From another Sara, no H…. I’ve been here since 2018 and have cheered you on from afar. It’s maddening to know what to do and feel powerless to do it (consistently). My profile picture is also 20 lbs away from the truth. 😑 I’m still cheering for you. ♥️

Always welcomed with open arms! I haven’t even stepped on a scale yet to assess the damage. That can wait a few more days😂

No need to be embarrassed. I over-fluffed too. Too much stress and too many temptations. We are both ready to de-fluff!

More power to you for being honest with yourself and with us. We are all in this together and each day, hour and even minute can be a struggle. New year is approaching which can be a good time for a reset. We are all in this together girl. 💜

You got this and you acknowledge it. This is so hard but you outlined all the reasons why you should lose the weight. I write down 3 goals every month and try to hit them to get to my goals. It doesn't always work but the key is just what you are doing here - keep trying, come back, go at it again maybe a different way. You will find the way that you eventually can sustain. It is hard and this is the place to post.

My profile picture is from when I lost 50 pounds around 2018. Need to lose 30 pounds to get back to that weight. I don't have pictures taken of me when I am this overweight! The 1st is this coming Monday. I'm setting a goal again of 1 pound a week even though it didn't work last year it still seems reasonable. I know measure 1 teaspoon for my coffee. It's sweet enough but it's either that or stop drinking coffee. It will take me about 20 more pounds at least to go down a pant size. At least this time of year sweat pants are fine to wear everywhere I go. You will succeed in 2024!

I now measure 1 teaspoon of sugar for my coffee. It's NOT sweet enough!

I think you’re a strong woman who just got a little off track. Many of us eat our emotions during the holidays and other stressed related incidents. I have to get back on track and your post motivated me to try again. Good luck! And thank you! 😊

it takes so much courage to put yourself out there, so great job! The best way to get results is with a community so you are doing the right and getting support. Easier said then done but try not to be to hard on yourself and build on small wins and know that we all are on a journey. What I'm working on which may help you to is being your own number 1 fan and coach! Positive talk! You got this!

Give yourself one goal today. Remind yourself of one blessing. And tell yourself one thing you LOVE about yourself. Do it today. Then do it again tomorrow. Remember your body is the housing for your mind and soul. Tend all of them. 🫶🏻 Roadblocks and detours happen. You are strong!

I gained 2-3 kg I had lost recently as well. Mainly due to the holidays and eating more baked goods and less exercise because everyone I did activities with was busy. Now to get back on track.

I support you and hope that you are able to start and stay on track! It's hard because it happens so frickin fast and takes so much work and effort to get back to where you want to be. But, the end result is worth the hard work. Your body will thank you. My one piece of advice is to set an end goal but also set mini goals. I find that easier to achieve. Reward yourself with non food items. You can do this..always remember that!

Don’t sweat it. We slip up, we do things we’re not happy with and we learn. Take one step at a time and focus on the positive changes you’re making instead of the steps you took to get to a place you’re unhappy.

I feel the same way but tell myself what I want for me, no one else, FOR ME. each day is a new start to get to where I want to be as my awesome weight. I'm rooting for YOU!

this is my first day on this app and I'm really struggling with weight loss and my weight makes me very insecure. I will start using this app tomorrow so that I start the new year off to a great start. my goal is to lose 15 pounds by the end of the year!

I know just how you feel, you just put my feelings out there precisely. But honey, dont ever be embarrassed here. We are all in the same boat that's why we're here. Some are further to reaching their goals than others, but we all have had the same feelings and share in the same struggles. I know you can do this. We are all doing this together. You got this!
