  • Same for me! I lost a toxic ex-husband. I may not have lost a lot of weight yet, but it feels like I lost 250+ pounds by divorcing him. There are way more things that I gained, though!
  • Every morning, on an empty bladder. I wear the same type of clothes every weigh-in: a tank top and athletic capris. I only officially log it on Sunday mornings, though. I like to see my weight every day, though, so I can see the fluctuations based on my food choices, the amount of water I drank, and exercise.
  • I want to get down to 350 by my 30th birthday. I need to lose about 17 pounds in 2 months and I think that's quite doable for my current pace. I also want to walk at least five 5K's by my birthday.
  • I've had a few moments throughout my adult life. I had my moment before I got married. I had another moment when I filed for divorce. I had another one before I went to Hawaii for a conference. And I had one again this month. I'm 29, almost 400 pounds, diabetic, have fibromyalgia and arthritis in two joints, and I was just…

  • I love zoodles or other veggie pasta. Or just fill up on veggies in general, it'll provide you with extra servings of vegetables and will be full of fiber.
  • I second this 100%. I was having a bad few weeks and barely ate. My goal to lose 2 lbs/week is around 2000 calories but I was eating maybe 1200-1300 and the scale did not budge. I was working out on top of barely eating. I start eating at least 1500-2000 and the scale moves like crazy. This is especially true if you are…
  • Carbs in general (bread, rice, pasta, etc.). I started doing keto 20 days ago and I cannot believe how much lower my calories are when I'm not having all these carbs.
  • Some of us need to do it for health reasons. I have diabetes and I was told to eat lower carb to help manage my sugar levels. I personally love eating low carb. Carbs were a big part of the problem when I ballooned up to 370 pounds because it was easy for me to eat a lot of carbs and they added a significant amount of…
  • Depends on the day, honestly. My goal to lose 2 lbs./week is 2060 but I'm consistently below that. I'm working on being more mindful of my hunger cues. And I'm working with a dietician on a weekly basis, so she's keeping an eye on my calories being lower than the goal. I have a bunch of weight to lose though, so I'm not…
  • I'm overcoming my eating disorder, today I am 9 days binge free! This is huge for me because before I was binging multiple times every day.
  • Hi! My name is Sara, I'm a 27 year old Ph.D. in Psychology candidate, married, and have been in recovery from Binge Eating Disorder since January. I am currently working with a therapist and dietician to aid in my recovery. I have binged my entire life and at my worst, I was binging multiple times each day. Typically, I…
  • Hi! I'm a college student, currently, I am a Ph.D. candidate. I definitely understand the struggles of trying to get healthy while in college. We experience a ton of stressors and never seem to have any downtime. It will be difficult, there may be setbacks (I have had my fair share of them) but it is worth it to keep…

  • I am definitely down for this challenge! I've been doing this on my own for the past 3 months now but it will be nice to have more people active in it. I'm down 15lbs since March and I have my next fitness evaluation at my gym on the 5th of June. I've been working really hard this past month and cannot wait to see my…

  • I'm a south eastern Wisconsin girl, living in Seattle
  • I went through something similar recently. I've been on my weight loss journey for a few years now and recently gained back all the weight I lost because I wasn't tracking. A few weeks back, I started eating healthier and exercising regularly again. My weigh-in this past week said that I gained a pound even though I didn't…
  • 5'10.5"
  • Eating huge portion sizes every time I ate. Also, restricting myself from eating certain foods.
  • Hi! I'm 5'10.5", started out at 315, currently at 279 and hoping to get down to 160ish. Feel free to add me. :)
  • I'm 5'10.5" and eating at 1880 currently to lose 1.5 lb/week.
  • I'm in SE Wisconsin, but I'd be happy to offer support. Add me, if you'd like!
  • 39 pounds but being sick for a month has contributed 10 pounds to that loss.
  • Will be 23 in 13 days :)
  • Not all that much... my best friend is tiny but she has a boyish figure, no curves at all. Now me on the other hand, I have an hourglass type figure and I love my curves. Not to mention that she is 8.5 inches shorter than me. :) Don't get me wrong, I "envy" (to an extent) certain parts of her body, mostly her stomach…
