I'm also socially motivated, I love this idea. The message board system is a little wonky here, it's not quite the same as an actual meaningful conversation.

These past few months have been ROUGH mentally. I seemed like the more I focused on counting the more and more negative I got on myself. I couldn't get on scale without basically devolving into anxiety and loathing... so yeah. And at home no one gets it, my bf lost about 100 lbs just by starting a treadmill regimen. So I…

I've had terrible anxiety the past few months. I haven't been able to get on scale without immediately hating myself. It's been awful. But I found a friend willing to help me. I have started going to the gym a few times a week for cardio and muscle building to see if I can get some strength back in my lower body (I have…

My bf are both tall and were both fluffy, he lost close to 100 lbs during stay at home... I don't want to be the fat gf in other people's eyes. (Kinda jealous all he did was start walking on treadmill 45 mins a day.)

Ok so I had to move my scale from work to home, so the weights are likely waaaay off. So even though this looks like a loss it likely is not. Will see next week. Jan 6 - 279.8 Jan 13 - 284.2 Jan 21 - 277 Jan 27 - 280.4 Feb 10 - 278.6 Feb 18 - 272.2 Feb 23 - 271.0 March 2 - 272.8 March 9 - 274.4 <stress attack break> 😵…

Life has been in a complete upheaval since I last checked in. Trying to jump back on the plan but it is hard being alone most of the time. Hope everyone else is doing well and staying healthy!

The past 2 weeks have been challenging mentally and physically. Scale is headed the wrong way, but finally feeling better, mostly. Sorry for being late. Feb loss: 7 March 2 - 272.8 3/9 - 274.4 3/16 - 3/23 - 3/30 - Goals: ☘ Reduce coffee (this might be pipe dream... so a coffee addict) and diet soda, up water. ☘ 1500 to…

The past 2 weeks have been challenging mentally and physically. My diet has suffered. Scale is headed the wrong way, but finally feeling better, mostly. I was feeling really defeated about weigh in today. But then because of this thread I realized I'm still further down than I was in Jan... so I still had some progress…

I feel that long commute drag. I have to get to gym right after getting into town cs going home first or I'll never go. Missed my monthly goal of getting under 270. So I'm going to aim for that again. I have had a really rough week health and just haven't thought about logging.

Weigh in Feb 10 - 278.6 Feb 18 - 272.2 Feb 23 - 271.0 March 2 - 272.8 Feb loss 5 lbs. Did not meet monthly goal the past week has been rough health wise, having a lot of IBS issues and migraines. May have eaten my pain... comfortable food and all. Hoping referral doctor doesn't find a femoral hernia my spine specialist…

I definately need more outlets with people dealing weigh and life like me. I've been over 200 since I was young, my highest was 350ish. I was 5'11" but i lost about an inch thanks to a disc being removed from my back or getting old who knows lol. (I'm 35 ;-p) Jan 27 - 280.4 (sw) Feb 10 - 278.6 Feb 18 - 272.2 Feb 23 - 271.0…

Check in... it was a rough week I was really bad a few days and really didn't track...just had an emotional week, couldn't really ID why. Likely should have been a TOM week but saved from the usual, thanks to my IUD. Feb loss - 8 Jan 27 - 280.4 Feb 10 - 278.6 Feb 18 - 272.2 Feb 23 - 271.0 Back up on the horse this week.…

@angelexperiment I sympathize completely with you! We do what we can! I had a disc removed a little over a year ago (at 34) but still am struggling with other degenerative disc issues weakening my legs. Swimming helps, and yoga but it hard to do a lot of high impact cardio or lifting. But we can do this!

@SarahMWong15 good job! I really struggle with eating my emotions and using food as comfort. I think you did a great compromise, cause sometime you do just need chocolate to feed the hangry monster, lol.

No loss in Jan. Jan 27 - 280.4 Feb 3 - 279.4 Feb 10 - 278.6 Feb 18 - 272.2 I usually weigh in on Mondays, but my scale is at work, and we had off yesterday. Didn't log yesterday, it was just a really off day with migraine and running errands.

I'm probably going to use clothing. i try to weigh in at work on a monday morning right when I get there at 730. It's a little tricky to weigh in at home I have no uncarpeted flat surfaces in the house. Some weeks are worse I think due in part to A) I ate all the things b) hormones. I always have 1 chub week in a month no…

I started tracking again in Jan. It's been up and down since then. But this is a new week. I need support other than planning non-food wins for myself. I need a sticker chart like a little kid lol. 🤣 Jan 6 - 279.8 Jan 13 - 284.2 Jan 21 - 277 Jan 27 - 280.4 Today - 278.6 So back on track but not very far. I always seems to…

Is it too late to join? I have been over 200 since I was very young. I've been down in the 250s but snuck up closer to 300 after a back injury. I'm in the 270s today and need something to motivate me. I had a group at my old job that was for accountability that helped, but my new job I'm all alone and it seems there is…

33... lost a significant amount of weight when younger, but then had life changes and injuries that set me back to over 300. It is crushing. Trying to lose and strengthen at 33 is so much harder than just 5 years ago

Hope the gym went well. It can be terrifying to return, so it's not an easy goal!

Fresh loaf bread and cheese balls... I tied cutting carbs way back, but it's like am addicted I crave them so bad and then I over indulge. I eat alot of the same foods I always did I find moderation leads to slower loss, but there is progress and learning to make thoughtful and better choices.

I'm Carla from, PA, USA. I love TOS, always did always will. Watched reruns with my dad and it stuck. You know it's bad when my students know my room thanks to the ships of the line calender in it. But I love VOY too, I think there were missteps, but in general it had the feel of exploration and character relations that I…

I'd love Vulcan, but I could not do the no animal flesh thing... I do love a good steak, but would love to try more GOOD veggie focused food.
