Weight Gain After Hysterectomy _ Anyone Else?
Hi everyone, I'm really really struggling. Quick back story: Back in 2015 I changed my lifestyle and lost 40 pounds with portion control, picking better foods and being more active. Learned how to maintain that and did that for a year and a half. Decided I wanted to lose some more, lost another 10 pounds and kept that off…

One year later_same weight
These pictures are one year apart. The left is last year and the right is today. I am the same EXACT weight in both pictures. The difference... I've been strength training the past few months. Kettlebell workouts, jogging and I have recently started HIIT videos. My chipmunk cheeks have turned into muscle in my legs.…

Not Sure where I fit in
So a little about me. I started my journey in December of 2015. SW: 223 CW 183 H: 5'6 Age: 35 I'm super happy with what I've done so far. It's a slow process for me since I like to enjoy my weekends too much and too often. That being said I've pretty much been the same weight since October of last year. I've gone up a few…

Sworkit. Does anyone here use it?
Hi everyone! I'm really struggling with knowing I need to do strength training but too darn lazy to get out and do it. Thought maybe if I started with 5-10 minutes at home it might be enough to get me going. A friend suggested Sworkit. Anyone have thoughts or suggestions on how they started down this path?

Weekend Sabotage
The struggle is real. Monday through Friday at work is very scheduled and routine which makes good choices very easy to plan out and make. Weekends come with freedom and an open itinerary and which makes BAD choices very easy to make. I will loose my scheduled 2 pounds through the week and gain them back on the weekend…

90 Days and 20 Pounds!
Hi everyone, I hit 90 days and 20 pounds gone this week! This is a small victory with a long road still ahead of me. I think my biggest challenge is the weekends with social settings based all around food. I end up gaining back half or more of what I lost during the week.. 2 steps forward, one step back. But that's…

Calorie Calculator
How accurate is the exercise calorie calculator on here? I use my indoor bike a lot and was shocked at how many calories it said I burned, so I checked the figures on a few websites and found it pretty close with weight, distance and how long factored in. Today I'm moving lots of boxes at work, I've been at it for an hour…
