Feel free to add if you like. I am not perfect, I stumble along the journey and am not an expert. However, you will never hear a discouraging word and I believe anyone can achieve their goals with the right mindset along side hard work.

Feel free to add me if you like. I am not perfect when it comes to logging foods or a health expert. What I am is a 43 y/o Dad trying to live a great story and I know I need my energy levels up in order to do that - being on this site is one way to hold myself accountable to that. Best of luck to you all on your journey…

Hi all - feel free to add me if you like. I am approaching this process as a journey/marathon and not a sprint. There are going to be ups and downs, good weeks and bad weeks, my goal is to have more good than bad. I am not seeking perfection but consistency, improvement and being just a little bit better each week. Best of…

Congrats on your decision. Keep your reason for wanting to do this in front of you. Keep coming back to it. Think about your patients and some of the excuses they might give you based on the information/education you give them. If you catch yourself saying the same things to yourself, how will you respond? Like you said,…

To have the mental and physical energy to go out and live a great story because everything can change in the blink of an eye. I want to experience the world and one day be able to be chase my grandchildren around.

Congrats on deciding to make some changes. I like the idea of starting off with what you know you can handle and building from there. Build up those small wins and keep your goals and the reason you decided to get moving again in front of you. Best of luck!

Have you tried reconnecting with why you want to lose weight? How will you feel when you get to where you want to be? What are the positive and negative consequences for losing the weight? I have found when I am closely connected to my "why" and I can tie decisions back to feelings, then I will often pause and then make a…

Feel free to add me if you like - I am working on creating habits and a mindset that will help me succeed long term and eat/exercise right on a more consistent basis over a long period of time. Always open to share what I am learning along the way.

Feel free to add me as well if you like. I am trying to approach this with the attitude of a journey/lifestyle and not that of a sprint...some days I am successful :)

Not quite the progress I was hoping for to end the month but I figure I have a few more days before the end of the month :) Looking forward to the February challenge as this was good accountability for me and helped me stay focused toward the end of the week when I knew weigh-in day was coming. Starting weight - 205.4…

Whew! Thought I might have a setback this week. Some of my eating habits went sideways on Thursday/Friday and I did not sleep well this week which usually means less exercise and more bad eating. On track to meet the 5 pound loss goal for the month, reaching my altered January goal could be a bit tougher. Starting weight -…

Feel free to add/send friend request if you like (that includes everyone here). I am not perfect with eating and my workouts but I am trying to be more consistent and approach this from a long term perspective versus short term. If I can be consistent over time, I believe things can be achieved.

Feel free to add me as well. Trying to be more consistent on here both logging and interacting.

Pleased with this week. I was able to exercise 3 days, hit my step count 4 days and log my foods more consistently. Shooting for the same numbers or an increase to keep the scale number trending in the right direction.

I spent/am spending some time getting real clear on why I am doing this. Why do I want to exercise more, why is it important to watch what I eat, etc. For example, by exercising more and watching what I eat, I am more likely to have more consistent energy throughout the day. Yesterday at work I was headed out to get lunch…

My focus is going to be getting better in areas of my life.
