  • @aalley5 and GRACIEC6 thanks so much! OK I've asked to join the team, it says approval pending so will wait and check back. I appreciate the help! :)
  • @GRACIEC6 - I'm so sorry, I'm sure it's something I'm doing wrong but I see the green checkmark in my post above, but when I try to click on the discussion link it goes to an error page that says "you don't have permission to do that." But also in my profile it doesn't show that I have any friends (so lonely, ha ha) so…

  • Hello! I'm Jenny, 59 years old & after maintaining my goal window for about 6 months I've let vacation, travel & stress drag me backward.

  • Good Morning! I'm Jenny, 59 years old and 5'6". I reached my goal of 55 pounds lost back in June, but my vacation in August, other travel and a new very stressful job has sent my weight creeping above my goal weight of 175 - I actually vowed to keep my maintenance window between 168-173 and never go above 175 again, and I…

  • Hello! I'm Jenny, 59 years old & 5'6". I recently lost 55 pounds I've been struggling with since 2020 and have been maintaining for about 6 months...after vacation and a continued downward slide toward the abyss I want to nip this weight gain in the bud before I lose the maintenance mindset! So would love some short-term…
  • Hi all! I'm new to maintenance and would love to keep accountable. Name: Jenny Age: 59 Height: 5'6" Total weight lost: 60 pounds Time it took to lose: 9 months How long in maintenance: 3 months (a maintenance newborn!) I've struggled with my weight all my life -gaining and losing and gaining it back - and was at my highest…
  • Day 52 - 05/31: 167.8 - Still managing to get back on track on the weekdays while enjoying my weekends... I still can't believe I'm finally making this work. I ordered shorts from Old Navy - which admittedly has some vanity sizing - but my lowest sized shorts from them that I haven't worn in years were a size 14 and were…
  • Day 36 - 05/15: 168.0 - It's been diabolically stressful in my life the last week - my computer up and died out of nowhere, so had to scramble to get a replacement so I could work - which meant working the whole weekend basically between setting up the new computer and making up the time I lost on Friday. I haven't been…

  • Day 27-05/06:DNW - I had such a fun weekend, it’s so hard to start back up on Monday! But start back up I will. I’m feeling the need to lower my cholesterol after recent bloodwork, and realized that my “faux risotto” I’ve been obsessed with for the past 3 months may be the culprit, since I add a fair amount of pecorino…
  • Back for Round 3 for me! Hi, I’m Jenny – 59 years old, 5’6”, and reached my goal of 175 pounds during the last challenge. I’d like to give myself a little buffer so that even if I have a little gain on vacation I won’t go above 175 ever again! So am looking to whittle down another 5-8 pounds. ENDING WEIGHT FROM LAST…
  • I love this!! It moves us from feeling like helpless victims to the heroes of our own stories. My work is to keep making sure I get RIGHT BACK ON TRACK when I have a lapse, since that has been my #1 source of failure over the course of my lifetime. My work is fitting in time to work out, even if it's only 10 minutes. My…

  • Day 08-04/17: 171.2 – Started a new job on Monday so have been a little stressed, but I’m feeling more settled now so was able to do a longer workout & stretch today which felt AMAZING. I love the alternating cardio/strength workouts, they are my absolute favorite! I have settled on a pair of shoes for the wedding we’re…
  • @deepwoodslady - I am so sorry for what you're going through. I had a lumpectomy 10 years ago and still live in fear with every mammogram, so I can imagine how stressful this must be for you. Take care of your mental health and your stress as best you can, that's the most important thing right now. Sending {{{HUGS}}}} and…

  • Personally, IF has been working really well for me, with a similar eating window. I also do a version of "calorie cycling" which I feel like has helped me a lot - it lets me indulge my cravings a couple days a week and still maintain. Mon-Fri I do avoid anything with flour (unless I really, really want it ha ha!) Sometimes…

  • ENDING WEIGHT FROM LAST CHALLENGE: 173.2 Day 01-04/10: 172.6 - Nice to see a drop already! I’ve been feeling a little hungrier than usual the past couple of days so I feel like my body is trying to nudge me back up. I ain’t goin’, so give it up bod! I am in charge!! Have been diligent with workouts the past few days too,…
  • OH wow, that's a gut reno for sure!!! So exciting (and stressful I'm guessing!!)
