Count me in. I need all the help I can get to stay motivated!! March Start Weight: 218.8 March Goal Weight: 214 Ultimate Goal Weight: 145 Feb 28: 218.8 March 8: March 15: March 22: March 29: March 31:

I hear you girl! I'm doing well this time because I decided to put myself first. I make my own food and eat it at a time that works for me. I make enough so there's leftovers for my husband but I don't let him dictate what/when we eat. I don't buy any unhealthy foods anymore and if my husbands wants it, he has to buy it…

Had a great weigh in today at 227.1 so I'm setting a mini goal of 220 by Thanksgiving. That would be awesome! Wish me luck (and patience). Haha!

Well, I don't know why I feel discouraged today. I'm doing really well, but I just want this weight off so bad that it's hard to be patient. So so hard to keep myself cheery. I'm just so tired of being fat!!! Argh!!!! I guess my attitude needs adjusting more that my food intake. Haha! Hope everyone's day is going better…

Just finished my 1st week restarting the program and I'm down 4.8!! So happy, but I'm a little nervous about the weekend. Going out of town for 5 days for a family wedding, and I'm worried. I guess my goal for this week will be not to gain. Haha! A little off would be great though, so I'll try my best. Certainly don't want…

I would love to join the challenge. Have a doc appt mid December and would love to have lowered my A1C. I also have a lot of lower back/hip/knee pain because of my weight and I'm sick of dealing with it. Walking is the worst for me, which really sucks. Just restarted the program so I'm motivated. Goals: Lose 15lbs by doc…

Glad I found your post today Rick. Usually have a family member or two to motivate me, but not this year, so I'm gonna try your March challenge. I usually only exercise 2-3 times a week so this will be great for me. Have lost 9 pounds so far and need to lose another 50+ so hopefully this will give me the push I need to…

@goal06082021 Thank you so much for the words of encouragement. I know I should be glad to have lost in January and that any loss is great. I am really going to try and be more positive this month, but still try to stop the indulgences. :wink:

Just found this thread and think it might give me the encouragement I need. Started off really well in January, but have slacked off now and it's hard to get back on track. Seems to always be the way with me. I start out strong and then I get depressed because the weigh isn't coming off as easily as I hoped, so I get…

This is so great. I started at 256 too and have only lost 35 lbs so far but, to see the difference with your pictures is truly amazing and motivating. Thank you so much for sharing. You look like a whole new you!! Congrats!!

Hi Nicole. It looks like you're in the same boat as me and I don't think you should add calories. I keep my calories under 1300 at least 5 days a week and then give myself a couple days with a little more (1500-1800) but only if I feel like it. It usually means a few beers on the weekend. :) I'm doing good with that. I did…

Thanks guys. It looks like most of the marinade will be left in the bowl so I'll measure that and re-figure from there. I think I should count it though. Oil, honey & soy sauce mainly.

Seriously agree with Glass Slippers. Thank you.
