Hi all- 48 here and have about 20 to lose. I’ve slowly gained weight over the last 10 years and I just feel yucky. I’ve always worked out regularly but I’ve let the diet go and need to focus more on the diet.

Day 13: mostly I’ve stuck to it. No alcohol - But a little cheating with the food diet due to poor planning and nothing handy when starving but it’s not been bad. Mostly, I’ve met my goal of just tuning in when cravings hit and not numbing out with food which is really the point over anything else. Will cheat a bit tonight…

I wouldn’t necessarily do ‘detox’ If you are trying to change your eating habits than just focus on what you need to change. I have pretty good eating habits but just needed a reset after the holidays, and a few other personal reasons.

Yes I’m the same with detox - just clean eating and drinking more tea and water. But I’m also doing a vegetarian diet and I’m usually a meat eater. But I want to see if I feel a difference with that too. Day 1 off to a good start. My only challenge was my sweet daughter bought me thin Reese’s cups cause she knows PB is my…

Same here. I haven’t weighed this much in 14 years. I was pregnant with first child. Blah I hate feeling like this.

I miss my cloths. I really want to wear the clothes I fit into just a 2 years ago. Plus I miss my muscles under the fluffy layer.

Alcohol and busyness: when ever thing get busy my self care goes away. I eat like crap and drink. Like the past 2 weeks. Too much traveling for work and this week is running children to all their sports/ stuff

Me! I’m 42 and the past year and half put on 10 lbs that I can’t shake. I really want to loses around 15-20 lbs and I need to stop making excuses and just get it done!

Ok down 3 lbs I need strength for the weekend:)

Yes me - my plan is 1500 total cals and I lift weight 4 times a week and run 5-7 times. If I eat clean and stick to it I can get there. But like today I feel like I'm losing - you know no bloat cloths fitting loose, so that when my body starts to fight back and makes me hungry. Then I eat too much. weight loss stops -…

I've got nothing except yeah same boat

Dont focus on the weight loss, focus on how much weight you can lift, or how many miles you can run or walk or whatever you like to do. Set a goal this week that has a focus on that and just focus on that and not the pounds. It can help get you past the fat days and once you accomplish one success it begets more success.…

Started binging after school in middle school to deal with stress. Fighting the weight and issue since.

Someone else finally... I'm thing of doing one in June. I need to start cutting slowly now, but I have no idea how to get started.

Well it's been a week and I haven't been too successful. I did manage not to eat desserts but still have been putting apple butter in my oatmeal. I also made some protein balls with honey. The cravings where terrible and I figured that would at least be something healthier than diving into the kids Oreos. I wish I could…

You can add me. I am recommitting my effort to eating clean starting today. I've fallen off the wagon, but making a commitment to get back to it.

It's a anti depressive med. I've really only binged once in the past 3 weeks. And it really wasn't that bad. Mostly I was hungry and didn't have time to fix something good. What I'm very happy with is just thinking less about food. It's not the obsessive thinking about what I should eat or not eat. I'm eating when hungry…

Well for the past 2weeks I've not binged. I wanted to get to July in control. I do feel in control of it right now. The meds have been a godsend. I don't know exactly how they are changing me but I just feel more in control of my emotions and definately my eating. so July is going to be even better.

The meds seem to be helping. There has been a few side effects the worst s just feeling a little high. I hope it goes away. I do feel emotionally better and in control of myself. I don't feel like I want to rip everyone's heads off and actually like people again lol. Dh and I did get into it a little on Saturday night. All…

Crepes- yes I love meditation. I wish I had more time to do it but I fit what I can in where I can. I started some depression medication. It's only been 2days but I feel a little less crazy so that's good. It's Saturday and dh really stresses me out most weekends. So if I can make it through today... I'm trying just to…

Last weekend started out good and went down hill. Sunday was a binge day because I had a very stressful day. Water heater down, dh having to work all day at home not celebrating Father's Day and then a dinner at my moms that did not go well. Then took my dad to lunch the next day and ate too much pizza and it went from…

Ok today was a challenge and I did manage not to binge! I was right on the edge I wanted to so bad. I had some stressful situations last night that I was ruminating over and feeling bad in general this morning with a headache and tired from not sleeping well. But I got through it.

Yeah I wouldn't even know how to explain it to dh. Stress causing eating. Though I've seen him soothe with food too it's different from a binge like I have. Here's what I think is triggering my binge behavior this past year... My dear sweet children lol. I love them but I think some days they really stress me out. Plus I…

Hey pudding- thanks and no dh doesn't know. I haven't spoken to anyone about it except on here. Well sat, sunday and yesterday where terrible. Actually yesterday was a binge day and sat sun where just bad eating days. Dh and my anniversary was sat so we celebrated with dinner out and way to much wine. That would have been…

I've managed to keep it together today. Upped my calories today and actually had pasta so I feel full and normal. Dh and I have anniversary this weekend and my dad is watching my kids tomorrow night. I'll have to deal with dh on my own which sometimes is stressful for me. Just have to not nag... I have been reading this…
