Basically the title. I use MFP. But nothing motivates me like weighing in and seeing progress or seeing some sort of visual. I'm wondering if there's an app that uses any sort of cool visual or countdown or "pounds to go" or a time estimate to goal or something fun. Anything like this anyone uses? Thanks!
Me: 5'8", 20lbs to first goal, 27 to ultimate mega-goal!
I've been reading that dairy intolerance could cause stalls in weight loss and I've been struggling for a year to lose the last ten. I was wondering if all else being equal, anyone has tried this and had success? I know dairy can be insulinogenic as well.
I'm so happy, I lost 40lbs since the middle of Dec. This is impressive enough, but I also made it despite Christmas (1), New Years (2), a breakup (3), 21st birthday (4), and a very lonely Valentines Day (5). Christmas was really tough because I was trying not to tell anyone I was having to lose weight. I still have another 40 to go, but it is the start I really needed. And for anyone worried, everything is doc. monitored with weekly dietitian visits. I love this forum, and the flair thing makes every 5lbs its own victory.
So I started C25K this past week. The first day left me so sore the next few days, but the second day was fine. Today was day three, and at the end of the fifth running minute my right side started hurting, between my ribs and hip. I'm female, so if I were to put my hand on my waist and go down and toward the center, that's the spot.
I had this same problem a few years ago, but it was on the opposite side, if I recall. It feels better if I put pressure on it, but not completely.
Any idea what this is? Is it something I need to worry about or should I just push through it?
Hey guys!
Quick post before I run off to work for two nights - then the weekend off woo! We're at humpday! I know that means nothing to me, but some of you work M-F so YAY haha.
How do you avoid office/work place snacking/eating?
(This is especially bad for nurses :P)
And! How was your Wednesday?
I've got some serious weight to lose and I buy healthy foods, plan to eat them, but then, in an instant, I'll be shoving sweets in my mouth. I feel like I have no self control and it is relentlessly frustrating. Weight loss for me has been 1 step forward, 2 waffles back. I don't use any apps or food journaling, which I've heard can be helpful. Are there any other tips to help prevent self-sabotage and finally achieve real, serious weight loss for good?
I am a bath addict I shamefully spend so much money on a single bath just topping up the hot water because I spend hours in there watching Netflix. I've always just filled my bath up halfway and then my body displaced the rest but now I have to almost fill it right up before I get in or I'm sitting in a puddle. It's really weird and I still forget and fill it up halfway every time and then have to top it up once I get in. It's a good feeling but it's also a bit of a NSL because it's costing me a fortune in water and gas charges! Worth it though!
