20 lbs lost after baby #3
I finally hit the 20 lb mark after baby #3. Been making small lifestyle changes like making bento box salads, mindful eating, and being part of an accountability group through my husband's work. I still would like to lose 10 lbs (including the belly pooch) and tone some, but this dress on the left is one size too small…

B&As less than 10 lbs
Let's see before and after's that are less than 10 pounds. We tend to think that before and Afters need to be at our goal weight, but we can see a difference even less than 10 pounds in. Here is a picture of me at -6 pounds.

8 weeks to lose 4lbs, but gained 2.5 lbs in 1 week?!
So after 8 weeks of intensely watching my diet and trying to exercise 4-5 days a week, I lost 4 lbs. That corresponds to losing 0.5 lbs/week, which I'm fine with because it means my weight loss was steady and hopefully long-lasting.

Half a Pound in 3 Weeks?!
So about a month ago, I really upped my diet and workout routine in efforts to successfully lose weight for health reasons. I lost one pound the first week, down to 156.0.

Any Type 1 Diabetics Here?
Hey, I'm not new to MFP but new to the boards. I was wondering if there were any other T1s out there trying to lose weight or have lost weight? I am on the MM 522 pump and a Dexcom CGM. I feel like we struggle a little more to lose weight because we have to deal with lows that eat up our caloric intake. And as we lose…

So one of my problems is bored snacking, and in attempts to remedy that I am looking for more "free foods". Right now, I am obsessed with drinking green tea throughout the day, and it's also been shown to help burn fat. What are some of your free foods?
