  • Thanks for all the ideas! I think wraps might be a good option. It is hard because I don't want to give him anything heavy but by the time we get home it's practically time for bath/bed and I don't want him eating so close to bedtime. We tried a big snack before and a big snack after but I felt like he wasn't getting a…
  • Sorry you are going through a rough spot! Maintenance is so difficult for many reasons. I remember being so overwhelmed when I realized that monitoring my eating habits closely was going to be something I'd have to do forever. Obviously I didn't and here I am. One thing I did back then when I was struggling in the evening…
  • I'm a daily weigher as well. It keeps me on track and honest with what I'm eating. When I was weighing weekly I would think, "Well, I can have this extra (treat/drink/ect) because I won't be on the scale for 5 days." It would spiral from there. If I weigh daily I'm honest daily. If I do have a drink or we go out to dinner…
  • You can totally do this! My highest was 240 just out of college. I was down to 190 on my own then joined WW and got down to 148 before I got married at 26! It took me about 10 months to get there (190-148). If I can do it ANYONE can!! I want so badly to get back there.
  • I'm so committed to this and would be happy to be a buddy as I could use a few myself! Anyone is free to add me! Need to get some pictures in tomorrow!
  • In my previous weight loss journey I told myself that if I couldn't do it without a food scale I wasn't going to do it. I measured everything and typically would under measure just a bit to "be on the safe side." I hit a plateau and purchased a food scale. Turns out I was way off with some things---sometimes over,…
  • Newbie here too! Welcome! The first step is the hardest, right :) Feel free to friend me! I'm happy to provide encouragement and could use some accountability myself, too!
  • I'll join in too!
  • I'm new here but just finished Jumpstart to Skinny and had really good results. My husband lost 15 pounds and I lost 10. Not too shabby! I did not walk or do the exercises every day but tried to get them in every other day (3x/week at least). My husband did no extra exercise. Looking forward to a group to work through the…
  • I'm happy to join you and could use some buddies! My son is 4 and I lost a large amount of baby weight initially after being 230 prior to delivery, down to 160. It's so chaotic now that I've managed to gain about 40 pounds back and have trouble trying to squeeze in exercise! I joined a while ago but am really committed to…
