I second this as I was feeling quite trim and strong and weighed myself and I’m up a couple of pounds again. Just had to have a word with myself about not allowing the scales to dictate how I feel about myself :joy:

Need something else to think about, soI decided to join in here and actually do something about all the weight I’ve gained lately, because I simply haven’t cared.

Going to change that from now on. Won’t be counting calories this time, but I will most definitely take action.

I’m up on 67 kg. And for me, that’s a lot (I use to be at 58)

So I’m starting here and now.

Quitting booze helped drop weight initially… then ive been consistent the last year/ year a half with intermittent fasting. Im down 40lbs (first pic 210 lbs) Comparison pic is june 2022- now. (15 lbs down) Slow and steady wins the race. Keep working and find what works for you. Everyone is different and beautiful no matter what. Keep fighting that good fight friends!

Hi Mischa, don’t worry about numbers. Look how you feel. I’m sure your body has changed.
For me it is about being active. I don’t struggle with losing weight initially but it’s hard for me to keep it. So this time I try to stay active.
My kids moved out and I’m working full time. So all I need to do is planning some workouts in my schedules. Sounds easy but still so hard to do sometimes. My weaker self often tells me that I don’t need to do anything. Anyway I got myself a treat ( new Garmin watch) downloaded the app and started a run-walk-run program. To be honest it’s definitely far more walking than running on my skills but anyway… I’ve been doing it for 3 weeks now and I really start to feel better. Body didn’t change much but I feel my energy level lifting up and that’s what I need to get further.
Sorry for the long reply but I just want to tell you not to be too hard on yourself. You’re doing great !
