I'm getting much better at making sure I get my veggies. I've had to make a conscious effort to really fit them in. Plus I'm rather picky so finding ones I like sometimes gets hard, but I'm trying to expand my horizons and try new veggies.

I'd like to join SW 152 GW 137

for 6-24 1. Meal prepped for the week 2. Dealt with a stressful situation and didn't turn to food 3. Got everything done on my to-do list

This is the exact post I needed today! I'm twenty pounds down also. Yesterday my hubby and I went for one of our free trainer sessions at the gym we just joined. I came away somewhat down because of how much and how long the trainer told me it will take to get to my goal. Thanks for making me look at it another way!

My husband isn't a nurse, but he works 12 hour shifts. He says it's very hard. He walks a lot at work so the days he works he doesn't do any extra exercise. On his days off we try hard to be active.

Way to go!

Thanks everyone for the replies. I didn't really think that was true, just a trainer trying to sell. This was the trainer giving me the tour and trying to get me to sign up with the gym. I am signing up through my employer which is at a sizable discount. Once I mentioned that, he wasn't quite as interested in talking with…

Great job!

Wow! You look great!

Looking good! You are doing a great job!

Good for you, getting back on track. It sounds like you've maintained for several years so you are light years ahead of most of us. My biggest worry is being able to maintain once I've reached my goal. I still have about 30 pounds to go, so it will be a while.

Yes to all three! Had a great weigh in today, the hard work is paying off!

Exercise-yes Calories-under, had the munchies all day but made good choices Tracked-yes

Yes to all three

Mine is being able to walk right by the candy aisle in the grocery store, or not pick up a candy bar in the check out line. I'm rather surprised that it's become pretty easy and normal.

I've found since we are meal prepping, we save from not eating out. But we do spend more each trip at the grocery store, but I only go once a week, instead of the every other day like we used to. I also notice we throw less away, so overall we definitely spend less.

You look great! You've got a great start, more power to you!

Great job! You look amazing!

I'm in! SW 185 CW 169 GW for challenge 145. My ultimate goal will depend on how I feel and look.

I like that you posted this. I think it's a great idea. In future months you can go back and reflect. I just may steal your idea ;) I totally understand what you mean about making sure you eat enough and that the beers and wings (even within your calories) won't kill you. I have the same problem. I'm planning pizza with my…

Great job!

I have the same problem. It sometimes stops if I change where I put pressure on my feet. Always goes away as soon as I'm done.

Thank you for this post!

My NSV is I didn't overdue on Easter. I was even slightly under my calorie limit. Even scaled way back on getting candy for the grandkids.

You look great! Keep up the good work!
