I have not been on here for a while and i have out on most of what i lost in round 1.

I started off string and met my first round and since then i have really struggled. The last month i have put it back on.


I don't know if it's even possible now i think i am out of the game as i struggle to even lose 0.3 lb per week and to win now i think i need to lose 3.5 a week! My goal is to reach the final weigh in.

I have a few conditions that makes sense losing weight hard but the last month/6weeks i have well and truly gone off task and eaten really badly.

Anyone else in the same boat? Bizzarely since i have been doing badly i started going to the gym x2 a week.

Need to try and pull this back not sure how and if i can make it at all but i am going t try.

We're over halfway and I'm so glad I started when I did. My goals are still the same but my resolve is definitely a little slack for the last month or so.

Feeling quite low this week, zero energy and really just like I'm driving with the handbrake on.

How do you combat low mood or depression? I really wanted to get out for a walk each evening this week, but instead ended up comfort eating, staying up too late and sleeping through alarms...

I missed the last goal... and I just found out I've won a trip to Vegas from work! But it's from the 29th to 3rd so I don't know if I'll be able to weigh and if I can I'll probably have to deal with the 10lb gain from going to the States

Surpassed my weight goal for this month by a bit. Might be adding kickboxing to my Saturdays along with CrossFit 3 days a week. I did kickboxing for years and have been out for a while and miss it greatly. Ima have to install beast mood to get through because CrossFit already kicks my butt (I have only been doing that for 3 weeks) 💪

I'm a 15-pound sausage in a 10-pound casing today in my Friday work shirt. I don't think the shirt shrank either. The struggle is real. Getting back on track!

Ooof I finally faced the music and weighed myself this morning. I'm up 4lbs since last round. But I'm trying not to be hard on myself. I wasn't in the right headspace and was struggling. Thankfully, I think work will ease up from next week and I'll have more energy and less stress

There's a 91% increase in dying of cardiovascular disease with an 8:16 or less fasting schedule according to the American heart association! https://www.nbcnews.com/health/heart-health/intermittent-fasting-risk-cardiovascular-death-rcna143853

I am so frustrated (and depressed! I have a severe pinched nerve in my neck (over three weeks now) and can barely move. I have been to the chiropractor (another appointment Monday) but not getting any relief. I am always so healthy and strong, so I am not handling this very well. Any advice? Sorry to be so negative today.

Thanks for your support everyone. I took your advice and I'm going to focus on just making healthy choices, even if I don't have the energy to track, I don't want to comfort eat or binge. If I maintain and get back on the horse that's still a win. I'm going to try to slowly get back into it from this weekend on and I might lose the round but I'll still be doing what's best for my wellbeing. I've about 10lbs to win the game, 12lbs to be a healthy weight, and about 20lbs to my end goal. I wanted to get to my end goal by the end but it would just mean so much to be a healthy weight again and that's just a pound a week...

I'll be honest, I've been lurking mostly because the scale and inches aren't budging. And I've cut the sugar, upped the protein, stuck to the meal plan from the dietitian. And here we still are. It's been disheartening.

But I've just got back from a NSV--one that shows my body overall is improving.

I walked with the dog for an hour through alternating stretches of snow from shoveled pavement to 18 inches deep drifts. More snow than paved. And I did it without panting [there was deep breathing!] or feeling like my heart is about to beat out of my chest. And I guess I could even count the fact that I even thought doing it was a good idea as a mental NSV too
