I caught my husband's head cold and instead of eating all the comfort carbs, I'm choosing to eat the healthier food, largely in hopes of not catching it as bad as he had it. (plus my diet could use a kick in the pants). This also corresponds to my preferred method of "treating" most bugs - drink more water, eat more…

I love the mini-goals that are not weight related. Keep it up

I was actually kind of excited to see more cellulite dimples and looser skin in my legs and belly, because even though the scale hasn't moved I am still managing to get rid of some fat. The fat cells are now partially deflated and the skin is thus less tight and stretched out. I'm hoping that it is an increase in muscle in…

i Have logged breakfast and lunch so far today. First time in weeks I logged anything. Also so far I have avoided the mindless munchies this morning. That one is a bigger help for losing weight than the not logging thing for me.

226 this morning. so just over month for 6 lbs. I can do that

I want to hit 219.8 by my anniversary. I was 227 this morning.

stay below 225. I was 225 even this morning, so just a smidge more and then below 220.

Today I recognized that I want all the carbs as a result of the current recovery stage of covid ( a normal recovery stage for me for any bug). All the carbs usually results in the mindless munchies winning, but because I recognized it early, I am just being more cognizant of what goes in my mouth. The NSV part is…

First part: I was 219.8 this morning. Now for the second part of keeping it off for several days in a row. Or even better, get the number lower for more wiggle room.

get below and stay below 220. This morning I was 220.2 so .4lb needs to come off (scale is only .2lb) and stay off.

Right now the scale and I are fighting, so I decided to think of things I've learned to feel better about where I was and how I'm doing. 1) If I eat a protein heavier breakfast not donuts, muffins, or other pastries, I feel fuller and more sated for longer (less mid-morning munchies). Oatmeal with fruit and nuts and…

bust through this plateau/weight set point for more than a few days. and then 215 and on.

I can officially (multiple days in a row) claim that I have lost all covid related weight gain. I was 218 mid-March when I got back from vacation. The last several days I have been below that -as low as 216.5. So next mini-goal is 215. I should also find some clothes to help with the scale isn't moving times. I have some…

less butt= longer pants

My old and cheap sportsbra held everything in place without falling out the bottom as has been happening when I wear that bra

How much you might need to re-evaluate why you are trying to lose (what is the motivation) or at least the mini goals might change.

I was under 220lb this morning. I haven't been there in about a year. Next mini goal is to be under 220 for multiple days as I have a tendency to immediately gain after hitting a goal. 2nd goal sub 215 lb.

After several hours of frustrating phone calls, I went pantry hunting for something to make me feel better. Instead of caving to the less healthy options, I chose to eat plain strawberries, which satisfied me. I knew I wasn't hungry and was just trying to feel better. I actively picked the healthier option and didn't even…

I want to stop feeling the jiggle/wobble of my belly when I go up/downstairs or move quickly. It's rather disconcerting. Also still on the weigh less than my husband plan. I've been 5-6 lb heavier than him for a while but he is also trying to lose weight as well.

below 220. i was 223.2 this morning. the other one is less belly wobble when walking decently fast or going up/down stairs. it's rather disconcerting to feel it move around like that. SO less big soft squishy belly.

@lynneburgess714 If you lose stones can you throw rocks?

success. First day back upon my vacation return I was 224.8lb. next goal is below 220.

somewhere relatively recent on this thread (I don't feel like looking). i had a mini -goal of sub225. I was 224.8lb this morning. next mini-goal is stick it for a few days or at least not be any heavier after vacation on the next week.

pants to stop pulling across the hips/thighs/butt and to weigh less than my husband, who is also working on losing weight and I started more than him.

I moved 2 cubic yards of topsoil around the yard this weekend and am only a little sore (minus the sciatic nerve that has been getting randomly inflamed recently). The little bit of sore is enough to make sure I move around more purposefully today so i can still move tomorrow despite DOMS that I feel settling in as I've…

Instead of making a pasta bake tonight, I decided to basically do the keto version with no pasta just meat, sauce, veggies, and cheese. I've already been eating too many carbs today, so this makes me feel better even though I haven't done it yet today.

@Mewlingstork. That is extra impressive given the ref gear. Way to go.

1) less snoring 2) Easier breathing when going up a single flight of stairs 3) sub 227 (229.8 this morning)

back again. one of these days logging will become a habit again. until then, one day at a time. 1) Log dinner (I didn't measure/weigh breakfast so not going to guess today, and I did lunch already - oops need to put in the piece of bread and butter I just had. It will require more effort to log dinner than usual because it…

my pants are pulling across the hips and butt (and therefore being pulled down) back to 228. this morning I was 230.2
