You are doing great Eninad! I'm back. I'm in bad shape eating wise. I had been doing ok and then totally fell off the wagon in the summer. I have just over a month of maternity leave left and it would be nice to wear my normal work clothes. My baby is my worst sleeper of my kids and it is getting to me. He is starting to…

You've been doing awesome! I'm very impressed you've kept up with this! For me, the healthy lifestyle is a lot of work. Sometimes my life makes it easier but it is always a conscious effort. I'm not doing well with it this year but hopefully I will get back on track.

Body pump class today I'm also sad that my fitbit doesn't seem to be charging. I have one last thing to try and then I have to contact them. Monday it acted kind of strange but seemed ok Tuesday.

I'm trying to get back to this. I finished all the birthdays and vacation stuff this summer so now I have no excuse to be off plan. Esther - my oldest daughter is like that. In gymnastics and good for her age but can trip over her feet walking down the hall. Both my husband and I are looking to increase our life insurance…

@eninad you are doing great I'm holding steady but effort hasn't been great. These past 2 weeks my kids have been in daily swimming smack in the middle of when my gym has childcare so I haven't gone other than last weekend. I'm excited to get back to it. I also have my daughters birthday this weekend so hopefully making…

Hike looks beautiful! Yesterday was weights. I've been having trouble with my right knee (squating, lunges, step ups, walking down stairs...) I've been modifying some of those since the begining. I added in some physio exercises in addition to the modifications and it seems to be helping. Today is just a low key day of…

Vicky, I'm sorry to hear about your Dad. Hopefully you can find comfort in the good memories.

Thanks. I feel l a mess with no will power. In good news, I ate my veggies this afternoon like I was supposed to rather than the entire bag of Nibs we are using for potty training rewards According to my fitbit, I've been averaging an hour less sleep a night than I was in May so I'm going to work on that this month.

I'm now back too where I was when I started the previous challenge :( I hate I know what I need to do, I plan it out and by the end of the day I'm lost. I really hate that I make sure my kids have healthy snacks but I don't eat them myself. I need to hold myself to the same standard regarding quantity, quality and timing…

SW 180 CW 178 Goal for challenge 160 Ultimate goal 140.

You are getting so close to being below 200! Welcome to the new people :)

I'm from the July 4 challenge. I am on maternity leave until next January. I like to exercise but really struggle with emotional eating. Work is generally OK for me because I only eat what I pack for lunch. At home, I struggle with snacking all the time. Plus I feel like I'm making food all the time for my kids. I know…

I know this feeling well.

I remember a comic strip (cathy?) where she was asked if she ate when she was happy, sad, angry, or bored and she said yes. I'm part way through my 1 year mat leave. When I work, I have trouble losing due to time (work full time, hour commute each way, 2 (now 3) kids, husband gets home much later than me). Now at home, I…

I'm here too. I've been going up and down the same 5-7 lbs since February. Initially, it was stress (new baby had a NiCU stay and was followed by blood draws for a few issues for a few months). Now I am at home and all I want to do is eat. I know what I should do. I know meals I've used in the past. I know I sholdny eat…

Starting from June 8 monday June 15 Me 4 The Binge 4 Binge free (3) 1

Starting from June 8 Sunday June 14 Me 3 The Binge 4 Binge free (3) back to 0

One day :( I find the first couple days binge free are really hard and then it feels ok. Then I start to wonder why I had a problem and by days 15-20, I really struggle. In the last 5 years, I don't think I've made it over 30 days. Good luck!

For me it is eating. Both what and how much. My goal would be 80% healthy but the reality of that varies. My bigger problem is portions, healthy or not. I won't over eat carrots or anything but nuts, eggs, cheese, and seeds can easily add up if I'm not paying attention. I like exercising and I exercise regularly but it…

Yup. I tell myself the logic but I still do it :(

Starting from June 8 Friday June 12 Me 2 The Binge 3 Binge free 2 Hoping to keep this momentum

I feel the same as you.

I'm nursing my 5m old. I feel like I take a few steps forward and a few steps back. I'm fine for a few weeks and lose 3 lbs then I go off track and gain back 2. I'm frustrated because I've lost pregnancy weight before (1 was easier than 2 and 2 was way easier than now). I'm frustrated at the gym because some stuff is so…

Starting from June 8 Wednesday June 11 Me 0 The Binge 3 So far today is going much better so hopefully I don't derail at supper.... Anna, I have lots of stuff call to me. I have portion packs of stuff for kids lunches and treats for one potty training. I try to get stuff they like and I don't but some times before I know…

I'm trying this again to snap me out of bad habits. I keep gaining and losing the same 5lbs and I still have 30-40 to go.... Starting from Monday... Me 0 The Binge 2

Not sure how much weight you have to lose but I always lose in my upper body first. With my belly, I lose inches but it looks the same until I get to the top of my "healthy" weight. My belly looks the same but by measurements I know it is smaller. As I get close to my goal, it changes in appearance and stops looking so…

I'm having this problem today and never had it in the past year. Hoping it gets sorted out soon. Anything that I enter in MFP shows up in fitbit but not the other way. So irritating.

I went up to 181 after this but am now at 177 (13w pp) I started losing after I set my weightloss goals to 1 lbs/week, don't count BF but I eat back my exercise calories. I figure something in there balances out.

My kids love the childcare at the gyms so they beg me to go. They also really like our babysitter because she brings special arts and crafts that they don't get to do otherwise. Them liking what they are doing makes it easier for me to be away. Is there something special the person looking after your son could do? He is…
