  • There are 201 marbles there, representing the total 201#s that my wife and I need to lose to get to our goals. 45# down between us and 156# to go!

You could have it in your bedroom or bathroom. Somewhere kids don’t often go…maybe?

Mandie

I love that you did a shared container to support each other and celebrate together!

Discipline. Trying to practice it. I have control. I choose.

Sharing a win: my fiancé and I were visiting family for the holidays so we had a 23hr drive right after the new year back to where we live, which we've learned to split into 4 days. We've done the trip multiple times and it's devolved into a total fast food, gas station snacks, energy drinks bonanza. BUT this time I planned ahead...he did his thing (and I'm fine with that), but I got ZERO take out or snacks or drinks, I did one grocery store stop and that allowed me to stick to my plan in the car and at the hotels. It not only showed on the scale but helped with my anxiety (and my patience lol). Feeling proud :)

Thank you all so much for the support!!! Kristine, I eat plant-based so I got tabouleh, hummus, and whole wheat lebneh bread (1/2 a piece at a time) for dinner, a few apples and 1/2 salted Pistachios for a snack if needed, and cut pineapple, no sugar added granola, vegan unsweetened yogurt for breakfast, then no-cow protein bars and OWYN protein shakes for the car (these last two were new to me and VERY chalky, I liked the one Misfits bar I had on hand a lot more but, hey, they all did the job to curb hunger while driving). Oh and Herbal tea :)

Good job!

Travel is always hard. You did it!

  • New dinner idea tonight! Portabella/Avocado tacos with a lime cabbage slaw. I subbed the corn tortillas for keto low calorie street tacos. They were really good!

  • Ok, finally got my initial weigh in done!

    I am sitting down to eat and updating my goal tracker to incorporate both this DietBet and the others I have joined.

    The goals I have for these DietBets include kicking off my 40s (birthday is on Thursday) in a healthy way, getting back into running shape for a half marathon in April and be ready for both my own PhD graduation in August and my little sister’s wedding in October.

Hi Karen, it comes from a website called debtfreetrackers .com
They have so many different kinds of trackers to use. I think I have 4 of them printed off right now for a variety of my goals.

  • This is why I always fail - I’ve been tracking my calories and protein and carbs since January 1st. Getting 10,000 steps, playing Just Dance (it’s what I can do to move my body with kids). Going to sleep when my kids do to get enough rest.

    Well, I woke up today sooo hungry and so excited to weigh in… I gained 2lbs 😑 Makes me want to jump off the wagon today and just eat what I want. Trying to power through 😭

Everyone is different. Eat less carbs..no fast food less food perhaps. It could be hormones. Etc.. just try different healthy options and exercises. Please, don’t give up…

It happens! Hang tight you may need to adjust macros or make sure you weigh consistently!

  • I know this is not a normal post, but I had recently lost my 12 year old dog late Saturday/early Sunday morning. I got him the day after my 18th birthday as a puppy, he was my first dog, and was the absolutely best friend I ever had. It’s been really hard.

    I’ve been in this state of not wanting to eat, or wanting to overeat comfort foods, I’ve also been sick for the last few days, nauseous and throwing up. I almost feel defeated at this DietBet because I’m just upset and have no motivation to do anything.

  • My favorite way to track my loss. This is my personal goal for the next 6 months (more than my dietbet goal). I'm off to a great start!

  • Got some beautiful purple cauliflower from the Amish Market. It’s so deliciously sweet. Plus it’s such a fun color
