It helps me to remind myself that my goal is to lose fat - not weight. Over time, with consistently, I am losing fat even though the scale can be up and down based on my intestinal contexts, menstrual cycle, water weight, scale fluctuation, etc.

Things here still going well. Finally have a weekend off. Trying to finish the bathroom painting and starting in my bedroom. Changed the light switch and outlets from the cream of decades past to white so it will match the white trim. Weight down in the 161’s the last three days. Hoping to confirm progress away from the…

Took my daughter to this incredible place for her birthday lunch. Did well in staying on target with my plan but surely over my 1500 cals for the day, which I am fine with fir the special occasion. And I will not eat a bag of popcorn tonight!! Then ran to Loft to get a few items for work. Fit into size 8. Eight. They were…

The above weights make it look like I have passed this plateau but I do not think this is so. I have been 162.5 to 164 for more than a month. This is the lower end and maybe the beginning of some progress but will not know for a few more days. I will not feel like I have started losing again until I am less than 162 for a…

Took my van in for service at 9am. They had advised about 2 hours. They ran into issues and ended up finishing about 2:30. I had taken my snack for the morning and was starving by 12:30. They had a Popeyes across the street I could walk to and so I googled healthy choices at Popeyes. Found several 300-400 calorie options.…

Logged yesterday and kept a 250 cal deficit. Will try to do this at least 5 days a week and see how it goes. Thanks for all the thoughts and comments. @amytriesww - Where do you usually get your recipes? I love the sound of both of those meals. I am in a routine of using emeals quick and healthy for most of my meals but…

Weight continues to maintain. I have been counting calories agin off and on (more on than off) the last few days. I am eating right in the maintenance range. So it stands to reason : ) I would like to lose 10-15 more pounds to get to a normal BMI but I am just not sure I want to cut the 250 calories per day I need to lose…

Still about 13 pounds from goal of 150 pounds and this is the first time I have maintained since I started losing about a year ago. I am feeling very happy with my current size and shape and energy level, etc…

Ran off to a new to me yoga class at the new place about 5 minutes from our new house. Was okay. Change is hard for me. Definitely will give it another go. Didn’t plan my night snack out since I ran off so fast to that class. But I was logging all my foods again today so that makes it easier. I had two snacks higher in…

Really struggling with increasing snacks at bedtime /evening snack time. Decided to try to plan my snacks at dinner each day. Then only eat the plan. Will try this and see. Today I ate only what I logged and I am in my calories goal - now to get to sleep without more snacking. First time I have really struggled since less…

Good morning team. I am a 42 y/o mom of three teen girls and foster mom to a 5 yo little girl. Today is the one year anniversary of my weight loss journey. I have always been in the overweight (but not obese) category but fairly stable and quite honestly happy with my weight. I wore size 12 and like the look of a curvy…

July in review: - Down 4.2 pounds - Closed on the sale of my prior house - Settling in more to my new house - Joined a club a few minutes from the new house with an awesome huge outdoor pool, a work out area and group (yoga) classes. Hoping this will help get my yoga classes in because my “old” studio is 30 minutes drive…

I did not get called into Jury duty this week. I close on the sale of my house tomorrow at 1pm. I can’t wait! I spent 3.5 hours in the ER with my 18 yo (she is fine) last night. While I was there my 13 yo cut her finger and thought she needed stitches (she didn’t end up needing any but it was a decent cut). It has been…
