Welcome Back

I've been very inconsistent in the last year. I'm in! I've never done an 80 (or 90) day program. I'm nervous for sure - fear of failure !

Welcome!!! We're here to help. Here's to the next steps on your journey There will always be up's and downs, but in the end, its a lifestyle. You can do it! YOU are worth it

Welcome !!! Here's to continuing the journey with exercise and your healthy foods! :)

Hi Holly (and Lee) Welcome! There's a ton of lifters here for sure. What part do you find hard to stick to? what throws you off? I find having a strong "why" helps. Why do you want this? Why do you want that first goal? (break it into small steps). ADD Before Delete. Add something good to your process and then 'take out…

Welcome and yet sorry. I'm here too! I've been here for awhile and had truly toned up, not perfect but my personal best and boom... 10 pounds back on and couldn't budge! for the last 1.5 years. I had quit being so 'on' with my food because if I ate well or bad it was the same. I was always working out though - but then…

Welcome back! Calorie count seems low for your height/weight. Long term success is about getting enough nutrients. If you cut too much, you'll be craving everything in another week and then it gets hard. Glad you're already feeling better! write down your Why. More than the X pounds... but how will it Feel when you hit…

you have GREAT info above.... so I'm going for "tough love" Start with your Head. Read some Positive information and DECIDE I mean DECIDE and in your words fu..ck..ing DECIDE what YOU WANT! Do you want to eat what you want, when you want to no matter what anyone says? Then fine. Do that. But don't then complain about it.…

Lifestyle change is where its at!

why do you want to do this? That's step one. The desire to change has to be stronger than the desire to stay the same. Next - what is your 'diet'? (Lifestyle change is where its at) If you're cutting too much, and 'giving up everything and hating what you eat' its not sustainable, and hence, a few days in and done. Start…

No. My motivation is healthy and longer life - which can be Hard to do because its not something we "see" daily. My husband doesn't really care if I workout daily or gain 10 pounds. I want to be around as long as possible for my kids. That's my goal. It has to be something for YOU doing this "to get someones eye" means…

You're almost half way there - congrats! Keep up consistency What do your days look like? Exercise? General food? Are you logging? Focus on the lifestyle not a 'quick fix'

^^^ +1 for Vismal For me, its the tummy I lose from last - my thighs are fine. We are all made different. Focus on good foods. Kids being home is more reason to be out Playing! (depends on their ages) Walk with them, get involved in what they like. Keep Moving. Congrats on what you've done so far. This is a journey and…

Congrats on the 2 pounds! Now just "cutting out" the sugar foods and those that turn to sugar faster, is one thing, but then an "add in" is needed. Again - 800 calories a day isn't enough for long periods of time. What Are the 800 calories consisting of? How can you increase calories without carbs? Healthy fats, oils, and…

Frustrating! Maybe an Analysis with a PT and they'd have more training for figuring out where the issue comes from?

One day at a time all! I'm not in the same boat but I have my struggles and health reasons for sure! Write down WHY you want this. Then dig into Why that is "I want to lose 25 pounds " WHY? "to feel better" WHY do you want to feel better? "To go shopping and not be tired" Why do you want to do that? And get Deep on why you…

Congrats on graduation! Treat this journey like one of your last classes! Make a plan, and write it out each week. Have a balanced amount of foods each day. Get some exercise. Plenty of water. Set goals per week. Get an A in the most important class - YOU

Sorry for your loss Welcome Back

Welcome Alex!!!! One day at a time! at the two-three week mark its very common to hit the "this isn't fun anymore and I don't see changes" and quit. DON'T QUIT. Its when the changes are about to hit! mentally and physically! Its a journey. there's good days and bad. Easy days and hard. In the end, its worth it for your…

Welcome Danielle. I had to look up OMAD I'm assuming with the 'unexplained' weight gain you talked to your doc and they looked at your thyroid and looked for autoimmune issues? Good luck on your plan.

Welcome! Oh goodness you must be tired with that vitamin D level! I've been hanging out here for years. The last two I've Added 10 pounds vs losing. peri-menopause and recent Celiac diagnosis and I'm suspecting some thyroid issues, but doc hasn't run the deeper numbers because the 'basic' looks ok.

Congratulations!!!!!! Welcome to the board. One day at a time! Get adjusted to mom of two and get past these first few weeks with focusing on food Having healthy foods around to easily grab on the crazy days when you need an extra set of arms and don't have them. It keeps one from grabbing the cookies, and any other item…

Congrats on your little girl!!! Welcome!

Congrats and Welcome

Welcome! Being able to have a shot at that baby should be the Best motivation! If you want something bad enough, you WILL do it versus just 'wanting to'. You watched your husband Beat Cancer! YOU Can Do this!!! Two IVF babies myself. Its not an easy process, but worth it. Step One towards being a mom!

Welcome!

Welcome!!! Two kids here. 7 and 9. It was being an 'older' mom and then finding my cholesterol was bad that got me started. crazy busy days, but I made it work, and that number is great! now to lose the stubborn pounds on top of it. Don't let the kids be the excuses, but be the Reason

Welcome!!! Love all the encouragement for each other. Each day is a new day. There will always be ups and downs. I recommend writing down WHY you are doing this and Deep... ask why 5 times and keep digging... then, on the bad days you'll have your own personal reminder as to why you are making a change for you, for your…

Welcome

Welcome!!! You are Worth It !
