Thank you everyone. I know I need to trust the process and not the scale. Using this current program I am doing they actually have you enter your weight each day and look at the weekly average, I try to focus on that but it can be a bit hard. Just trying to stay positive.

I need somewhere to be accountable so I am back here! I hope everything is having a great week. I had more than I wanted to on Saturday but I have been dry since then. My plan is no drinks until saturday and going to try to exercise every day, at least a walk. Oh ya and stay in my cals haha. Happy Tuesday everyone! Monday-0

I decided to start over, thanks everyone your input. It makes me feel good that I have lost 6lbs since being back on the wagon.

Looks like I am the only one keeping up with the forum. We are only a few days away from the end of the month and I have already hit my goal that I originally posted so I am going to count that as a win! I will be starting a new forum group on the 1st and I hope everyone and then some are interested in joining for the next…

How is everyone doing with their goals?? I'm going faster than I thought I would so I'm hoping to be able to keep it up!

I wrote a whole post on Thurs and it didn't post. I am kind of busy right now so not a ton of time. I hope everyone is having a great Friday! I had a 3.4 loss today! WOOhoo Now to keep this going and make it under 190 by May would be sweet but I am not going to kill myself to do it! Just hoping for the best and working…

Welcome @AmberSpamber do you have some goals you want to share for the last week of April? I'll start a new thread for may on the 1st.

@angellak muscle soreness is a good thing and I just deal with it and keep going. The best thing to do when you're sore is to use the same muscles again. Also replenishment after the workout is important. I try to make sure to get a lot of protein after lifting as well. I'm still not feeling great, I think I'm fighting a…

Looks like you have some good plans @shadow2soul Do you check your weight every day? I think I would go crazy doing that LOL Also my thighs are getting huge from lifting, I just read an article that made me feel better because it is common for that to happen before they get smaller. Right now I am just trying to get back…

Yes @ChrisiEMilio feel free to add some goals for the week/ rest of the month! I will be creating a new thread for May so we can all stay accountable! The weekend is always my downfall! I went out on a date night with the hubby friday night and I actually ordered probably the healthiest thing on the menu! I am making way…

Woohoo I am down 2.2 this week. Really it is just getting back to where I was 2 weeks ago but hey I will take it as motivation. This weekend I will be working and studying a fair amount. I also have to go visit family either today or tomorrow. I was hoping I could do family dinner tomorrow so I could go to crossfit…

Woohoo I did a 90lb front squat! I feel like a rockstar.

@jaclyntranchannel You can favorite or star this thread and then easily find it. It is so good to see that people are jumping on. All I have to say is that cutting down your calories too low and not eating back you exercise calories can truly hurt your body. I will not condone anyone no matter what your weight eating 1200…

I got a mini chocolate bar so it was only 200 cals and I think it made me think a little better in class. Just ate a rice cake with a little almond butter on it. I am so tired since I have been tracking cals and eating better, it doesn't help that I am volunteering, in school and working at the same time. I am so ready for…

@delij83 You can post what your Current weight is and what your goal is for May and then beyond. I also really like adding non weight goals because this is more than just about weight loss. @endofnext Woohoo! Good job. Getting out there in the beginning is the hardest part. When I first started running and even know when I…

How do you like the zombies Run 5k? I was thinking it might be good for my hubby.

woohoo more people!

I am bummed noone is jumping on this I might have to go find an active group! Oh well!

I guess if I am the only one posting on here I might as well keep at it! Well I feel like I am struggling with weekends the most, especially if we have an event. We had a wedding that we went to over the weekend and ended up going out of town. I did make better choices, ordering vegetables or salad instead of fries but…

I would love to join a group that can help me stay accountable! Is it too late to join in on this? I can have a 7lb goal by june 10 or something LOL

I use the fitbit. So far I am questioning that goal since I am so busy it is proving challenging to get that goal in every day. I have the flex and part of me wants the surge so I can have the HR monitor. Which one do you use.

No takers yet??

What should the forum group name be? Suggestions would be awesome ladies! I want somewhere that I can go daily to talk about our successes and our struggles. I want something positive- Hotties working to be hotter in April? LOL I am open to anything!

The scale says I gained this week but I'm just getting started on this journey again. I've been working hard this week. I'm writing it down and putting it out of my mind. How is everyone else doing this week?

Woohoo! This makes me want to start a regular group post with you guys so we can all work together. Thoughts?

All of these posts are making me feel like I need to try Eat to Perform LOL but honestly I am more interested in losing weight/fat before focusing so much on my gainz in crossfit. Thanks for all of your tips!

Hey! What do you think worked best for you with losing weight and doing crossfit as your main exercise? I am trying to drop some weight and just would love any extra advice. LOL and I probably need to cut back on the excessive drinking/eating on the weekends to start LOL

Yay! Thanks to everyone who added me!! Please add me if you didn't already. I'm so ready to do this and get all the support!

I am in!! I love this with the non weight loss goals. Name:Aly Height: 5'6" Starting Weight (4/8): 195? Weigh in day is friday and my scale sucks but I will reweigh Goal Weight (5/8): 190 4/8: 195 4/15: 4/22: 4/29: 5/6: Loss/gain for the week: Loss/gain for the month so far: Loss/gain since starting weight loss journey:

I feel your pain! I have been on antidepressants for the past 2 years or so and I have gained at least 15ish lbs and I was on this site before and lost almost 30 lbs to be back to the beginning. But we can't change the past all we can do is take care of right now. Be strong and remember each meal is a new chance to make it…
