Hi everyone! I’m really struggling today. Been working a lot lately and even though I’m doing okay on my progress, I’m feeling very run down. Ended up eating all my calories and it’s not even dinner yet. What do you guys do to refocus during difficult times?

I agree with Rose! When people see my plate, and how much I have, my husband will automatically say, "it's volume eating." lol

Keith A.

Lots of great suggestions here - you can do it!

  • Today has been a really awful day. I mean REALLY awful!

    I'm so motivated to lose weight right now, but my body seems to be fighting me. I thought I was getting to the point where I could start on some serious walking leading to getting back on my bicycle sometime this spring. But the knee I had replaced last June has "exploded" in pain and pressure on each of the last two days, to the point where I can barely walk. I've had to go back to using a cane for stability this evening, and getting in and out of a car is a painful ordeal. Orthopedist appt. made for this Friday.

    On top of that, the heart issue I thought I was on top of kicked back in today, perhaps from all the pain. I'm supposed to be having a cardiologist call to make an appointment but it hasn't happened yet, so I will chase that down tomorrow.

    I'm so frustrated!

    But...there is good news. Before the weight loss began in January, this would have been an evening where I would have tried to drown my frustration in unhealthy foods, looking for soul-less flavor to try to cheer me up.

    But not today. I just ate my last snack of the day, and I'm still 300 calories under my goal! I needed this victory, but I was so busy feeling sorry for myself that I didn't see it until just a few minutes ago.

    Healthy habits can move us forward, and they can sustain us when we fall backwards. I want comfort, but not in food that will do me no good.

    Thanks for letting me vent. Hopefully tomorrow goes better than today, but if it doesn't, I still won't turn to food to comfort my pain. I'm too good for that!

Sorry to hear about these complications Keith. So proud of you for getting back to the straight and narrow despite adversity!!

Sending all the positive vibes your way! I hope they are able to get you fixed back up quickly. In the meantime, nutrition is what you can control. Maybe try some upper body exercises while sitting for activity? Keep a positive attitude. I can see how much you inspire others here, let us lift you up in support too!

Prioritize protein over basically everyone other macronutrient. It really does help with hunger and muscle retention.

I’ve finally started to walk every day. Some days it is 3.5 miles and others it is 1 mile. I have to keep moving and just don’t see the scale move unless I am.

I have 6.8 pounds to go to reach my goal. This may be a long two weeks!

Never give up - you can do this!

That's just a couple of "whooshes" away from your goal. You will make it!

This is the latest I've ever joined a bet, however that just means I really need to remain focused and disciplined as there is no room for error! I'm going to Disney at the end of the month so my goal is to work on getting my steps in every day so I am prepared for all the walking there. Good luck to everyone!

Go get ‘em! Love Disney walking!

Alicia R.

Right! My goal is similar. I'm going to kings island this summer and I just had my first baby in November. I gained A LOT. And I'm now 274 and I started at 284 on this Kickstarter. I'm unsure I can even fit on the rides anymore. So I'm working super hard to fit and walk.

I like that he's no-nonsense...just as we should be to ourselves instead of letting excuses derail our progress!

I want to buy the stickers to put all over for reminders haha!

Hi everyone!! I'm Mary. I promised myself I'd actively participate if I joined another DB challenge so here I am. A week in so I better start now. Lol

I've done several dietbets over the past few years. Rocked some and failed a few miserably but I'm not a quitter! Lol I have had some health issues and 4 surgeries over the past 15 months but I am ready to make my health and fitness a priority again. I am ready to feel better. I've been going to the gym and my endurance is improving quite a bit so that makes me happy. I still have a ways to go to get back to where I was when I stopped going to the gym for medical reasons but I'm getting there slowly.

My goal this week is to eat healthy food that doesn't upset my stomach (no cheese or lactose ugh) and to workout at least 4 days.

Have a great week all! We can do this!

Hahaha I love thst you included oreos. Haha my fav but I rarely buy them due to lack of self control.

I made the white chicken chili last night. So easy and my husband and I both enjoyed it.

I appreciate your recommendations. I love all of those meals and so does my family so that's a bonus! Lol

Rose L.

Remember nutrition over working out! It's great you want to do both but if you feel yourself not being able to keep up with both, nutrition is priority! It takes A LOT to out work a bad diet.
