My class (I’ma teacher) challenged another class to a game of kickball today. I played and scored 3 runs for my team. I’m not sure I could have done that when I was heavier.

I’m so sorry for your loss. We’re here if we can help in any way

Nursing Instructor here. Take the time to focus on yourself. Eating better, getting some exercise, etc., will help you to cope with the stress of nursing school (and it IS stressful), and when you lose a bit of weight, you'll find that being on your feet for clinicals (and then when you get out in the field) gets easier.…

I've moved from Class 2 Obesity into Class 1 Obesity.

I was dying for something sweet today. I had a small square of SUPER dark chocolate. It satisfied the craving without depriving myself, but I wasn't tempted to keep going.

There are several studies that suggest that hypothyroidism, if properly treated, won't impact your metabolism/weight loss. If you're still having symptoms, talk to your endocrinologist. PCOS, however, often comes with insulin resistance. There may be a benefit to limiting your carbohydrate intake because of that. Your best…

I have a question, and I figure you guys are safe to ask without getting a bunch of suggestions that I can't possibly do, lol. 100% of my exercise thus far has been cardio (mostly walking with the dogs outside). I'd like to start with some weight training. I have a bowflex (that I really don't know how to use), but don't…

Keep us posted on how they are!!! I'm curious!

It's FACE THE MUSIC FRIDAY! Age: 40 Height: 6'0" SW: 277.7 GW: 185(ish?) Weigh in day is Friday 9/1: 259.6 9/3: 259.0 9/10:257.4 9/17: 251.6 9/24: 248.9 Goal for September is to be at 250.- MET

I TOTALLY get what you mean by that. That's why I try to avoid most carbs. I don't think being in ketosis is magic, I just have no control once I get started. For the first couple of months, I try to avoid the carby sugary things entirely, then I start reintroducing them (within my calorie goals) as long as I can control…

Do you mean to hold things? If so, I use the sport2people running belt (about $13 on Amazon). It holds my phone, ID, keys, etc when I don't have pockets. I've even tossed a small water bottle in one of the pockets, and clipped a small collapsible water dish to it for my dog. It doesn't slide/shift, and holds a ton of stuff.

Welp, I'm back. I had been on this thread back in 2019, lost a lot of weight, and put almost all of it back on. Thanks COVID (RN). Age: 40 Height: 6'0" SW: 277.7 GW: 185(ish?)

There's a FB group (and likely others) for 75 day medium. It's a little bit...less. One workout per day, eat in a deficit, etc. Might be a better way to start

UGHHHH I've been off the wagon since our Vegas trip in November. As such, I went back out of ONEderland. Height: 6' SW: 281 CW: 206 (I was down to 193...what have I DONE!?) Goals: Get my crap together again. Pack lunch 4-5 days/week Start exercising again

Great job!

I liked the Active Network one.

I'm really tall and had a LOT to lose, but people REALLY started to notice around 35lbs down. Now I'm almost 90lbs down, and people who haven't seen me in a while often ask questions or comment.

Great job!

Great job! I do the same thing.

I'm BACK! SW: 281 CW: 191.6 GW: 175-180? I have been a giant pile of fail at this lately. I've been eating at maintenance for the last few weeks and am now struggling to get back on point. I've signed up for a 5k on Thanksgiving, so I need to get moving. My goals: Get moving more LOG CONSISTENTLY

6' Down 90lbs from 281 to 191.

That's a huge milestone! Great work!

90lbs down

I want to be in the 180s! I'm hovering around 192 now.

I was squeezing into a size 22 when I started this journey. Today, I fit every single pair of size 12 jeans I tried on (except for the length...don't get me started on that s**t-show). I am pretty sure I was born a size 14.

Great job!
