Overall Start wt: 143 Overall Goal wt: 123 June Goal: 123 May 31: 126.4 June 7: 125.2 June 14: June 21: June 28: When I originally started losing weight, my goal was 129. Then it changed to 125. Now I bumped it to 123. I am basically at an ideal weight, but really need to drop more body fat and gain muscle. I guess this is…

I have read that protein before bed can be helpful. Maybe do a spoon of peanut butter instead of the cereal? Also, drink water when you think you are hungry for a snack. Sometimes its actually thirst that you mistake as hunger.

May start wt: 128.0 May Goal wt: 124.0 Overall start wt: 143.0 Overall goal wt: 124.0 May 1: 128.0 May 8: 127.8 May 15: 127.2 May 22: 127.0 May 29: 126.0 May 31: 126.4 I had a feeling I was going to bounce back up a bit. I have done some kind of workout every day, even easy stuff on rest days. Diet could be a bit better…

I started working out for the energy, the weight loss was a bonus. But I am pushing it farther for the following reasons: 1) to stick it to some *itches in my life that treat me like they are better. I used to be so much prettier than them, then my weight gain tipped things in their favor. I want it back. 2) I miss it when…

Hey, just remember: lose it fast if you want it to be temporary. Lose it slow if you want it to last. 7.2 lbs is great! That is a huge win!

Those are some beautiful, colorful plates! Looks amazing!

Although I am not sure its accurate as I didnt eat much yesterday so its probably inflated. We will see what happens the next two days. On the…

Dont skimp those naps! Well rested is always recommended for weight management! Probably helped you out this week! ❤

I was hoping it would finally land on 126.8 but.... nope! Lol. Trying not to get discouraged by this plateau.…

WOW! Who manages to lose weight on vacation!? Great job sticking to it!

Wow great first week! Keep it up! And happy almost birthday @deepwoodslady !

Also, it was a delicious couple of days haha! Now back to staying good! 😎

Maybe I do it wrong, but I just select the quote option on my own post, remove the (quote) brackets at the beginning and ending and then I repost each weigh in. I havent found a way to edit my old posts and the app is glitchy for me so I just try to keep it simple. Edit: i think there is a time limit to edits anyways:

May start wt: 128.0 May Goal wt: 124.0 Overall start wt: 142.0 Overall goal wt: was 125.0 May 1: 128.0 May 8: May 15: May 22: May 29: I am close to goal weight overall so I am assuming its gonna be harder to maintain 1lb per week loss plus I need to build muscle. We shall see how this goes!

Good point! I am not doing the newbie modifications anymore so I thought I was "stepping up" but I didnt think about the loss of weight resistance! I probably just need to push more.

I havent been eating right before but do drink a lot of water like an hour before. With the weather warming I am wondering if my house just feels cooler since the heater isnt running? I generally dont get as "heated up" I guess.

Second round for me! I'm in! Now to contemplate a reasonable goal for the month... 🤔

Does anyone know where the May thread is? I cant find it.

I am in the same boat, just dont want to pay for a gym membership and would rather workout at home.

Made it! Not gonna lie, I was not actually thinking I could do it so this has me so happy! I really appreciate this group and am looking forward to May! Congratulations to everyone!

Drink water. I read something about how not being hydrated enough can mislead you into thinking you are hungry. Now if I get a late night hunger cue I just assume I'm thirsty and drink a big glass of water. If that doesnt work, at least you will probably have your hunger curbed by the water and eat a smaller snack.

I believe you are supposed to wait 6 weeks postpartum to heal, check with your doctor. But I like Jillian Michael's Hot Body Healthy Mommy video. Its not on youtube, but was simple and careful of any potential diastis recti and safe positions for postpartum. Denise Austin has a bunch on youtube, some are short and more…

I'm in the same boat. I am doing bodyweight training from home, i have some weights, and I'm looking for optimal strength workouts for beginners to rotate into my fitness plan.
