to drinking that much to give your kidneys the opportunity to get used to it. Your body works…

CONGRATULATIONS! That is amazing! Keep going. I believe in you. I'm sure going shopping for clothes is more fun and comfortable (and more expensive as time goes on haha!) The day you hit your goal will be an amazing day. I'm sorry that your inner circle is tired of hearing about your success :( It does make it hard when…

I can relate! Nursing school is so hard. I'm in my senior year and I graduate in May (There's a light at the end of this long tunnel!) I decided at the beginning of this year that I'm really tired of being overweight and continuing to gain weight as I go through school. I started logging daily, bought a used Fitbit online,…

Hello, I'm a CNA and also a nursing student. I understand the struggle! Why I decided to try and lose weight my senior year of nursing school I will never know, but I'm still trying to stick to it. My weeks are so variable. I work a 12 hour shift and come home exhausted. When I work, I don't worry about going to the gym…

It may be very scary, but you should be checked for diabetes. You eyes aren't the only problem that diabetes will affect. Literally everything on your body is affected by your blood sugars, and if they are elevated it will lead to serious health issues if they aren't addressed. It's much better to be safe than sorry…

"It is very aggravating to work hard all week, getting the exercise in, meticulously logging, drinking your water, then BOOM see either no loss or at worst, a GAIN...and it makes you want to cry, scream, growl, throw things...etc. Now that I understand it's "just water weight" and I do weigh daily (so I don't have to wait…
