  • 8 pounds into my 56 pound journey and I have to say- I wasn't expecting support. In fact, I was expecting the opposite. I know others have mentioned that losing weight is as much of a mental game as it is a physical one and I *thought* I understood that. I am quickly discovering that a lot of my excuses aren't actually…
  • I love the way I look with my glasses, my face looks empty without them
  • I am sorry that you are struggling with the PPD. Have you seen a doctor about your symptoms? I know that I wouldn't have been able to do any of the things that I am doing now without going to my doctor about a med change to help with my depression and anxiety. Just know that you aren't alone, and you are welcome to add me…
  • Only been at it for real now for seven days, and today I noticed that I could keep my pace up for 17 minutes without looking at my watch and feeling like I was dying waiting for my time to stop-I was aiming for 15 minutes and hadn't even noticed that I had gone past.
  • 100% today isn't going to be the same as 100% tomorrow and it doesn't matter as long as you give it 100% every time, no matter what that 100% looks like.
  • I want to lose a full stone by the end of September and I want to increase my work out times to an hour a day. (Work outs can include just stretch or high intensity.) Today is the first day that I have achieved a one hour work out, and I want to keep it going. It helps to remind myself that the hour doesn't need to be in…
  • They are right...thats like a whole toddler you lost. Or a large bag of dog food. Go to the store and look at a 50 lb of dog food and be happy with what you have lost!!
  • My petty reasons? Because I miss being a size 3 and making my SO salivate at the thought of me wearing nothing under his work shirt. He loves me, but I do feel like a lot of our intimate time is more out of habit and because we do love eachother, rather than a real sense of desire (if that makes any sense). Also, I look…
  • I want to have an amazing change like you! You look amazing
  • My emotional eating is a struggle...I crave bread (especially my husbands homemade bread) and I eat when I am bored. Other struggles include the 2-3 PM doldrums that hit every day after staring at a screen for 8 hours already and there is still another 4 hours to go. I do get up to walk but sometimes I just need to chew on…
  • I am looking forward to finding some work clothes that are going to be cute and professional. Right now I usually just wear all black because it is slimming and because it is easy. Also, colored fabrics don't always look ok.
  • I have about 60-65 pounds to lose, and my baby weight is 11 years old this coming February :D I am having to restart because my mental health caused an overall shut down of everything but basic survival functions from June until two weeks ago. Would love to be and have accountability
  • It is August and no one has posted in a hot minute! Anyone have new unexpected things that they have found since losing some weight?
  • This is seriously the best forum ever. I love this so much.
