That is the best reason indeed. I have a heart issue, so I can very much relate to that. It is very difficult to believe in yourself sometimes. I know I struggle. But we can do this! We have to.

It sounds like you have a handle on things, that is so rare for so many people I think. Moderation and direction are important. I have neither have the time. That is inspiring to hear that some people actually do find what works and stick with it. There is hope for me yet! Thanks for sharing your story, I loved to hear…

Thats cool when you can find your rhythm and do what makes you happy with no pressure. I've gone back and forth on that myself. Right now I think I'm just trying to get back to that place. But here I am and I have a plan of action, so I'll be doing what I love before ya know it! Good job man!

You sound like you have this on lock! Thats great my friend. Kids are a good reason to make things happen and so is feeling good about yourself! Great work!

Right on! I’m always here to support people!

I am an all or nothing person as well. I relate haha. Well I've learned its about the journey not the destination. So way to go for treating yourself right! That is a huge victory!

I can totally relate to this. I've struggled my whole life with self acceptance. Thanks "childhood"! I'm a work in progress and I am always seeking for better ways to cope with bad tapes. I've learned that it all starts in the mind. What we perceive is what we conceive. It is nuts what we tell ourselves every day about who…

Wow, looks like you have found your tribe! That is so cool! I’m always here to support anyone and I can always use the support as well!

I decided to go with the total meal prep plan. So far it’s working great! No guessing on what or how much I’m eating. I’m learning to eat for sustenance instead of pleasure.

My goal is to not skip a single meal prep this month. 7 days a week! Even on the holidays.....AND my birthday which is Christmas!

Whoever reads this, today is YOUR day to make it happen! I'm proud of you for trying!

God that's the best!

You are a strong willed person! That is amazing to have that kind of control. I do not have that. I am very much all or nothing, easily addicted and overly passionate. I admire that kind of power! Seriously, way to go!

My mini goal is to fit in my stupid skinny jeans ahahah..... rockstar!

Wow, I absolutely love that story! That really motivates me and reminds me that people can change, its all in the mind. I love that so much! So good!

That sounds painful! Yeah that is a good reason and I believe you can do it! Hiking is so much fun. You seriously can make that happen! Good job!

What an amazing story! You should be so damn proud of yourself for making that choice! That is super inspirational! Thank you for sharing that:)

Right on! You can do this!

I can relate to that. Family is so important and we don't get a second go around as far as I know, at least not in this life. You have some pretty strong reasons! Love it!

That a fantastic goal! And that sounds like a fun trip. Now you just need an action plan, but I'm sure you're rockin it! How cool!

As far as I can tell, it is literally only calories in vs calories out. If you aren't sure about how many calories are going in and out..........you definitely have to count them and then adjust accordingly. There is no easy fix.

I'm only on day 3 of meal prep, but I am going to lose 30lbs and tone up ASAP.... and I'm over 40.... BOOM!

Not so much plant based yet, although I'd like to go in that direction. But I am meal prepping for the whole week in advance to lose weight.

Very inspiring!! I want to lose 30lbs. I am in the right place!

Starting weight: 206.8 Goal: 175 I meal prepped for the whole week and this is day 3. So far so good! Dec. 1: 204.4

Yeah I bet its pretty common. We all seem to have reasons why we go backward. Its hard to get out of the funk sometimes to! But I've won before and its so so worth it! I know you will get there this time and stay there, you have that fire!! Way to go for making it happen!

I'm late to the party, this is day 2 for me: Start Weight:206.8 Goal Weight: 175 Ultimate Goal Weight: 175 Day 1: 206.8 Day 2: 204.8.... no idea how that happened. Both days I weighed myself multiple times.

I am on day 2 of my meal prep fitness plan. Its the first time in forever I've made an effort to work on my body and health. I have the whole week prepped out and its going great! I am so inspired to see results!
