I can’t believe it’s February already...one month closer to spring! 🌷 Age: 37 Height: 5’7” Weight 1/1/21: 201.4 Weight 1/29/21: 192.4 My goals for January were pretty small; I just wanted to get back in the groove of logging everything. I was successful in that, I didn’t miss a day and I stayed within my calorie allowance.…

Happy New Year 🥳 I stopped tracking my food etc at the beginning of 2020...but now I’m back at it again!

SW: 204 CW: 170.4 GW: 158 My third month in this group! I can’t believe I am so close to my goal weight. Yet, I’ve been feeling very tired of eating 1300 calories/day the past week or so. I know that I will want to continue to lose past my goal weight because it’s the upper limit of my healthy BMI and I’d rather be nearer…

I think it’s different for everyone and that it requires some self reflection. Try to figure out why you fall off the wagon. Do you still have unhealthy food around to tempt you? Is it stress? Is it that you aren’t feeling satiated? Then try to find a solution. For me, I love good food and cooking is a hobby for me. I…

First week of June down! Good job everyone! Week 1: 182.4 I’m a tad disappointed with that, I was hoping to reach my halfway mark this week. Earlier in the week I weighed myself and I was 181.2...but I’m on day 25 of my 28 day cycle so I’m starting to bloat. So I guess I just have to wait another week. I’ve been doing…

My second month with this group, yay! I have friended most everyone from May and I’m so glad. I have found that the inspiration and encouragement from this group of women has been one of the most helpful things for me. I also find it helpful to see that everyone else struggles too; I can be very hard on myself. Thank you…

Replacing the sour cream with yogurt is a great idea. What you’re describing is draining the whey from the yogurt. That’s how Greek yogurt is made (I learned that when I made yogurt in my instant Pot). I’m not sure about making the stuffing from scratch...I have considered it though. I do love homemade stuffing; I make it…

I had been thinking about making a chicken gravy that way. I do make my own cream of mushroom (so much more flavorful!). I think that’s a good idea. The butter is actually part of the stuffing (most stuffings contain butter). The veggies are boiled (except for the carrot and onion, those are added raw before baking). I’m…

I squeeze fresh lemon or lime into my water and add some Splenda...tastes like lemonade or limeade. Plus, I get lots of vitamin C.
