I'm trying to find the right eating window that works for me. It seems the best time for me to stop eating is around 2. That way I can exercise in the afternoon and not be full. Im trying to close the gap in the morning. It's tricky though because the early morning is when I am most hungry. I can hold out till about 9 to…

Some of these photos look positively gourmet! Mine, not so much. Here's my mini meal from this evening. I like having small portions more often. I was quite proud of this one. 😀

Darn it, I thought I hit upon a key to weight loss! Something else I wonder about eating large meals, say as you would if you were eating within a small time window. If I'm eating more than I need at that moment, doesn't the extra get stored as fat? Im guessing that the body doesn't work that way, but I associate being…

You say finally...is that because you've been at it for so long and it's finally coming off, or because you're finally restricting your calories?

I think that might be key... not every day has to be the same. Switching it up might have unusual advantages.

So if I use the entries with the green check and I stay within my limits or a little under, I should be good. Thank you all! I feel a little less stressed about it now.

Im so glad to read this post. I am happy to switch it up on different days. I wasn't being successful eating every 4 or 5 hours and would often eat all of my calories by noon and then be sad the rest of the day, because I couldn't eat. But, inevitably, I would go over my limit a couple of hundred calories so I was…

Wow! Amazing success! That's some hard work you did! Congratulations! You look beautiful. I hope you feel that, too! I wanna be there!

Totally needed to hear this! Thank you!

I think my inner brat and your bad influence have a lot in common! This was a great post. Thank you!

Very inspiring. I love to hear from real people who have figured out their own way to overcome their own hurdles. Thank you for sharing your story!

Its good tp keep your spouse on their toes! New life into your marriage. A good thing!

Ok so 23 days in... I'm having to reboot. As usual I started off full of resolve and full of myself and how much better I felt. Im not sure how or why but that never lasts. A little slip here, an extra bite there, a full on face fall one day, it all adds up and I'm pretty much maintaining rather than losing. Damn! Time to…

You are going to have to disappoint them. But I'm sure every one of them will move on quickly. Don't make a big exit. Just be kind about it. Make it very clear that you are not interested or they will get mixed messages.

Coming to terms with our position in life... yes, this is definitely a time of reflection and I think trial and error is all a part of adjusting and adapting to this new reality. Many people have come to the realization that something needs to be done about gaining because this situation is lasting longer than anticipated.…

I hear you, sister! It sounds like you are on a slippery slope and you're afraid of losing it completely. This is not an easy time and a lot has happened to throw off our routines and eating habits. I would say first to allow a little grace as you adjust. The more you panic, trying to lose weight in a drastic way, the…

So did I!

Could it just be that it is Mother's Day and you flew off the handle? How long have you been on a diet? Do you regularly cheat? It is all a learning process.

Is it too late to exercise? I could get up and move. Been stuck in front of the computer all day. Im fried but restless.

Wow, that's a huge discrepancy! Oh crap!
