  • Starting the journey again, but this time with more tools to support myself. Would love to have friends to share our successes. :)
  • Good morning, The holidays were ROUGH. I'm just now making a return to healthy eating. I enjoyed myself over the holidays and my husband's birthday. I did notice a change in my eating though as I didn't eat as much as I would have before. So that was good! I've had my soup and salad for lunch today and planning my dinner.…
  • I have been eating pretty badly for a few days. I had dipped down to 332 but I'm back up to 334. That still puts me 3 pounds down from last week (337). I have been super hungry cause of that time of the month. Hoping I can keep my weight down this weekend and keep going next week.
  • SW: 343.6 LW: 337.6 CW: 344.0 Yay! I am almost down ten pounds!
  • Good afternoon! I have had a busy day but I was so excited to get on the scale this morning. My mini goal (after getting under 340) was to get under 335. I thought maybe by next week, but this morning I was 334.6! YAY! I have been staying active and staying under calories. :)

  • Happy Saturday! Weekends are always the hardest for me, which is when my husband is home. Plus I'm not super busy all day and that lets the boredom eating strike. Which, he wants to go get Thai food for lunch today and get some shopping done. (I do LOVE Thai food!) Goals for today: - Stay under calories - Drink 64oz of…
  • SW (For challenge): 343.6 LW: 340.6 CW: 337.6 I finally made it under 340! I was so excited this morning, especially after a rough weekend of eating. I think the water weight from starting to go to the gym finally fell off (boy did it take a while). My personal goal for November was to hit 337, so I'm counting it since…
  • Good morning. I managed to stay under calories yesterday and I had a super busy day so my activity was way up PLUS I went to the gym. I think by May 1st this CICO thing will be second nature. I do really well every day and I haven't had that many days where I struggle with hunger. (Though the days I do are ROUGH.) My goal…

  • I was over calories quite a bit over the weekend. I am having a very stressful Monday as well. I'm hoping that getting back to the gym tonight will help reset me. I have been burning quite a bit of calories at work lately with decorating my entire nursing facility *by myself*. It's a lot of work! My cheat day on…
  • I had a cheat day on Thanksgiving day, did well on Friday, but I had a migraine yesterday (Saturday) and went over calories. Hoping to be back on track today. I am still proud that I went nearly 40 days before my first cheat day.
  • Back down to 340.2 after all those water weight fluctuations. I can't believe your body can swing between weights so fast!
  • I was back down to 340.4 today after a weird 5 days of fluctuation (all the way up to 342.2). Hoping to get under 340 sometime this week. My goals for today were to stay under calories and go to the gym. I did both!

  • Good morning. I forgot to post in the group yesterday but I had a good Saturday. My brother in law and sister have started to go to my gym and use CICO, so they asked me to come show them around. So I got in an extra workout! Usually the weekends are hard because of temptation from my husband, but he has been getting…
  • Morning. Having a rough start to the morning. I weigh myself every morning and I think that is backfiring. For two days I weighed 340.2, then yesterday at 340.4, and then today at 341.4! I have been eating under my budget and going to the gym. I know that weight fluctuates, but I am so excited to be under 340. Goals for…
  • What a good week. :) I met most of my goals and I'm slowly getting better at drinking more water. I broke my cup at work yesterday so I brought my bottle I use when I go to the gym so I don't have an excuse today to not drink my water. I was frustrated the last few days as I am SO close to falling under 340, but the scale…
  • Good morning! Had a wonderful day yesterday and cooked dinner with my best friend since she's on this journey with me. We had some really delicious mexican cauliflower rice, black beans, and homemade salsa. I was surprised at how many calories are in the Costco Pork Tamales, but I had budgeted for it! I go to the gym on…
  • Good morning. :) SW (For challenge): 343.6 CW: 340.2 I am so close to falling under 340 and that is one of my milestone goals!! Hoping to get under 340 tomorrow since I'll be going to the gym tonight.
  • @rayonrainbows I actually have a 32oz cup that I only use for water at work. I just am out of my office so often that I forget to drink. At home, I use MIO to flavor my water and that helps too. I don't mind water, honestly it's probably what I drink the most of anyways, but I am just slacking on hydration in general LOL.…
  • Happy Tuesday to everyone! I have been having trouble getting enough water the last few days so I'm going to really try to be better about being hydrated. I get so busy at work I forget to drink and then I'm trying to drink WAY too much water at the end of the day, ha-ha. Goals for today: - Stay under calorie budget -…
  • I have been making myself motivational graphics to remind myself to be positive and keep going.
  • Good afternoon! Such a busy (and horrible) day at work so far. COVID really is not fun in healthcare right now. I'm going strong though and making it as good of a day as I can. Goals for today: - Stay under calorie budget - Go to the gym (chest/shoulder day) - Drink 65oz of water

  • Met most of my goals today, I might be slightly short on water. Did a lot better with hunger today too! The weekends are the hardest. When I'm at work, I don't have time to worry about being hungry, so here's to a good week ahead.
  • Good morning! I had a rough day yesterday, managed to stay within my calorie budget, but the smoked wings I had for lunch were WAY too full of sodium, so I think I am carrying some extra water weight now. Boo! I am not sure what my husband and I are up to today yet, but I think I am going to request Subway for lunch. It…
  • I am having a very hungry day today. I can't seem to chase away the feeling. I've been drinking a lot of water, trying to get at least some relief from the feeling but I am just ravenous today! :(
  • You've got this and keep going!
