It's good to hear you're eating more. The diet you posted was really scary. Also, you need to add some sort of fiber to your diet, but add it in slowly because you're currently not really eating any fiber and too much all at once can cause gastrointestinal issues. Fiber is super important to a healthy gut, and I think a…

I weight every morning, because I feel like it gives me a more thorough understanding of my fluctuations and overall trends. When I first started tracking I would get upset if I gained weight from day to day, but now I find it interesting.

I've been watching Fit to Fat to Fit. Full episodes are on youtube, and they have trainers gain weight and the lose it with their clients. I think it's really interesting to see everything the trainers go through when they gain the weight.

I like prepping food for Buddha bowls. I'll do a grain (quinoa, farro, brown rice, etc), prep/cook some veggies, protein (I'm vegetarian so mine are usually tofu, hard boiled eggs, tempeh, etc, but you could definitely do chicken or something). It's easy to put everything together during the week, based on what I…

I love tea! I always have a cup of earl gray with breakfast. I really like the Tazo dessert teas. I also like turmeric tea from Tea Drops. They do put a small amount of sugar in their drops, but it's still only 5 calories/drop.

I have 5 structured workouts per week, but on my "off" days I try to do something active, taking my dogs on an extra long walk, hiking, doing some deep stretching, etc. I try to listen to what my body needs.

I love Indian food, but it's super heavy on oil, butter, sugar, and carbs. You can adapt recipes by using less of these ingredients, and maybe exchanging white rice for brown rice. Also, it's important to log all of the food you eat, even if it's just a snack or a bite of food. According to the info you gave, if you're…

I love to travel internationally (in non-covid times) and I don't want to be seen as a fat American.

97, which seems way too long. I do have a lot of family members who lived into their 90s, but my mom died at 55 from cancer, so you never know.

Yellow squash from my garden, probably on the grill. I'm getting so sick of yellow squash, but more ripen every day. I'll make a sweet potato and salad to go with it.

My goal was to lose 30lbs (175 to 145). I started on January 6th, and I've been hovering between 148-150lbs for about six weeks. Until then I was losing around 1lb/week, but I had some personal things happen in my life and I switched to maintenance for a while. Now that things are settling down again, I'm refocusing on…

My weight has varied a lot from when I was 18 until now (34). When I started college at 18 I was around 150lbs (5'8"). When I was 20 I went through a period of depression which involved anorexia and dropped from 150lb to 124lb over 3 months before getting help. Then I gained weight back and evened out again around 145lbs.…

I use an equal amount of liquid to oats. I do 1/2 cup oats, 1/2 cup flaxseed milk, 1 tsp chia seeds, and 1 tsp maple syrup. I add 1/2 cup blueberries in the morning, and it's 260 calories, 44g carbs, 6g fat, and 11g protein.

It definitely is. This is my weight since I started in January. The good news is I no longer get upset when I see the scale bounce around, since I know I'm on a downward trend!
-
What types of food are you eating? If you are looking to lose weight then it sounds like you have been over-eating in the past to gain the weight to begin with, so what were you eating then? You don't have a ton of weight to lose to be in the healthy range, so you should probably have your goal set to 0.5lb/wk. ETA: I just…

Nice! Slow and steady is the way to go!

Thanks! Weighing in and logging every day has really helped me to not be overly concerned about a few lbs of weight gain. I know the overall trend is down and I'm sure I'll be back down again in a couple of days! And I don't regret my salty meal!

I'm feeling pretty good this morning. I officially hit 20 lbs lost this morning from when I started in January (3lbs for this challenge). I feel so much better than I did at the beginning of the year, and I can feel my fitness increasing, too. I did a 45 minute run yesterday which I could never have done five months ago.…
