Have a bottle to hand - I keep mine with me (when I remember to fill it up in the morning) and I just have that throughout the day. It is hard to stay hydrated, but it helps with keeping my skin clear, and personally I feel less groggy if I’m getting enough water. Best of luck to you!

I would say slow and steady. (Personally) But be prepared to use all of your persistence and patience. Keep up the great work!

Make sure you’re eating enough to sustain the deficit but not too much to gain or maintain, work out if your goal is realistic. Try to eat little and often to stave off the cravings! It’s so much easier when you get into a routine. You can do this! Feel free to add me for some support! You have the POWER!

Needing support?! Add me

Hi! Sorry to jump on your post here but I am also struggling. I am eating in a calorie deficit every day. (Under 1,700) swimming, running, and Zumba-ing every week. I would say I have an active lifestyle, yet I am stuck in a rut. My thinking is I am at a plateau. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Any support/motivation is most welcome !!

I wouldn’t worry about the scales to much!

Feel free to add me im a swimmer - I’m on a similar mission to you! X

Also - have you had enough to drink? Sometimes we can mistake hunger for thirst. Perhaps have a drink before having a snack.

String cheese/ soya milk/ egg whites- cooked/ rice cakes

Fruit! Plus it’s nice to eat raw veggies.. or cooked, but raw saves time.

First of all, GO YOU! 6 lbs is an achievement in itself. What you described above happened to me! I moved and just stopped, had a rest but before I knew it I was back where I started. The excuses started to flood my brain 'I'm tired' 'I'll do it tomorrow' don't let it happen to you!!! It will be so worth having a plan- if…

Personally this wouldn't work for me as I like to be either completely healthy, or not healthy at all there is no point in this for me, as it would be two steps forward & one step back. It's all in the mentality. Saying that everyone is different.. right?

add me I'm new to this to! Looking to share tips and motivation with others!

YAAAAASSSS!

I'm working on making my life a bit more healthier to, by doing it slowly it should benefit you -as the transition will be easier than cutting it all out completely I reckon. Here's hoping you can stay committed! Good luck

Hi! I'm back as well, was doing great! I can use some new friends to. It's been a while since I was feeling strong & fit! Feel free to come along on the journey with me.. I'm not sure how to add anyone ? - any ideas

YES! -once you are in control of it, it won't be so much of a temptation! It's important to allow yourself a little treat here and there I reckon, just my opinion. -otherwise you're more likely to crash under the intense longing for that sweet sugary stuff... but yes.. It does get easier!!!

Not just weight reduction building muscle is important for me to - ⬆️muscle mass=⬆️calories burned

My absolute FAVE is Nutella - I just can't live without it. Everything in moderation though- I save calories for it in the evening just in case!

Ok thanks for the help! I'm already in a caloric deficit diet, which is on track
