  • 5'11 here as well. Starting at 270 and hope to get under 200. I know that at 220 it gets really hard because I'm getting really comfortable with my weight. Let me add that I'm 57 years old and struggeled with weight my whole life. 180lbs would be fantastic but for now my goal is to get under 250. I gift myself a spa day…
  • I'm right there with you. Let me add that I know so much about losing weight that I think that I can " wing it". I think that I don't have to count anything bacause I'm above that. Also, calories fom foods that are from my home country ( Germany) don't count. Funny, how we can fool ourself. Recently saw a picture somebody…

  • Happy first Advent ! ( German living in the US ) This is my first challenge and I'm already amazed at all the great advice in this thread. Thank you BMcC9 and everybody else for the great insight. My goal for December is not to gain any weight. A weight loss would be a big bonus. I loose my focus easily but checking in…
  • Temperatures are dropping and my Jeans are super uncomfortable. I don't want to buy a bigger size. My mini goal is to fit comfortably in the size I was last winter.
  • Happy Friday to all ! I walk three times a week with a friend in the morning. We do about 4-5 miles through the woods. Not just for physical exercise but also for our sanity. Being out in nature helps keep the stress level low. We have been doing this for years and our bodies are used to it. Obviously we both still managed…
  • In a perfect day I pre-track all my food in the morning. I allow myself to make substitutions during the day. I think t his will work well for me and maybe it can help others. I don't have to think about what to eat as it has been already decided. I even leave 150 cal for a surprise snack or an extra helping.
