feeling disheartened.
I met this all the month's goals so far, including this upcoming one, but you certainly can't tell by looking at me.
Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? As in, I should notice changes in my body rather than the scale?
I swear I only lost fat from my butt and boobs 😓

Hi Mandy, as josh said “we are our worst critic.” Today I hit my 50 lb milestone. I look in the mirror naked and I still see FAT everywhere. However, I look at pre-weight loss pictures of me and I see dramatic changes. Our bodies don’t lose fat exactly where we want them to but, the fat is coming off everywhere we just focus on those trouble spots more. I’ve always had a big ass and thighs even when I was thin, that’s where my fat likes to go. My stomach and waist (be it larger, because I’m so overweight) were never a problem. The fat I have lost came off my waist and stomach more obviously the my ass and thighs, but I know I’ve lost inches here too, because I measured my body. I just don’t see it. If you haven’t yet, measure yourself now and once a month remeasure all the areas of your body and you’ll see it’s all coming off, just more in some areas then others. You’re doing it and that’s what’s important!

If you want to change your body composition you need to lift weights. That’s how we change our shape. And as we loss weight we get extra skin and that sometimes “looks worse” because it hangs there.
Try to focus on how you feel. Do you have more energy? Can you do more without huffing and puffing. I know it can be hard but try to focus on your health rather than how you look

That looks fantastic! I cooked salmon tonight as well, but I didn't do nearly as great a job at plating and presentation as you have done.

I just cooked up some Brussels sprouts with rosemary and ate those out of a bowl with my salmon. :grin:

Looks delish!

Any ideas for healthy sweet snack? I'm getting tired of medjool dates and the cravings for sweet things are really getting to me!

Hey all, I’ve been working out and eating healthier. My stomach is starting to get some looser skin which is great, but what are the best things you’ve found to help with that?

I have heard the autophagy from intermittent fasting helps.

Weights along the way goes a long way! As well as the type of food your eating. My friend and I both lost 100+lbs and she has much more loss skin than I do. I have very minimal and I’ve had 2 kids, she hasn’t had any.
I believe that because of what we ate and I worked out which includes weights and she didn’t work out.

  • Non-scale victory - it is small, but I feel like reinforcing the behavior:

    We get a lot of free food at work (usually sweets). Today was Chipotle (giant burritos). Think 800 calories. There was a tofu & beans one specially ordered for me! I said thank you and ate HALF.

This morning I started a new routine and the goal is to add more time and weights to it. I went for a 20 minute walk, did 6 minute Denise Austin yoga video and 25 squats. Food plan is good and I made weight for last years transformer! Lost 10 pounds since Christmas too! ♥♥

  • Hey DietBet Fam! Since there are thousands of new players since we shared this information last - and we've surpassed 3,000 players! - I thought I would again share the 2024 Make the New Year Magic Transformer FAQs with you! It's has everything from information about each weigh-in to the list of bonus prizes! Nearly any questions you may have should be there. If it isn't, and you're still wondering feel free to ask here!

    Another thing is that new players can join up until Day 14 - so invite your friends! It's so much fun when we have more support and more conversation and help in this game!

    Last, I hope you feel so amazing about being here. You've taken a big step and made a commitment that is going to be a game changer! This game is historically full of a lot of winners who meet their goals, which is amazing!! I hope each and every one of you will meet and exceed any goals you have!

    Since we're taking about asking questions and inviting friends for more support, I'd love to know... What kind of support are you looking for?

Accountability! I made it a point to do the membership so as to push myself to do weekly check-ins for myself and not just wait til the end .

Kat L.

I hope to be inspired by fellow players, and have folks interact with me as well. The accountability is great, but the unique part of a game is we have so many people to engage with!

So, I'll be commenting and liking a lot of players' posts - and hope you all will too!

  • Salad with ginger dressing and side of carrots with non fat Greek yogurt dip. I did add chicken for protein after I took the picture. I’m also tracking my Apple Watch stats in my planner for added accountability!

    Edited to add: Not sure why the pic is blurry!

What kinda planner I'm looking to get one to track everything

Annie

Kary and Rosella, this planner is called “PlanBold Planner” and it’s has a traditional weekly planning pages, then two pages after each week to track meals, exercise, grocery list in the notes, and more. It’s a game changer! It actually 20% off right now, and I have a 10% additional code in my instagram profile, if you want to check it out more (I have lots of videos of planners on my page)!
