On track. Down 4.2 over 4 weeks. Not going to imagine my weight or scale being different at 9000+ft elevation 
Just going to March on ahead

Hello Binx
I do feel your struggle as well and have to constantly tell my mind that i cant just casually drink as for me that leads to a full blown daily binge in a blunk of an eye. The weight also piles on with no motivation for excercise. Dont focus on the amount of weight tou have to lose. Not drinking, adding good habits like some daily movement, healthy eating and try not eating close to bed time. Your weight will fall off as im hopeful for. Dont give up hope - this may take weeks or months but it will happen. Stay positive!

Great to have on this thread! I also have quite a bit of weight to lose. Seems like quitting one addiction (drugs and alcohol), caused my eating to get worse (i have been working on stopping the binge eating and being hyperfocused on food). But we can do it one day at a time like anything else

First monday of the month and wanted to do a weigh in at 228lb. I usually would weigh myself weekly but am finding that my body fluctuates too much and so the number on the scale can disappoint me and make me lose my motivation. This weeks goal is to exercise 5x a week like i used to before i had my 2 week ābreakā and i will be focused on having a slight calorie deficit to help me reach my goal of 180lb. I have no real set date of weigh id like to reach my goal and i dont even know if thats the final weight that will make me feel comfortable and healthy. In the past 180lb made me quite fit and was a reasonable weight for my height and build but im also older and have had a child so that may play a role in what my final weight will be. We will see

Thanks everyone for the welcome, Iām so glad to be be here and with you all 
@Butterflymoonwoman I think Iām in a similar boat to you, Iām not even sure where my body would be happy with in terms of weight. I have had four kids (two arenāt kids anymore!) And I will be 44 soon. I also think Iām peri-menopausal, so heading into a time when we gain weight 
I havenāt been trying to lose weight recently, but when I do, I donāt calorie count. I have had a lot of success with a blend of healthy keto with intermittent fasting. I should be eating this way anyway, as Iām pre-diabetic.
Should we do a weekly or fortnightly weigh in to keep us accountable? I feel like I need something goal focused to keep motivated
