Fast weightloss isn’t usually sustainable. Be patient with yourself. Gage your weightloss by the fit of your clothes. The scale fluctuates and can be a real hinderance for your mindset Some like… read more
I don’t weigh daily because my weight fluctuates. I go by how my clothes fit. Right now my pants are just a tad looser but my blouses are really loose. I recommend going by how your clothes fit
I was doing so well with my weight loss. Actually loss 40+ pounds with nothing but the gym and food regulation. Then a series of events took place that made it impossible to continue my three day a week routine. Yes my family makes sure that I have a car available on Tuesdays and Thursdays but what they don't understand is that because those are the only days I have the car, all of my appointments etc must be scheduled on those days so I can't get back to my class. I am so very discouraged. It… read more

I am having a hard time just finding the energy and motivation to even start anything. I know what I need to do, i make the plan to do it but then just can't bring myself to get moving. It's like I talk myself out of it before I even get started.
Put your music on every morning.
I've had issues with arch and heel pain since I was 150lbs and about 31-32% body fat. While I wasn't obese, I was overweight then. I'm currently 170lbs and 34-35% body fat according to calipers. I'm considered obese. I was 182lbs and 36% body fat back in early Febuary. Due to my low arches on my feet, if I stand for a long period of time, I get sharp and stabbing pain in my arches, heels, balls of my feet, and sometimes it extends to my knees and shins. In 2020- early 2022, it only did so in my… read more
Thank you so much for the suggestions! I was considering getting some insole supports for my shoes, as I always wear gym shoes everyday. I honestly think the issue is because of my lower arches, but… read more
Do you approach holistic remedies? How about exercise or chores when you are so stiff and in so much pain ? Do you have any energy at all? Or does the weather makes your condition with Osteoarthritis worst ? Have you have any type of surgery for Osteoarthritis? How long was the time to took to recuperate from all that ? Has surgery make you better or do you feel worst that before surgery
I take moloxicam 1x day started trying to do 200 steps 2x day, 100 steps was my starting point. I plan on this for 1 to 2 weeks then will add more steps. I hope the weather warms up, then will start… read more
I eat when I am bored, I eat when I am tired, I eat when I am frustrated. I am constantly eating for reasons other than hunger. How do I stop? It's like it just slips under my radar and next thing I know, I have polished off a whole pie, or cookies or bag of potato chips.
When you find the answer please tell me
People always think that because you're overweight that means you overeat. My doctor has actually told me that I need to eat more, but I don't normally have an appetite. I need meal suggestions to help increase my food intake. What can I do? Eating when I'm not hungry makes me nauseous, and my meds suggest I eat.
I like the protein cheese, nut snacks are good for that. wheni worked i would set an alarm for 2-3 hours and eat one of the small snacks. it helps stay off the blood sugar hills and vally's.
I work part time at a plus size store (Hot Topics baby company), so I get a 40% discount. Ross Dress for Less sometimes has some decent stuff, and JCPenney sometimes has killer clearance. I also… read more
