Thank you so much! Very insightful.

Thank you. I have lost 8 pounds in the 4 weeks. You are right about my cycle playing a part, I notice this during certain points. I also agree I am probably over exercising for my fitness level and maybe boredom too.I’ve just been reading your comments on threads similar to mine and I’ll take your advice of making changes…

Thanks, I love oatmeal so will def try it out!

I think you are right most of it is my mind- perceptions. This post has given me a new leash of motivation. See attached pictures of my starting weight approx 18st 4 wearing the blue/stripped dress, my lowest 10st 4 wearing the skirt and mustard top and at my current weight wearing my exercise stuff with the muscles I hate…

I lost the bulk of my 100lbs in 2015 before I knew about happy scale :). Started happy scale to track maintenance. but I stayed pretty much at 1200 to loose the 100lbs! Wonder whether the excess fat stores then also helped with not feeling too hungry? Anyways My tracking is currently sloppy which going forward I have to…

Yeah over the last few days I’ve started logging sauces again because I’m at my wits end with going around in circles. You’re so close to goal, well done. I’ve moved my own goal higher because I’ve felt I cant attain it with all this going around in circles. I’m glad I asked for help on here because I now feel so much more…

I’ve thought of intentionally eating more protein and fat because at the moment I don’t pay any attention to the composition of my meals. If I skip breakfast or stay too long between meals I find I eat more at night( i work some nightshifts). I think I’ll commit to what your wife is doing by having specific low cal days…

I’m 5’4 and approx 158lbs

I don’t eat 2000 consistently but Sometimes it’s slightly more or less by 100-200 . But what I meant was staying below 2000 is a struggle. I happily ate 1200 gross for a year without the hunger pangs I feel now. Shall I open my diary and then post my daily weights from happy scale? If you could please have a look for me…

I suppose I will have to be vigilant again with everything! Maybe the untracked oil, sauces etc are adding up, thanks for your help

Thank you, I didn’t think of that. I ate 1200 consistently during weight loss phase and I never ate back exercise calories - lost the 100lbs in about 12-15 months.

I am 5’4 and weigh 11st4lbs, I have lots of muscles on my triceps/biceps and thighs/calves which I don’t appreciate( makes me feel less feminine) but saying that I don’t care about other women who look like I do. I also want to lose some of this muscle bulk, I look like I’m flexing when I do simple things with my arms.
