Thank you,that makes sense!

peanut butter,avocado,add sauces and fats to everything you prepare. Nuts,eggs, and of course some indulgence.

I so feel you. I feel like my illness sabotages me horridly. I know exactly what Im doing wrong and how to do things right,yet I eat the wrong things and dont exercise antway,

Plant based is the way to go!

Majorly inspiring! my now body looks a lot like your "before" body.

Awesome job!

Iron,b12 and thyroid check from your doc!

Yes! I relate to this so much! Only this time I hit that 5 lb mark,and continued to gain another 10 on top of it.

hehehe,Im actually gay but the motivation could go with hoping the SAME sex will notice me. I actually just cancelled my membership as I hadnt gone in months and need to tighten my budget up to save for my sisters wedding away next year. But there is yoga studios and a studio that does TRX classes and some other class…

Yepppp

Im a total bookworm! Currently reading Spiritual Midwifery by Ina May Gaskin and In Defense of Food: An Eaters Manifesto by Michael Pollan. I love reading spirituality,brain science and parenting books mostly right now,but also love me some cheesy campy teen romance drama at tomes.

Shes a cutie :P

get up and walk straight out the door,and then around the block a few times :) Make a cup of tea instead. Pick up a hobby to fill your evenings like reading,knitting,refinishing furniture or reorganizing the closets in your home. Creep the forums on here to kill time.

I mean I dont want to become an Olympic athlete,but im doughy,I have a mummy tummy,and a muffin top and back rolls. Cardio isnt going to make any of that go away!

I LOVE food! It can be fun learning how to find balance,make some substitutions and enjoy treats. Have that plate of broccoli- so you have enough calories left to have that cheeseburger for dinner! Or make veggie burgers with the broccoli even!

Just focus on finding the things you DO like!

Distractions! Plan your calories in the am,so you know what and when you can eat during the day. Get antsy in between go for short walks,find a 10 minute youtube workout,make a cup of herbal tea. Assess if you are truly hungry,adjust your protein intake accordingly. Im no expert,Im only 3 weeks in this time. But in…

What an inspiration! I need to up my lighting game clearly.

Yummy! Thank you.

Thanks everyone! Im almost a week in now,and already getting the hang of things better! I dont drink cows milk or eat eggs,but am working to up my protein and lower my carbs (pending next grocery shop) Ive started going to bed by 10 and its making a real difference. I appreciate all the advice!

Thank you, that's a good point! The feeling hungry when I feel like I'm eating all day long anyway has been driving me crazy. You may be right about the carb heavy bit. I'll have to take a look at things more closely from now on.
