I am both (kinda). I decided to start on the 5th of january (a monday) with eating better and i did. Since then i have had bad days and then i just log it and start again the next day.

I am aiming somewhere between 143 and 136. i used to weigh 136 when i was 20 years old and iwas very very happy then, but i am older and my body has changed a lot. So 143 is my goal and then i will see if i am wanting and able to lose more. when i weigh 127 then i get comments that i am to thin. While according to the bmi…

@HatherM‌ your right. maintaining is sometimes a good result, especially when thing arent that great. Better accept and move on, then staying upset and letting that pull you down!

well you can always have them, just plan around them. But thats probably not what you want to hear. I must admit i dont take any because if i take one then a whole lot follow...and my boyfriend always buys the kilo bag....

okay im kinda sure my scale broke down. i was expecting some weight gaine due to my snack attacks. but this morning it said i weighed 136,1 kg and that would be a gain of 64,5 kg (142 lb) while still being able to get in the same pair of pants. so i have to go buy a new one. hopefully tomorrow i can have a accurate…

I went over double that amount, twice this week. I am trying to get to the source, is it totm or some emotion I am not letting out yet? I don't know. But to get back to your question, if I know which emotion it is I just let it go.so if I am mad I get some heavy rock music on and start to scream along, sad is also music or…

Sorry I am not creative at all

I always use fruit

I didnt sneak peak either, but i was disappointed to see i maintained this week...but hey trying to think at least i didnt gain. its not working yet, but somewhere this weekend it might (i hope

@neurex, thanks. Thank god, weigh in was yesterday. Tonight its girls night out B) and i have been banking my weekcalories. Dont want to get on the scale tomorrow to see the effect of the alcohol and food that will be consumed tonight :#

I dont know what happened, but this time around im getting nervous getting closer to the weigh in day. Never had that before. Hopefully i can avoid sneak peeking. i dont want to become someone who steps on the scale everyday and gets crazy. Pff, just two more days....

Okay, i was trying to say those slices are not cheese and are not something i crave for. I will try not be so outspoken anymore. So for everyone who felt insulted: I am sure every country has lovely cheeses and has some cheeses that arent that great. Maybe it was a case of lost in translation....and it wasnt my intention…

I never made my own, sounds nice and ofcourse opens up a world of options, like goat cheese and ofcourse herb cheese. God i got to stop thinking about cheese, im getting peckish :#

Cheddar is well not cheese.. And inderdaaf het was koud, maar we zitten boven de nul, de sneeuw is al weggesmolten en het blijft droog, dus ik ben content met dit winterseizoen!

Hi alice, im dutch also. Good luck in your journey and ofcourse the upcoming wedding!

Mmmm, i love cheese also. I avoid it during the week and save it gor specual moments (so i can also save up my calories during the week). Feeling a bit guilty for asking, but being ftom holland and still living there, what is cheese then if its not like european cheese? Is it more like the cheddar dlices we can place on a…

I can relate. Last week i had a binge also, thank god we hadnt done our groceries yet. Exercise has never helped me (except kicking something). I know it sounds easy, but i try to log the whole binge as a confrontation with myself and the effect and it seems to help me avoid it for a while. Ofcourse when something big…

Hi everyone, welcome to the group, hope everyone will succeed in their journeys! Hope to see you all in our threads and challengesm good luck!

I am afraid i live by the motto "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger". Its not really a motivator for losing weight, more a way to take life head on. My motivation is pretty basic, i want to feel better in my body (and not feeling the weak spots all the time, like my knee and back).

pff i made up for last week, back on track :D

Well I promised myself no sneak peak before weigh in day this week, but I failed. Today I was free from work and the scale seemed to call me.... Next week a new change.... @HatherM‌: good challenge. I haven't been able to do that. Does anyone else have special goals for next week?

Anyone a good idea for the week 3 challenge? Creativity is not my strong point, so j hope anyone else has a nice idea to motivate ourselfs!

Hi nicole, it depends on the phone you have. I use the website for the spreadsheet. But you can also ask someone else to add your numbers. Good luck!

Indeed i had a very very very small loss way less then i hoped ffor, so today i had a 'baaldag' (i guess a 'fed up' day is a translation that comes close to it). But now i have picked myself up again. Okay i went over my calories today, but indeed i kept on logging to confront myself with the effect of my foul mood (yes i…
