Just turned 45 and I have to say - hormones are changing the rules on me for weight maintenance - gained 15 over the past year or so without really realizing or paying attention. Setting my goal this year to be back where I was and get out of the overweight BMI category. But I can't go as "hard" as I used to with exercise,…

Adjusting my goal weight to something I can realistically hit. I am okay with that, I would rather be halfway to goal than not at all!

Urgh!!! I need…

Holy crow Woman! This isn't just a story of you conquering weight, this is about so much more. I am so sorry so many docs let you down - unfortunately some are not equipped to help with nutrition and just medicate. I hope when you read this back you see that there were so many underlying emotional issues and the fat was…

Sorry about your Mother. My Mom passed away 4 months ago and knocked me right off the fitness wagon...I think it's great you are supporting your own health through a sad time.

Just starting - not doing the full program this time, just twice a week alternating with Cize

Wow! That takes so much strength and commitment, you are awesome!

Hi Guys hope it's okay if I join late - I was on MFP a few years ago and now that I'm back the app is all different and I feel like a total newb lol! I keep yo-yoing ugh!

You look fantastic! WTG on consistency!!!!

Hi, My understanding is that the formulas they use for calorie levels in the p90x nutrition plan are for weight maintenance, so you would need to subtract 500-1000 for a calorie deficit. If you want to maintain your scale weight, but trade fat for muscle, then eat what they recommend.
-
Woo Hoo! Nice job finishing the program. I can see such a difference, you are much leaner more toned, your waist/abs I would kill for :-) enjoy CLX!
-
Oooh that bread looks good! I won't make it because I know I couldn't control myself around it lol. But it's a good option if you have a wicked craving! Back on day 3 of attack - feeling fantastic, down 2 lbs already.

My post cycle wrap up: I don't see this cycle as a failure, oh no not at all, because what it did was get me mentally back into a place where I am willing to work hard and sacrifice again. After months of zero motivation, I feel like I am back in the game. See you in the funny papers! 3/02- 156.6 - I must point out I am…

Oh great luck to you on p90x! I have a tried a few of the workouts and it is no joke!! No way you can do that on 17dd, you should follow their guidelines on nutrition. There is a good accountability group on here. I have also enjoyed the one on one, I think we have helped kickstart eachother a bit, so thank you! Dukan diet…

Guess what I am drinking right now?:devil:

Well, it's a fact, I can't lose weight while eating whole grains and beans. I feel great, my skin glows, digestion is good, but weight loss? Nope! Yesterday I ate a quinoa corn muffin and some chickpea tabbouleh salad. Boom gained 1.5 lbs. I was counting calories too, i didnt go over 1800 gross, netted 1300 with all the…

I am glad you are still around, don't give up!!! Are you stuck because of eating, or is the scale just being a $&@$?

Calorie counting is helping! 3/02- 156.6 - I must point out I am super poofy from pizza last night! 3/03- 153.4 3/04- 153.4 - yah, that would be those two mini chocolate bars:sad: 3/05- 151.4 stuck with the plan today yay! 3/06- 149.8 - anything is possible!!!! 3/07- 152.4 :noway: 3/08-150.0 3/09- 153.2 3/10-155!!!…

I love your honesty :-) And totally understand. After years of doing great with healthy eating and exercise I recently experienced my own inner rebellion, I just couldn't find motivation to continue and quickly gained weight back. I ate chocolate, drank tons of wine, and actually enjoyed it! but now i am unhappy with my…

You look fantastic!!! I love your comment about how much harder it is after having a family. You inspired me this morning, thank you!

I feel like I finally have my head wrapped around moderation, for today anyway. Yesterday was a good eating day. The scale did not reward me but that's okay TOM is coming any day. I am counting calories as well. Hope you are doing good? 3/02- 156.6 - I must point out I am super poofy from pizza last night! 3/03- 153.4…

Keep up the good work, eh?!

Yes!!! Healthy and beautiful inside equals healthy and beautiful outside! Congrats on finding yourself again :-)

You look fantastic! Thanks for helping me believe!!!!

Yah it's really easy to undereat if you are not careful, or just feel foggy from low carbs. Giving myself some tough love. I clearly have a choice- I need to get a little uncomfortable if I am going to make a change. It would be so easy if I could just say I was happy at this weight, but I am not. So I need to fight a…

So much for my sane place lol!!! It's not like I have been pigging out, I swear! Saturday was a busy day, stressful and I let myself have some wine again. Sunday was a very belated birthday cake and brunch. Sigh....I don't know. I wish I could face self deprivation right now but psychologically I just can't. I need to find…
