I’ve been having a coffee after each meal for the past several months (decaf after dinner). This was to distract me from wanting alcohol and unhelpful foods. It worked well, and I’ve gotten away from those things. But I realized today that I’m having altogether 210 extra calories, and nearly the equivalent of added sugar in a can of soda- every day. I guess I just never added it up since I was still consistently losing a little at a time.

Today instead of dinner coffee I tried 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder in 8oz water with 2 stevia packets. That’s 10 calories, and bonus 2 grams of fiber. Is it as awesome as my coffee with 2 tablespoons of creamer? Nope. But it wasn’t bad, and I know I’m going to feel so much better without that added sugar. It’s pretty good with a peppermint tea bag too. Little adjustments add up. I’m excited to see if this makes a difference for me.

If you try it, be sure to continue to stir while you sip as it will settle at the bottom.

Lysh, I do 50/50! A half cup of each is a good amount and the carrots bulk it up nicely! I grate it ahead of time, but have found you can't grate it for more than a couple of days. The carrots seem to go bad quicker than I'd expected! Lesson learned the hard way once! lol!

Never feel bashful to put a scoop of protein powder in your coffee that fill you up to truly helps

  • Happy Friday, rockstars! Can you believe it? We've officially hit the halfway point of our DietBet challenge! High-fives all around for making it this far! Seriously, every single day of effort, every healthy choice, and every step you've taken truly counts.

    Now, while the scale is definitely one way to measure progress, let's talk about something even more awesome: those incredible Non-Scale Victories (NSVs)! These are often the biggest, most powerful, and most meaningful changes we experience. Maybe you're bouncing out of bed with more energy, your favorite jeans are fitting a little better, you're sleeping like a baby, or you just feel a boost in your overall confidence. Perhaps you've noticed you're actually craving healthy foods, or reaching for your water bottle has become second nature. These personal wins are a big deal, and we want to celebrate every single one of them! So, tell us: What's one non-scale victory you've noticed or achieved so far? Let's celebrate our amazing progress together!

Though the scales not moving much, I know I’m changing as I fit into an old suit jacket. I haven’t fit into years love it.

  • Alright, lovely people!

    Get ready to make some waves because it's time to talk about WATER! This often-underestimated powerhouse is truly a game-changer for your energy, metabolism, and even helping to curb those pesky hunger pangs. Ditching sugary drinks and empty calories for refreshing H2O is one of the easiest and most impactful swaps you can make on your health journey!

    Ready to become a hydration hero? Try infusing your water with fruit for a delicious twist, set a fun reminder on your phone, or grab a cool water bottle to keep by your side. Every sip adds up! What's your favorite way to make water more exciting, or how much water are you aiming for today? Let's hydrate like pros!

I make a new gallon of water every day put a little apple cider vinegar and some lemon juice and cucumbers and Yum Yum Yum. I usually have to make a 2nd gallon each day. Sometimes I use strawberries.

I feel really good with 128-160oz. I like it best with ice in the summer, but don’t usually add anything else. Mostly out of laziness. lol

So I haven’t been active in almost a year nor have I ate healthier in a while. I’m use to drinking Mountain Dew throughout the day and juice.

So my question I have is just by changing EVERYTHING I’ve already have seen a different. If I loss weight too fast will I be kicked out of the challenge.

I haven’t had soda in over a month, I’ve started walking around the hospital for my lunch, I’m working out 30mins a day.

  • Welcome, amazing people! Today's the day our DietBet game officially kicks off, and I am so incredibly excited to embark on this 4-week journey with each of you! This isn't just about the final weigh-in; it's about having fun, feeling great, and making real progress towards a healthier you. Get ready for a supportive, motivating, and incredibly rewarding experience!

    As we dive in, let's set some intentions. Think beyond the scale for a moment and consider one or two personal, realistic goals you're excited to achieve. Maybe it's aiming to drink more water daily, hitting a certain step count, or adding extra veggies to every meal. Little changes add up to big results! Briefly thinking about tracking your food, steps, or even your mood can be super helpful, too. So, let's start strong: share one small, achievable goal you're excited to work on this week! Let's make this game a huge success together!

I haven’t worked out in almost a year and just treated my body terrible. My goal this week is to find balance to eat better and pushing myself to walk on my lunch break and move my body for 30mins straight

I’m going to try to get my water intake up, and also start tracking my food in hopes that I can be more aware of what I’m fueling my body with.

I went on the scale this morning and was very disappointed to see that I was up .2lbs . I am counting my calories and have 1600-1800 calories a day .
Then I realized it should be water weight since I had high sodium food in the past 2 days and I am not use it !!!
Trying not to be disappointed and keep going . I do feel smaller …

Thank you :blush:

Keep it up and you will see the scale drop. Mine fluctuates too but I just hold steady with my nutrition and eventually it starts to move down.
