I am 4 months pp and looking for a mom support group to help me lose some of the baby weight while still being accepting/loving/understanding of the body I have now. Does anyone have any leads? A lot of the relevant mfp groups seem old/inactive. PS my profile pic is pre-baby. And I thought I had weight to lose back then!!…

I would look into set point theory if I were you. It sounds to me like this is more of a body peace/body acceptance issue than a 'how do i lose weight' issue. Good luck friend! We're all in this together.

I have been sober for 14 days and counting and I am into it! I just feel happier and more stable, because my hang overs were the worst and it didn't take much for me to get a really bad hang over (and the moods that went with it). I haven't really noticed any other changes, but I have been sick with a cold for weeks so…

Go for the salad bar in the cafeteria! Get other workout buddies who are as into fitness as you are! College is a great time for physical activity so take advantage of all the clubs and classes! Sign up for something new and challenge yourself!

I definitely have the same issue and struggle with it. I find that it's best if I just eat something before a party and tell myself the snack table is off limits. I stand away from it or in a different room if possible, drink sparkling water or diet soda. Or if I havent had time to eat before or it seems rude not to, I eat…

I definitely get hungry that time of the month, there is always one day in particular right at the beginning where I want to eat all the things. I usually try to stay hydrated, get plenty of sleep/rest and engage in physical activity to help with cramps, and I find it also helps with my appetite if I'm well rested and have…

Last night I took the dog for a long walk to drop off a belated birthday gift at a friend's house. Then I had a bath and watched Gossip Girl in bed. It was very nice!!

Trying on my wedding dress that I ordered in a tight size originally, swimming around me and now it needs to be taken in!

Day 8 alcohol-free. Last night was tough because I was having a rough night and a glass of wine would have really hit the spot. I avoided it though with lots of tea, sparkling water and some low fat popcorn to snack on. Here comes the (sober) weekend! I am up to the challenge.

Day 6 being sober. Very happy. Not finding it hard right now (it gets harder on the weekends). I have bought some nice new teas for myself, as well as this "chocolate drink" product made of raw organic cacao, cinnamon and coconut milk. It's so tasty and satisfying! I have had it at night the last two nights instead of wine…

Hi everyone, I'm going alcohol-free in June for a variety of reasons. One, because the past few weeks I have over-indulged a few times and it leaves me feeling terrible the next day, physically and mentally. Two, because I am getting married in August and my weight loss has reached a standstill/plateau, and in…

Original starting weight - 178 June starting weight - 164.2 June goal - 159 Ultimate goal - 150 June 1st - 164.2 - started high which is annoying, I feel like I am never going to make it to the 150s. However, in a way it's nice to start high in June because it means I have room to go low! As background, I have been…

I'm in a similar boat where I lost over 30 lbs in 2014/2015 and then let it creep back up about 15 lbs. I've been focusing since January and have lost about 12-15 lbs through exercise and logging. Feel free to add me!

Strengthen your core and consider cutting out or reducing alcohol - there are some studies that say that alcohol results in larger fat deposits in the stomach area than other areas. Even if the studies are bogus, reducing alcohol intake will help slash calories overall. I know in me, when I have lost weight in the past,…

I lost almost 40 lbs about 3 years ago, which I was happy with. Then it started to creep back up when I got settled into a happy relationship, stopped watching my calorie intake, and I stopped weighing myself. After Thanksgiving 2017, after a total binge fest, I realized my clothes were starting to get tight on me again,…

Goal weight for this round: to be anywhere in the 150s! (even 159.9 would be great) Day/Weight/Comment 4/28 4/29 4/30 161.7 5/01 162.5 5/02 5/03 5/04 5/05 5/06 5/07
