So, for me, ease of access is a BIG deal with my eating habits. So, when I get munchie veggies like green peppers or celery, I go ahead and cut/prep them before putting in fridge and make a low fat ranch dip with daisy low fat sour cream. That way, when I’m wanting to snack, it’s just as easy to grab those as it is chips. And I usually prefer the veggies.

  • Welcome everyone, I'm so happy you're here! My name is Jenn, I'll be your host!

    I like to do weekly challenges as part of our game, it helps to keep the game more interactive and motivating. You don't have to be a member to win a weekly challenge.

    The first challenge is: The Water Challenge!

    Here is the challenge if you want to participate:
    Drink at least 64 oz. of water a day, Thursday and Friday! (November 21st and November 22nd)

    Starting on Saturday there will be a post here, at the top of the game feed, for you to comment under if you complete the challenge. The deadline to report in is Saturday 10:00 PM Pacific Time. The prize drawing will be held on Saturday shortly after that, for the $10 cash prize. Each week the prize amount goes up!

    And one suggestion, but not part of the challenge: Please introduce yourself and share your goals! Let us know where you are on your weight loss/fitness journey, and what your short/long term goals are! Just for fun let us know where you are from. I live in Utah.

    Let's get going!!!

I’m trying really hard to lose weight without falling into a disordered eating cycle or unsustainable exercise routine.
I’m not losing for vanity’s sake but bc of my back.
I also have 3 endocrine disorders right now, all of which make weight gain super easy and weight loss hard.
I’m having surgery to remove a tumor on one adrenal gland that has been causing Cushing’s syndrome, I have PCOS, and am recently on medication for hypothyroidism. And I have a herniated disc that need operating on but I have to drop some of this weight first.
I need a routine that isn’t hard to keep up, that isn’t monotonous, and a diet that isn’t restrictive in nature to avoid falling into an eating disorder. Encouragement and gentle advice is welcome. 😊

I’ve also been struggling with weight loss. 2 surgeries in the last year (foot and a hysterectomy) and right now trying to get my asthma under control makes it difficult to be consistent and all the sitting and not moving has me at my heaviest ever and it has to stop! As I told my husband, I’m tired of being tired!
