Hey all, I've been away a few days managing some medical emergencies. Had a depressing few days, but the good news is I didn't use food as a crutch and I am still losing! 143 today. Now to catch up: @raleighgirl09 you asked earlier how I didn't cave to emotional eating. It's because I am trying to take to heart advice I…

@deepwoodslady I'm so sorry for whatever you're going through. I've always enjoyed your posts on this group, and I agree with what @HoopsGuy72 said- we won't give up on you! @CamandJarvis I now realize being part of this group was *key* to my original success, and not only for the obvious reason: daily accountability.…

@karlymarie57 You are so lucky to have just joined MFP and immediately ended up here because this group is amazingly supportive and can help you get all the way to maintenance. When I joined last year, I lost 30 lbs and maintained, but left amid quarantine stress... and now I'm back for a reboot. My (totally unsolicited)…

I stayed on track today! Despite our healthy dinner not working out (meat was bought from a local butcher 5 days ago and was no longer fresh). Plan B was Wendy's, but aside from the zero nutritional value, it wasn't bad calorically. I lost 30 lbs last year eating fast food several times a week, and know how to order.…

@HoopsGuy72 My family also does multi-day birthday celebrations, always centered heavily on food. Mitigating the damage is a win. Sounds like you're managing it well!

I had two link sausages- only 113…

@Katmary71 We seriously have such similar issues! I'm so sorry. I've had 8 endo surgeries and only recently discovered that nerve damage could occur as a result- finally, I know why I ended up in chronic pelvic pain *after* my first surgery. Thank you for the playlists, I'm going to try them with my daughter today!

@Katmary71 I'm so excited, I've never met anyone who has similar physical obstacles to working out but actually does it! Yes, please post some of your favorites, I'd love that! Arm cardio is really intriguing to me- I'm not sure if I could do legs. I'd have to check out the video to know. A bit more about my conditions so…

@TeresaW1020 I haven't read the Gin Stephen's book you mentioned, but I read her Delay, Don't Deny book a couple of years ago and it was a total gamechanger. I'm on a 16:8 schedule now, down from much longer fasts that weren't really doing anything for me (in terms of weight loss, anyway). Eating noon-8 is my perfect…

Hi all! I'm finally caught up on the intro posts and ready to do my own. I'm hilogirl2018, I'm 40 and I'm trying to the lose 20 pounds I already lost last year. Guess when and how I regained it? Yep, during quarantine, when I insensibly ate anything I wanted, all day long. I actually lost a total of 30 pounds last year, so…

@tiabirdie56 Happy birthday!

"Quitting won't speed it up"- YES! This is what I need to remember when I get discouraged. I also like the reminder here that weight loss is sloooow. Patience wins, always.

Thank you, everyone, for your condolences. Grateful for this lovely, supportive group.
