way to go  

Thanks, Tim. I wish I could keep it together for a consistent loss and stop fucking up. We'll see.  

I know the feeling of wishing I could keep it together DP. 

What do you think is getting in your way? I had success once I realized I was making food central to everything I do and decided to make food the “side dish” to my life. This has kept me from binge eating. Maybe something similar is true for you. I hope you figure out what’s in your way. Only then can you remove it.❤️❤️ 

I never did have a ‘consistent’ loss. I think some of us just don’t. My body likes to keep me on my toes with surprise losses and gains lol. 

@peeperjj same 🙋🏾‍♀️, my body has always loved to woosh, now I've just settled that I have to keep doing the best I can and wait on the woosh💫 

Danana- calories are getting in my way. I consistently lose when I maintain a calorie deficit. I mean some days are gains but a general, easy downward trend. I went from eating 1800 calories on average to 2300-2400 daily and it has kept me in maintenance. I don't want to maintain here but I'm not sure why I just can't eat less. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I'd like to be 170 or less by my wedding anniversary in October. For most that would be a goal to focus on...for me, just writing it can guarantee I self sabotage and hit 200. Just ridiculous. Unsure what changed after kicking ass for so long but I want to get back to it. We'll see.  

You can do this... you have and you will 

Thanks, pauladeborah, for the vote of confidence.  

Everyone is different. I suggest that you return to the calorie goal that works for you. It would be foolish for me to try to eat as many calories as your husband. Everybody has a number, CICO... 

You’ll turn it around!🥰 

❤️ Have a good evening, Princess!  

John, I know! I just don't know why it was so easy before and lately I'm eating and eating. 😢 having a hard time limiting myself.  

Hey, Melissa. Pretty nice evening. Took a long walk and saw a lot of deer, some fat groundhogs, geese. Lots of animals tonight. Nature filled.  

Maybe you need a break? I do well with limiting then back to maintaining then limiting etc. Maybe your brain needs the break sort of thing. Just an idea..  

Peeper- I've been on a break. 😆 the scale doesn't lie. I just need to be consistent. No more vacations scheduled. Nothing that can derail me except myself. It'll happen. I'm still determined. 💪🏼🤸 

In that case get back at it! 💪 BTW is your profile picture you or your daughter? Since it’s small I can’t tell but she looks really young but not young enough for your daughter? I’d say 20’s and your daughter is around the age of my kiddos...  

Lol peeper... Profile pic is me with sunlight washing away any wrinkles I may have like a natural filter. 😉😆 so I said heck yeah...I'll pretend this is my everyday face.  

Lol. You look absolutely beautiful in it! I’d use it too! In fact I may try the same but the sunlight here doesn’t remove my wrinkles in pics :/.  

There you go. Nice drop!!!
