Hey there friends
I dont know if anyone is still in this group, or checking back, but I'm still on this journey and still have a 100lb end goal. I've been back on track now for 85 days, and am 34lbs down, but I'm struggling always. Its tough, and frustrating and I get so sad sometimes about food or failures or that it just doenst seem to…

When the work finally starts to pay off....but no one notices
This is a question for people who (like me) have a lot to lose (like over 100 a lot to lose). I've started and re-started and re-started my weight loss over and over and over for years. At the beginning of this year (2019) I started fresh again at the highest I had ever been; and as of today I am 25 pounds down! I'm…

Cheat Day Regrets
Went super overboard yesterday while I was off and home by myself. I just couldn't stop with the junk food and snacks and now (at work and feeling oh so regretful) I feel sick to my stomach (no surprises there). Anyone else go a a little crazy this holiday weekend...I can't be the only one! #regrets #backontrack

anyone still here?
I have a lot to lose, and I've been in this group for a long time, but I never see any posts. If there are any people out there with more than 100lbs to lose, I could use friends :)

Dear Will Power,
Where have you been? I've been looking for you these past 27 years or so, I went to all the regular spots: the gym, the pool, the magazine cover with that hott girl I wish I looked like, but you were never there? I asked myself over and over why you had decided to abandon me, but then I realized it was me who's been hiding…

Need Vegetarian ideas
Starting tomorrow my boyfriend and I are giving our healthy lifestyle and weight loss journey a boost and for the first 30 days of the new year we are going totally plant based, no processed foods and hopefully less processed starches (gonna try to stay away from pasta unless it's homemade!). We've been trying to get…

Staying motivated when your sick
I've been sick since Thrusday and it's been really tough to stick to my routine these past few days. My exercise has started to slip, and my calorie counting has gone to the dogs because I just don't feel well. Not a total derail, but I just feel so unmotivated. My question, how do you combat these lethargic feelings when…

Toning moisturizers?
I'm no where close to the end of my weight loss, I really just got back on track, but I've started losing, and I'm concerned about loose skin? I have always been pretty diligent with moisturizing my skin, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a good skin toning moisturizer? I've seen some in the stores, but they're not…

How do you stay motivated?
I've been logging for 22 days straight (my longest streak so far!). Not everyday has been good, in fact I've had a lot of days that I've gone over my calorie goal. However, when I started logging again I told myself that once I hit 20 days I'd start exercising...well I did that, and now I have a new goal. Once I hit 40…

Walking to Get Fit/For A Good Cause
This October I am participating in a Walk to End Alzheimer's. It is a two mile walk, not a race, but I have been gearing up for it all the same. Late last year my family lost its matriarch, my Grandmother after a decade long fight with this disease. My father and his siblings decided to make a donation to our family church…

Eating Well Is Hard
I have such a hard time staying within my calorie goal, daily. I'm not sure what's wrong with me besides just loving food, but I think I need some help...Does anyone have any strategies they use to just cut off once they've had enough. It's so hard and even when I don't mean to I eat to the point of overfull so often...I…

IF-intermitent fasting
I have know a few people this has worked for, and I start it yesterday. I'm doing a 16/8-fasting for 16 hours, then an 8 hour window where I can eat. My window is from 12 noon -8pm, and I just had a question to pose to anyone who does/has done this. In that Eating Window, is the idea to eat less calories than you are…

TACO MAC
Taco Mac (ok, so I'm not claiming it's the heathiest, especially if you go with the full fat versions of all the incredients, but it is delicious, and quick!) 1 packet Taco Seasoning (any will do) 1lb ground beef (or turkey) 1 box elbow Macaroni (really any small pasta will be fine) 1 jar plain tomato sauce 2 tbsp butter…

Daily Burn
Does anyone use Daily Burn? I've been seeing a lot of commercials, and while I have a gym membership, a lot of days I just end up either going for a walk, or playing a Dance game on my Wii and doing some strength training at home, so I thought it might be a good alternative. Thoughts? Thanks so much! :smile:

Fun Challenge
Can you name 7 professional sports teams that do not have an 'S' in the name? (this is not a trick question, I had this asked to me as a bet at a bar...I won, and got a free drink!) :drinker:

Keep From Eating at Night
I've been having such trouble the past week or so. I will do amazing all day, then I'll get home and just be so hungry, I feel like once I start eating I just can't stop? Does anyone else have this problem? I've been trying to contain it, and I don't know if it's just because I'm bored, or if it's becasue I'm acutally just…

Changed my goals, and now I'm supposed to eat more?
I changed my goals to reflect that I want to lose about 10 more lbs than I had originally said, and I havent been working out as much, so I changed my workout goal to reflect that...and somehow, I'm supposed to eat more than I was? Does that make sense to anyone?
