Merry Christmas

trying to stay under control for eating in the next 2 days but not denying myself something I really want

I understand what you all are saying, love getting exhausted and sore from the gym, cant wait until the doctor tells me I can lift again, had to have shoulder surgery and a long rehab process/

Snow storm didn't keep me from gym and workout

My sister in law was listing out how many desserts she was getting/baking for Thanksgiving and I told her it was too much for 8 people and asked her to reduce a few things as she always wants to force it home with us and she is also trying to lose weight and she needs to do it for her health.

enjoy it, you will have more...I love feeling sore after workouts

I really miss my heavy lifting as I had a rotator cuff surgery 11 weeks ago and cant do much with weights and notice my body has changed so much and I cant wait to get back to it again....I am getting very bored with elliptical and bike and a few leg machines I am allowed to do. I tell all the women I meet they need to add…

I thought this is a thread where you could come and vent and now it has turned into a conversation on what is right or wrong to say to someone, can we start venting instead of arguing 1. I hate having to plan my calories to go out to eat 2. I hate having a panic attack when plans change and have to quickly adapt to other…

woke up did a weigh in and scale did not budge, initially I was upset but got dressed, went to Physical Therapy and then to gym. NSV is I didn't give up or eat poorly. I know my body is sore and retaining water and a wooosh should happen soon, had to remind myself this a a marathon not a sprint.

Just returning to active logging after an injury and shoulder surgery 8 weeks ago. Got permission form MD to begin exercise but restricted to recumbent bike or elliptical and prior I was doing cross fit and lifting heavy weights. I went a bit off track with eating while in recovery while trying to make things easier for my…

To get back on track, Had to have shoulder surgery 8 weeks ago and just was given permission from MD to do recumbent bike or elliptical , I was doing cross fit 4 days a week before surgery . Also while recovering I gained back from inactivity and poor eating. My mini goal is to get to gym at least 4 days a week and first…

I have really found 2 reactions from people that bother me one was like this woman who thinks I am losing weight just to look good, what they don't realize is it is only a benefit to getting healthy and a lot of hard work. The other is the person who only wants to comment on my weight no matter how often I see them. Part…

It has although I am still very motivated and just enjoying being healthy

Finding out that some friends really cant handle your weight loss and how bitchy women can be. Just saw someone who I haven't seen since last October and after saying hello she commented " I see you kept your weight off this winter" I wanted to say actually I have lost 14 pound since then .Cant wait until my weight loss is…

Best NSV for me is I have had a few rough weeks with keeping on plan due to travel and family events, but I realized it will pass and just need to get back to healthy eating. It is amazing how different I feel when not eating as healthy as I am used to. Not even going to step on scale until I am feeling like my body is…

To get below 150, I have had a few rough weeks but it will pass as many events are now gone.

I had someone tell me last weekend that I look so much younger, Very nice feeling.

2 pounds to get to my original goal , but now have set a lower goal

New PR on a box jump to 30 inches

Don't rely on scale only, best thing I did was have monthly measurements so even when scale not moving I do notice a difference in measurements.

Was able to back squat 185 pounds tonight, improved PR by 20 pounds

I have gotten many comments, a few that are interesting was from my best friend stating "don't lose too much" Now I do believe this is because she was the skinny friend and now that has changed as I am much more fit than I have been since we became friends, So I think it comes from my changes makes them look at themselves…

Not sure all that is true as I was 50 when I started and as long as I stuck to deficit eating and exercise I continue to lose weight and now readjusted goals as I am close to original loss I thought I wanted and now want more. I think society has gotten so used to being sedentary and eating such large meals we need to…

3 pounds to get to 150 which I thought was my original long term goal, but have changed that now that I am this close

Last night went out to eat with my husband and waitress brought bread to table and said to me here is bread but you probably wont eat much as you are in great shape ........First time a random person made a comment about how good shape I am in and I didnt tell her I have lost 65 pounds in last 1.5 years......trying to just…

This is how I have been feeling lately, I am 51 and in better shape than the past 25 years and love seeing muscles and fitting into smaller clothes and makes me want to re adjust my goals good luck with your journey

That is an amazing feeling, I have had the same thing happen and all the summer shirts I bought last summer look too big so I am actually buying womens medium tops....never thought I would be in a medium

had to clean out my tank tops and t shirts I bought last year as the larges just look too big now and will be looking for mediums.....never thought I would be in a medium top

That once I got within 5 pounds of what I thought was going to be my final goal weight I would re *kitten* and adjust it to 5 more pounds less than original weight and still am not sure that will be my final goal.

Had a day of he hungry horrors and I gave in a bit and snacked more, but NSV is that I am not worried as I know I have these days once in a while and then get back on track
