PW: 182.6 lbs CW: 183.4 lbs My first time in a bit not being in the green, however, my TOM started for me on Wednesday, so I’m hoping this increase is due to that.

Username: wishfuljune PW: 184.8 lbs CW: 182.6 lbs This is quite a surprise! With the absolute bitter cold we’ve had this week, I did not work out 🫣 because my gym equipment is in our sunroom and I wanted to stay warm for as long as I could every day. I do have my spin class this morning, which will be a lot of fun. I stuck…

I overeat mostly in social settings for a variety of reasons: - One reason is because other people, my friends and family that I love, are eating and enjoying food around me and they offer me some. In the past, I would feel guilty by telling someone no if they offered me food or a drink. I have gotten better at this over…

@lauren_989 Hi! I provided my weigh-in; it’s on page 7 😊 PW: 185.2 CW: 184.8

PW: 185.2 lbs CW: 184.8 lbs I will take the slow and steady loss. 😊 My dietician and I met this week and she said I am down about 15 lbs from where I started meeting with her. It was a good reminder of my overall progress, and I’ve been able to fit into clothes that I haven’t comfortably worn since 2021. It felt good to…

My 10-8-6-4-2 for the week is - 10 - meals logged in my food tracker 8 - hours of reading 6 - workout sessions 4 - walks with my dog 2 - hours of tidying my house My goal is to accomplish all of these throughout the week, especially my reading one! 😊

Happy belated birthday @strong_fit_ells!! 🎉 @micki48 - I agree with Ashley; that on this very tiring days, it’s good to think about small things you can do to move. I also like to make sure I get my workouts done before work; if I don’t, I will be too exhausted. I had to adjust my sleeping schedule so I go to bed earlier…

PW: 186.2 lbs CW: 185.2 lbs This was a really good week for me for both exercise and food. I also attribute it to being better about not working super late. I only stayed at work past 6pm twice this week, which is pretty good for me. Now it’s about tackling the weekend. I am hosting friends for a tabletop game day this…

@cleaneater80 - For me, the biggest adjustment was adding back in commute time to my office day schedule. One thing I do is wake up at the same time each day, even the days I work from home and that helps with maintaining a routine. Then, when I work from home, I use that “commute time” to enjoy a cup of coffee or journal.…

@Alatariel75 - Congratulations on the new puppy! I can’t wait to see the photos. @cleaneater80 - What are some things you do to “close the kitchen”? Is it more of a mentality shift, or physical tasks (clean/put away dishes)? @MaddawgMadsen - Glad to hear you are feeling better! How many miles is your relay race? Do you…

I do eat breakfast most of the time, especially because I find I need the energy for my workouts in the morning. Right now, I have been enjoying a toasted bagel with cream cheese to get my day started, but I’ve also done overnight oats, eggs and avocado toast, oatmeal, and smoothie bowls. When we go out for breakfast, 90%…

He’s a beagle mix, so he loves to be a couch potato and snuggle when he’s inside. When we go outside, he’s in detective mode and wants to walk forever, which I don’t mind at all since it gets me moving too!

PW: 186.6 lbs. CW: 186.2 lbs. Every small step forward counts! 😊 I had planned on working out yesterday morning (gym clothes laid out and everything), however my dog, Cooper, wanted to snuggle all morning. Lately, he likes to lean against me on the couch together, and then he will proceed to flop over and across my lap.…

These are all great questions! Resolutions: I have in the past, however this year instead of setting a goal like “lose # pounds” I want to focus on what is going well in my present day instead of always looking to the future to be better. Traditions: They’ve changed for me over the years. When I was young and lived at home…

PW: 187.4 lbs CW: 186.6 lbs This was a week where I made a promise to myself to get back on track with my workouts after being inconsistent, and I did. It probably helped a lot that work was very quiet and almost all of my meetings were cancelled with so many people out on PTO. I didn’t mind “working” during this week…

