Weight loss is coming ok, 11 pounds off since surgery so I’m 254.
I am not eating much, a couple protein shakes a day. Greek yogurt. Cream of wheat. Soup without chunks. I am usually not physically hungry though sometimes in the middle of the night.
But oh, the head hunger. Here comes my addiction! I want a big damn burger. Fries. Fish and Chips. Noodles. Rice. Meat. Ha ha.
All in all though I am grateful to my new stomach which says No for me.

Well, I did some free weights, push-ups, and planks today. I have probably lost maybe a half pound since I started working out a few weeks ago, but I am skipping too many days. I have noticed that my weight training has defined my abdominal muscles a bit, but I have to flex them to even see them-lol. There’s just too much belly fat I am still dealing with. I need to be more consistent.
One of the issues I have is the benzo belly I am trying to work off…which if I don’t suck in my stomach at all, it looks like I am expecting…and I am a male so that doesn’t make sense…ahhhh! I don’t like benzo belly. I could cosplay as Santa, all I need is a longer beard hahaha
Ah…oh boy. I’m slowly making progress. Hopefully I can start doing 2 minute+ planks, I really need to strengthen those abdominal muscles because the abdomen not holding itself in place is hurting my back a fair bit.
I did do 2 reps of 45 second planks, so that’s not terrible, but I definitely have a lot of room for improvement
5 months clean and sober.
Checking in at 149 1/2lbs
Grateful to be a part of this Sober family
Together we can!!
Hopefully the honey and I will get a hike in despite the liquid sunshine .
May everyone feel good about themselves, be your own best friend!! 
201.2 weighing in a day late to be accountable.
Watch it there 
Way to go Maria, being health conscious, you won’t regret it!! My Dr and also Pema Chodron my guru both say the same thing: Everything is workable. Let’s go get it
203.4
Holiday weight.
I’m going with. “At least I’m sober!”
Just checked my weight. I don’t weigh myself often.
I was at 215
I am actually at 200 now…I guess the push-ups, planks, and free weights have been paying off.
I really want to work my legs more but my tendons have been killing me for a couple weeks. 
Goal: 185. Gonna take some time…
I used to be an online coach & had approx 1600-1700 clients before stopping in 2016. I’m helping a friend start his own business but I’m happy to help anyone using this app for free if you have any questions or want advice. I’m working on my own health again and getting back in shape. I’m currently 20lbs overweight & battling a couple of addictions so I totally understand the mental challenges as well as the physical. Good luck everyone.
@mteverest that’s a very generous offer you are amazing…
I had a whoosh on the scale this morning down to 250.4 which is nice maybe was the 30m of treadmill I did yesterday.
Nobody else worry about their weight, enjoy Christmas that’s what the new year is for.

I don’t know who weighs in on Christmas Day but I forgot to yesterday.
204.6 still rising. But not panicking.
Just still trying to be accountable.
D 160 alcohol
D 3 nicotine
Weigh in at 1.5 lbs over, I’ll gladly take it even if I still do have a belly : /
Merry Christmas sober fam!!
Please Universe don’t let me gain it all back. No alcohol is surely helping, losing the beer belly, Ha!
My sponsor is a great mentor for health, he deserves credit here too!
Go with what works but don’t give up.
Let’s gooo! As @Truckinmonster21 would say.
That is amazing!! Great work! 
I am hoping to be using this thread abit more often this year. I goal of mine is my health. And I have been slacking (this is an understatement) on eating better and exercise. Monday I usually weigh myself. I’m scared to even get on the scale honestly 
anyway, u all inspires me so much!!! Wow. Gets me motivated when I read all ur posts!
I keep forgetting to long my Monday weigh in.
Not too bad for after the Holidays.
202.0.
This may be a good time for me to get serious about my weight. I didn’t want to diet in my early days of quitting booze and then the holidays hit I initially lost a few pounds in those early days but those popped back on. I’d like to take 20 pounds off.
Well here I am,
From a record high of 273lbs and a health scare to now a fighting fit 227.2lbs down from 254lbs just 39 days ago when I started getting back to training. I have a clear goal of sub 187 before April in time to be at my fighting weight for the European Martial Arts qualification tournaments to start. I must qualify for the August Championship because I WILL regain my title!
Keep pushing me ladies and gents!!!
Weigh in day.
203.2
Weigh in day, 143.2 lbs Aiming for less than 140 and then work on building back some muscle. Looking forward for the lockdown to reopen the gym, walking and yoga for now.
Let’s have a great weekend junk food free. 
Down to 247.6 since my surgery but ending to smarten up my eating, no more sugar and fast food. Sure I can’t eat nearly as much as I used to, but I might be getting better results cooking my own food and eating enough protein.
Bought a couple bariatric cookbooks off Amazon so hope that will help.
After all, the gyms are closed for at least another couple of weeks
