Emotional Eating Support
I'm hoping there are a few people out there that are in the same boat I am: realizing that counting calories is not the answer at this time. The underlying problem is that food is a reward for us and not "food is fuel". I've done the dieting thing. I've done IF, CICO, Keto, etc etc. I know the tricks and science. The…

Love Anyway
Food is Fuel Rest your Mind Re-focus on Importance *Love Anyway* Many of us are here to give and to receive support. I've lost relationships over the years by retreating into comfort and normal, and yet: I find joy in support of others. Appreciation of others and seeing how that improves their lives. Inspiring to succeed.…

Looking For Like Minded Friends

Body measurement tracker and forecaster
If anyone is interested, I developed a simple excel sheet for tracking body composition. You need a scale, a way to measure body fat (doesn't have to be super accurate!), and a fabric tape measure. It projects growth, signals you when you're reaching a goal based on body fat percentage (I don't believe in goals based on…

Finally Got This
Hey all! Hope your own health journeys are going well! It’s my first time posting, but I’ve been on this app for 3 years. The name is Tim. Over the last 10 years I’ve been on a long journey of yo-yo failures in diets. Overall, it’s been a good ride. I started at 230lb and am now holding steady around 180 and about 14%BF.…
