Fitnotes is my personal preference.

Awesome, congrats!

I usually menu plan dinners for the week so this is just taking it one step further. So far so good.
-
Thank you. I've been pre-logging this week and it's been helping.

I did not meet my weight loss goal. I did lose about 1.5 pounds over the month of July and I guess that's just going to have to be ok. I'm going to take it as a win considering in June I was on a weight gain track. My goal is still to drop about 5 more pounds bringing me to 120lbs and then I want to maintain from there.…

Mine is in the 50-60's and in the 40's when I'm sleeping. Before I adopted a fit and healthy lifestyle my resting HR was in the 80's.

Another vote for a physical therapist. I'm currently seeing one for my back and there are quite a few exercises I'm not supposed to do right now.
-
Sometimes I would stress over my homemade meals and trying to accurately log them as well. I believe that people can achieve their nutrition goals with mindfulness, it just takes practice and persistence. I would much rather be able to mindfully eat then to count all the calories.
-
I respect your opinion but we will have to agree to disagree. When I lost weight over three years ago I did it mostly with portion control and then I started calorie counting and would often restrict myself too much. I'm not missing the point it was a mental thing that I couldn't get out of. I drink most of my coffee black…

Yes, thank you. I think the small sweet needs to be reevaluated. Something with a sugar substitute could work. I'm trying to work on being mindful of my portions but I'm definitely not perfect. I do weigh my food especially if it something calorie dense like peanut butter. But I don't weigh vegetables. I love baking so…
-
Sometimes with logging I go overboard and then restrict too much. I'm trying to avoid it if I can but I'll go there if I need to.
-
Sounds interesting. I hope you post your workouts, I'd love to see how they are structured.
-
What program are you going to do?
-
My weight hasn't budged yet. But at least it didn't go up. I'm going to move to twice a week weigh ins. I'm going to keep eating the way I have been for this next week and if my weight still hasn't dropped then I will start a calorie count. Weight checkpoints: 7/1: 126.4 lbs 7/8: 126.4 lbs 7/15: 7/22: 7/29: *Goal is to…

This is a great place to start.
-
Laundry is the worst and never seems to be caught up, ugh.
-
I feel you, I have recurring back issues. I went to an identified orthopedic doctor last week and started physical therapy this week. Hopefully it will help. I hope your back feels better soon.
-
I feel like I've been all over the place for the last year! I hope you give yourself some love and know that it's ok to not know exactly where to go next. Just keep moving!
-
You gotta with what you have, good luck with it!
-
Do you have a bath tub? That would be a good transition from the couch to the floor.
-
I don't think continuing to cut weight will help you right now. You can try a recomp or a bulk, up to you. I'm more a fan of recomp because gaining weight is hard for me mentally.
-
Are you following the push up progressions? You can start at an incline to make them easier and to ensure your are using correct form.
-
I love Reddit's bodyweightfitness subreddit and their recommended routine. It's very balanced and you will definitely gain strength. I find most of the people that part on the subreddit to be supportive and helpful as well.

I fractured my foot in April and focused on upper body workouts that I could do while seated. I also did lower body pilates movements that had me on the ground so I didn't bear weight on my foot, I got some booty bands to provide some resistance with these moves.
-
I try to have a 5 pound range that allows for normal weight fluctuations.
-
I love salmon patties. Bonus that they are protein loaded.
-
I like to make a Kodiak pancake with an egg mixed in. Omelettes. Cottage cheese and fruit. I also make oatmeal with a scoop of protein powder mixed in.
-
Ummm, it's taco Thursday over here.
-
I'm in for a weekly weigh in. July goal is to drop 5 pounds. Overall goal is to get back to my old maintainence range of 115-118lbs. 7/1: 126.4lbs

Mine was never high but regular exercise and losing a few pounds did drop my cholesterol numbers. My husband has high cholesterol no matter what, even with weight loss. However it is lower after losing weight but still considered high.
