I see ads for hypnosis for weight loss or smoking cessation...I'm wondering if anyone here has ever tried this for weight loss and how did it go?
I know some people casually who do this for a living - wonderful people. I used to listen to Paul McKenna on youtube and his tapes all the time, it was very helpful. Especially for focus and… read more
Hi...I'm wondering how frequently I should be weighing myself...and does it matter if it's morning or night?...
Monthly. The first Monday of each new month. Weigh and measure.
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.
Everyone would stick to their Lifestyle Change routine but at anytime, anyone that is doing the challenge with us can pop a question to keep us on our toes.
Examples could be:
Did you walk today? If so how much?
How many ounces of water have you drunk?
How many steps have you taken so far?
What is your pain scale today?
How are you emotionally feeling today?
(The last 2 questions relate a lot to our eating)
If we’re on point, then we’ll get messaged good job! Keep up the good work!

I have arthritis in my back that has been treated with injections. I've even had the nerve endings in the L3-L5 region in my back burned and had a cortisol shot in my s1 region. The swelling is gone, but not the pain. My knees have been left untreated. The pain gets unbearable at times, but my doctor only says lose weight. I've told her several times that I'm usually an active person, but pain makes me not want to be active. I need relief. Any suggestions. I've already considered… read more

Yes Thanksgiving is in November but we're supposed to be doing a LIFESTYLE CHANGE!! This would be a great time to get through temptation.
Does anyone want to try the challenge or add some ideas to it?
Thanks
Hi fedup15Granny!!
How are you doing? Welcome back! That's what we're all going to do....try!! 😊 It better to try than to quit!! Guess what? You're back and that means alot.
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
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
