@bubble5 Thank you, that's reassuring! I was pretty uh... not grounded and very impractical when I tried losing weight the first time and it didn't stick. Hoping I've learned to do better over the last five years!

@bubble5 Yeah... without going into too much gory detail, among other abuses, my parents implemented chronic starvation/force-feeding cycles, and I've definitely never recovered lol. Working on the therapeutic side of things, don't worry, but still need to get physically healthier in the...

@lmaturin2013 It does, actually help... I sometimes feel like it's easy for people who always stay in a healthier range... learning it's a struggle for everyone else is actually kinda comforting lol... I think I really need to think about what foods I cant live without and what the calories...

@onelovejenn Well, I'm trying to balance lol... glad it's working so far! It'll probably be q few years for me to get to q moderately healthy weight, and I keep conflating this time with when I tried losing ~5 years ago and regained a ton and then some... so... yeah... just begging people to...

@onelovejenn Oh, I'm bad at wording lol... I'm not plateauing! I'm actually still losing rather quickly (though slower than at the start, obviously) When I said flagging I meant... mentally/emotionally I guess? Like... starting to get frustrated because it feels so interminably loooong. And...

@tmac77 Thank you! I'm trying to up my step count, so I can do the walking thing lol And thanks for the shopping tips! I genuinely suck at adulting 🙃 I don't kn9w how to shop at all lol

@miller123 Thank you! I'm actually thinking of doing a longer maintenance at around 165, so this is especially useful! And sounds sustainable! Definitely going to play around with these suggestions in my longer-term plan! I'm the same way with eating really similar each day, so maybe I could...

@leachim7 Oh wow, thank you so much for all the detail! It's especially helpful seeing how you felt on various days/times! And I used to split 50/50 with my daughter, who's much taller and has a higher limit... maybe we will do the 1/3 thing too 😆 I also appreciate the clarification on...

@eternalbliss Thank you 😊 It does help!! I'm still counting calories right now, but I'm just trying to envision how a day would look at "normal" or "healthy"... And typically we don't think of food in numbers, so hearing the meals described really helps me conceptualize!! Also your meals...

@dawn16 Oh this is very helpful, thank you! It especially helps seeing the don't eats and the liquids too! Also maybe I will go steal some hello fresh recipes too 😆

@dawn16 Thank you!! I'm going to go steal all your replies for my notes too! 📝 ❤

@deror Thank you! Writing down all the tips in my lil notebook!!

@foxhound0123 Yeah I track on mfp .. started out as almost entirely carbs lol, but they're all consistently around 30% now

@foxhound0123 That sounds super helpful lol... I keep wishing some like... ultimate nutrition authority would just tell me exactly what to eat, like, I'd stick to it... I just keep changing stuff up, cause I'm not sure what's correct lol

@foxhound0123 Yeah lol I think I hit 100g of protein like... once in my whole life... and I was over calories that day lol And thank you! So... it sounds like you do simple standard breakfast/lunch and then mostly anything for dinner? That's kind of how I've been eating while losing... same...

@crosswalk1991 Thank you! Seeing the calorie totals next to the specific exercises really helps to visualize an average day!

@ocean_soul Yes, I'm working on the therapy side of things! Thank you for caring enough to make sure ❤ I did weight watchers once, many years ago... I'm too good at manipulating myself lol... "oh, eggs are 0 points? 13 egg omelet for breakfast!" Which would be great if I wasn't eating 5 meals...

@daniellehunt Thank you for the insight!! That salad sounds awesome!
