What a difference .2 lbs makes!
I was overweight, at 183 5'6", when I got pregnant six years ago. Since then I've done WW and made other efforts to lose weight but never got below 180 again. For a few weeks I have been down to 180.0-182 and while that is awesome it didn't feel stable enough to get excited over yet. Well this morning, for the first time…

Is re-comp possible while losing slowly?
I've seen a bunch of posts on here about body recomposition through bulk/cut and strength training. It seems like people usually do all/most their losing first, then try to build up muscle, take a little more fat off, build up muscle, etc. That all makes sense to me, and I also see posts they say "you can't lose weight…

It makes sense now but it didn't even occur to me that I'd be gettingsuch a workout. ( ok , so the sweat happened when they…

Playlist suggestions?
I have recently started running again and could use some new music ideas. While I prefer to run outside listening to nature, it's still a little cold so I've been relegated to the treadmill. I just can't keep my energy up on that thing without some super pumped up music! I don't really listen to pop/club music much…

Health improvement successes
I'm really interested in hearing success or progress stories related to improved health. I've seen a few inspiring posts where people got off their blood pressure meds or had greatly improved breathing, but was surprised to even see things like improved skin and hair noted. I love the idea that I could maybe be off my…

Going to try to stay positive and consistent this time
My weight has fluctuated my entire life and I tend to follow a pattern: go hard with exercise and calorie restriction and then gain it slowly back... Or now that I'm late thirties it seems it never really comes off and I give up after a couple months. Trying to lose 35 now so that I'll be healthy for my kid and can get to…
