Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
I'm finally under 110 lbs! I'm slowly but surely reaching my goals!!!
It never worked for me either until I became diligent with tracking calories and always stay at or under my calorie goal (with a few cheat days a month of course!) and dedicated myself to exercise at least 2 hours a week.
Now I am slowly losing. I have lost 10.5 pounds as of this morning over a 4 month period. I am hoping to lose 9.5 more total. But I am not going to try and rush it. I just want to get through superbowl, valentines, my birthday, and my 2 week vacation without gaining too much and ruining all the effort i've put in over the last 4 months.

ok, I think Im out, not even tracking like the rest you. BEST TO ALL.
It's never too late to start!
I'm only tracking to keep myself within the calories MFP gave me for losing. I was never a tracker before. Now I know why I would never lose more than 3 lbs !
If you're not ready to go all out - then don't force it now. But you can start by making healthier choices.
What I did before starting this diet
- healthier choices
- less carbs, more veggies
- didn't eat past 8pm
- drank more water
Then I got serious and starting tracking. After 2 weeks of that, I started walking on the treadmill at the gym. Next week I'm adding weights in the mix.
1 step at a time.
I agree! Dont leave us! I am not tracking. I have just been trying to focus on what I am eating and making healthier choices. I am also just focused on the eating and not exercise right now. Any little change is something.

Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
I'm starving today but I guess that's because I did a 40 minute Jillian Michaels workout this morning and then had to shovel for an hour and a half.  This is not a good snow day. I haven't even baked anything... waiting for superbowl... I'm going to stuff my face with homemade cannolis and chocolate brownie cookies!!

Re: 2016 Weight Loss Challenge
ugh I gained 5 lbs! haven't been feeling well. i've been eating normally or less than normally and I am still doing my workouts so I have no idea why I am so heavy all of a sudden. Hoping it works itself out by the middle of the week!

Oh no. That can be very discouraging
did you have a lot of salt? Sometimes that can really make you retain. Also is AF on the horizon?
Just try to keep focused and eat healthy. Forget the scale for now and just think heathy

How do your clothes fit though? If you've been working out you could be building muscle and still look leaner. I'm 5' tall and 110 used to be my ideal usual weight (under that and I looked too skinny) and I'd get crazy if I gained 5lbs. But right now I am 117 but still in size 0s because I've been working out hardcore and totally changed my body so I try not to obsess over the numbers on the scale so much. As a pp mentioned, it also could just be bloat or AF

me too, it seems impossible. I know slow and steady but I always gain and have to re-lose first so I feel like I never get the chance to get that last 10 lbs!
