Well no wonder I wasn't losing any weight. I got pregnant. Sorry people but it looks like I will have to wait on those lbs and focus on fitness. See you next year and good luck.

Thank goodness he left now instead of later. I met a woman who's husband left her the day she had the baby right after giving birth. Love will come again and usually when we least expect it. Your weight is not gross or unsightly, you aren't big and stop telling yourself that. Sure your body is different but that is true…

June 13. Went 1.75 miles instead of 2 but yay that's still good. Cooked an amazing dinner, done! Fold clothes, nope. Rest for an hour, yes. Bed by 10, 10:30 which is ok. June 14 30 pushups. 40 lunges. 50 leg lifts or sit ups. Clean a room in the house. Have fun with my son.

I am new but have been changing my lifestyle for a while now. In the beginning 6 months ago I could only run 3 minutes on my treadmill, now at a 10 minute mile and getting better every day. My goals for today. Run 2 miles (30 min.) Fold laundry. Stay at 1200 calories. Make dinner. Remember to rest for 1 hour ( I am on my…

I am not new but I will share my weight loss experience. When I had my son the first month being home all I drank was V8 juice and ate apples. Maybe a piece of bread 5 times a day. Other than that I just sat on the couch and the weight just melted off. No problems with supply or anything just came off, 20 lbs after giving…

I have this problem some days when I am probably not eating enough I get super hungry. I used to cave and eat whatever but now I keep bags and bags of my favorite frozen veggie mixes in the freezer. When I get the urge I microwave an entire bag and just binge on a veggie mix instead of junk. I feel full and maybe do about…

Day 14. Doing good. Have been running 1.5 miles every other day or two still at 2% incline at varying speeds from 4.5 to 5.8. My legs are sore. My stomach is getting flatter and my back doesn't hurt anymore like it used to. ( I have a very physical job). I have done 1200 calories for 2 days now and yes I go to bed hungry…

Day 9. Did well, ate 1600 calories and walked a few miles.

Day 8. Gw 120 Cw 135.2 I am not sure what's happening but I woke up and gained 3 lbs. I ran 1.5 miles last night and just put on weight. Maybe it's because of muscle or water weight? Strange that my first week being healthy and I gain 3 lbs.

Day 6. Doing good.just dinner and running then to bed. 1400 calories today.

Day 5 done. Back to 133 but not really caring because I have ran 3 more miles doing interval training which allows me to not be so rigid in my goals and keeps me on the treadmill which is the most important part. Eating is good. Tracking was bad today but I oddly don't feel bad about it because of how much I run and push…

Day 3 done. Now 132.0 lbs. I know it's just water still but at least I am losing. Just ate small portions and walked a lot. Will do the same today. I just woke up tired today and feel like I could sleep all day. Not how I wanted to spend a Sunday but my head is just not waking up. I must have stayed up too late and used up…

Day 2 complete. Same weight and ran 2 miles with a 15 minute break in between. I may even gain weight if I keep pushing my muscles like this but for me this is more about getting in shape than losing weight. Feels good to run again. I ate all of my running calories back yesterday so I am doing good. The good thing about…

Thank you. Yes I have been eating at least 2400 calories since this post and havent gained an ounce. So this must be right. I will try 1600 for a week and see what happens.

Lol yes I would volunteer. Had my husband do it for a while. Would get all cranky and even growl a bit then laugh about how totally grummpy it made me that I couldn't have that food. I realized I was emotionally eating a lot to feel better. I am much better now.

I struggled with this all week and have decided to up my calories by 200 so I can sleep at night. Some hunger means the diet is working but feeling faint and growling hunger all night is a bit much. Also eat a lot of veggies and drink lots of water.

Feeling hungry before bed. Had a 100 calorie snack. I logged my calories today at 1100 to 1300 which is pretty good. Scale hasn't budged in 3 days so lets see tomorrow.

I am so hungry today. Ate 1400 calories and walked a little. Everything is ok. Not sure why I get so hungry sometimes and other days seem easier.

I had a bad day yesterday. Ate a small piece of cake and too much meat. I can't give up though and still hope to lose even .5 lbs a week.

That is great progress. When you get to around our hieght and weight the loss slows down. A plateau, that's why I calorie count and have calculated my bmr. This way even if the scale doesn't move I know I am losing. I am sure you are still losing or need to cut calories a little.

Lost another .4 lbs this week. Doing good. Down to 130.6 now.

I just decided why not get in shape? You feel and look better. It was time. Every healthy person does it I can too.

Made it back down to 131 finally. So here's to hitting a new goal by Sunday. Having my cup of coffee with sugar like always then it os eating nice and clean the rest of the day.

Was a good day. I did well and goin to bed a little hungry in a good way.

I am down back to 132.4 today. So hopfully I can get rid of this extra water weight by the end of the week. The time of the month messes everything up. I will just have to wait it out. I would be lucky to lose even 3 lbs this month at this rate but oh well.

Well I am up 2 lbs today but I know its not real weight and will still stick to my 1200 calories. It can feel pointless to keep going when the scale goes up I have to believe it is false and just keep myself in check.

I did well today and am going to bed a little hungry just had to let someone know. I am on week 6 or so now and doing great.

I am. I have lost 5 lbs in a month and a half doing 1200 to 1400. I am on the last 20lbs so it is slow and steady to the finish line. Usually it is only .5 lbs a week but that's fine with me. I'm not going to lie. I have slipped a few times and had to get back on the horse but it does work.

Still doing well just hanging in there.

Down to 131.0. Still doing well. Had a piece of chocolate cake last night but didnt eat dinner and it was small. Doing well and still on track.