Saturday please! I will weigh-in tomorrow. 😊

Hi @lauren_989! My weigh-in last week was: 188.4 Today (CW) is: 187.4 I’ve been fluctuating the same 2 lbs since November, but that is fine with me with all of my work travel, holidays, gatherings, and sheer number of hours worked. I know I need to get back into my groove of my workout regime, which has fallen off because…

Hi everyone. I am so sorry that I missed several weeks in a row. MFP’s notifications are not working for me, which have been a little frustrating, I’d love to know if someone has tips on how to get those working again. Also, I have been incredibly busy with work and I had some personal travel plans last week and then came…

PW: 187.8 lb CW: 185.8 lb I’m happy to see the scale move, but not so happy with my exercise regiment. This week was tough. Only one day of working out before I had 12+ hour days with challenging meetings. With all my meetings, I didn’t have much time to snack, and I was exhausted so I went to bed as soon as I got home…

@lauren_989 - Good luck to your husband and his follow up appointment tomorrow! For me, I guess suggestions on how to get movement in when my days are jammed with work would be helpful.

PW: 186 CW: 187.8 Honestly, I am pleased with this overall given the week I had. I drove about 4 1/2 hours on Monday to get to my first location for an in-person meeting with a team I support. We were in a meeting all day on Tuesday so very little time to move. I did workout on Tuesday morning though, ahead of my meeting.…

Hi everyone! Sorry I am late; @lauren_989 - can I change my weigh in day to Saturday? PW: 189 CW: 186 October was a month where I plateaued. And, it made sense. I pulled a muscle in my back, and I was unable to work out for about a week, I had a lot of travel during the month, and a lot of social events. It was hard not to…

Sorry for missing weigh-in last week; we were super busy and then I pulled a muscle in my back. PW: 188.2 CW: 189.0 I was only just able to get one workout in this week on Friday when my back finally felt good enough to do some movement. I don’t feel 100% yet, but definitely a lot better, so I also have spin class this…

PW: 189.4 lbs CW: 188.2 lbs The renaissance faire last weekend was a lot of fun! One of my friends and I bought ourselves tiaras that are just gorgeous. I also bought new D&D dice that are made from a metal. My husband did end up buying a turkey leg for lunch, which was his one goal for the faire. Now that my cold is…

PW: 189.8 lbs CW: 189.4 lbs Sorry for missing last week’s weigh-in! I was traveling for work at the beginning of the week, returned home for one day, and then my husband and I were on the road to head out to a music festival. I also ended up getting a small cold in between as well, that was manageable and didn’t get in the…

PW: 190.2 lbs CW: 189.8 lbs A smaller loss than I was expecting with a great week of eating and workouts, but I will take it. I don’t think I have seen a 18- on the scale since 2022, so that was very encouraging! This upcoming week, I have a work trip so I will do my best with the food choices I will have through the…

Happy Friday! PW: 191.2 lbs CW: 190.2 lbs Coming off a week of eating half a doughnut for dessert almost every night (or two halves) and it being TOM for me, this was a pleasant surprise. I stuck to my workout plan with strength training, and I have spin class tomorrow and yoga on Sunday. I ended up not going to my cooking…

Good morning! PW: 191.8 lbs CW: 191.2 lbs Apologies for the late post; yesterday was a busy day. A short week of work really felt like the longest week for me 😅 A great week of workouts - Wednesday was my rest day, and I did strength workouts on the other days of the week. I have my spin class this morning followed by…

PW: 192.6 lbs CW: 191.8 lbs Sorry for the late post! Friday was a hectic day for me with work and non-stop meetings from 8:30-4pm. This past week tested me quite a bit. When we got back from our little weekend getaway, I was slightly up, but then as we moved through the week, the number continued to rise, and I started to…

PW: 193.8 lbs CW: 192.6 lbs Overall, a good week for me! Spin and yoga over last weekend felt great to be back in it. I rested on Monday after we stayed up late on Sunday, and then I worked out Tuesday - Thursday with the final week of Sydney’s Summertime Fine program. I have 2 workouts to go until I complete the program!…
