As of today, My non scale victory is that I went from a size 9-10 pants to a 7! My BMI is 1.8 from being in the "normal range" and my body fat is in the "acceptable" range (higher end)

I was diagnosed with Tachycardia a year or two ago. Cutting back on caffeine does help. I've found the more weight I lose and the healthier I eat, the lower my resting heart rate is (it was 110 and now that I've lost 23 lbs it's down to mid 90s). I was put on a low dose beta blocker as well but ran out of that months ago.…

My manager: "You don't need to lose any more weight" My mom: "Oh yeah, I noticed you lost some weight" My best friend: "GIRL YOU ARE CRUSHING IT!!"

My mini goal is to get to 140. Once I get there I'm going to reward myself with buying new pants (need new ones anyway but I don't want to buy them now as I'm consistantly losing weight). Currently at 144.4. When I hit my main goal (120), I'm gonna buy myself a new wardrobe (gotta keep my shirts though. I love baggy t…

Same!! I'll eat anything and everything! My mood doesn't get TOO terrible but the cravings and bloating are the worst

I'm like 99% sure all women bloat but I didn't realize the difference until I started to try to lose weight again. The cravings are awful!! I usually crave chocolate or chips (which I will eat the whole damn thing)

I was just really amazed at the difference the bloating makes honestly. Like I knew it was a thing but never really paid too much attention until I started trying to lose weight again

My new birthcontrol makes me have one every month but before it was 3-6 months between. I can't take midol anymore, my body doesn't like it.

I just need to go grocery shopping by myself. My neighbor and I usually go together but she's impatient so I just avoid the stuff I know has gluten in it (bread, crackers, etc)

I'm going to have to start meal planning just so I can make sure to get the calories. Trying to figure it out the day of isn't getting me the calories I need. I believe I read that brown rice is GF.

Yes, it does contain milk however the serving size of them only make me slightly uncomfortable so I eat it only when I'm at home (and not everyday) and able to relax through it.

20 lbs is no small feat! Keep up the good work!!

I love bananas! I usually have one when I get to work. Chocolate is my downfall XD. Oh I've definitely had enough to drink the past few days XD.

Most of the time I definitely forget to log the oils that I do cook with. Thank you, I will keep better track of that. I do log everything else though

I got the slim fast to get my chocolate fix without hurting myself since I have always had issues with over eating lol. I haven't been able to find gluten free bread as of yet. With dairy, I need lactose free options (which I have found with milk). I just got a blender to make shakes and have a lot of fruit in my fridge…

I'm not vegetarian. The only meat I actually really like is turkey and chicken but most days I don't have those so I go without. I should def invest in a crock pot though XD

Yes I figured out how. What I log isn't necessarily what I have for that specific meal (AKA I don't eat breakfast because it makes me feel sick) but I don't want the app to yell at me for skipping meals XD I've been really slacking on the logging the last couple days though

Oil as in you cook with it? I don't like coconut or avacado so I'm trying to work with what I have lol.

I do eat nuts most days because they're a really good snack but I don't like avacado so I don't eat that. I just got some fruit and protein powder to make shakes too. Hoping that will help

How do I do that?

I looked in the mirror this morning and realized that I'm starting to like how my body looks. I have a little way to go but it's definitely looking better to me!

From Christmas 2018. Don't have a recent selfie on my computer XD

I want to join! MFP USER NAME: AngelofMusic1028 YOUR CHOSEN WEIGH-IN DAY: Monday YOUR CURRENT WEIGHT: 148.2

Thank you for the concern. We're taking it one day at a time. She just had surgery the other day to remove a tumor that was protruding from her arm. It's been tough. I haven't even hugged her in months out of fear of possibly giving her something that could kill her (especially now that I'm back to work)

I ALWAYS wear a mask around other people. I will not risk giving my mom any kind of sickness. She has lung, breast and bone cancer on top of COPD plus had radiation treatments. That reason is why I get so frustrated about people complaining they need to wear a mask. I don't care if I get sick. I care if she gets sick!

10 stone is 140LBS (had to look it up honestly) That's such an amazing loss!!

I don't eat breakfast. If I eat anything after I wake up to about 3 hours after, I feel sick to my stomach no matter how light the meal may be.

I actually don't really know how to be kind to myself lol. The best thing I've done so far is noticed little changes in my body (not as much pain from my knee injury, pants starting to get looser, etc) but those little changes do make me very happy. Means that I'm headed in the right direction and as a perfectionist, makes…

Either getting into the 130s or just needing to buy new pants (almost to the pants one. I don't wear jeans so I'd love to get into a small legging/yoga pants/workout pants. Currently at a Medium) Either one would be just fine with me
