When I just glanced at the photos, I thought I look no different from my January photos and I was a little irritated. But I looked closer, and I have lost a bit around my middle and (so weird) my feet are thinner.
Next challenge, I think I should take my measurements, to see if there are real differences each round.

Good idea. I took initial measurements but haven’t measured again because I haven’t made much progress.

Leona A.

Try the me360 app it uses a scan of your body front and side to get measurements

I’ve seen a lot about upping my protein for better weight loss. Can anyone recommend me a protein powder (and maybe a coffee/caramel/hazelnut type protein shake recipe) that would be good for losing weight?

I’ve started slowing down on my weight loss, and I just started my menstrual cycle so I’m super bloated! I think I’m still good for the weigh in, but I don’t want any surprises for my next weigh in!

I use Muscle Milk protein powder. I make a caramel espresso and put the powder in with the coffee.

Michaela

Fairlife chocolate protein drinks are my favourite!! They taste just like chocolate milk. You can buy them in packs from Costco (in individual bottles). A little pricey but fantastic for on the go!

I love that DietBet saves our weigh in photos. Of course, to look back on our progress… but my toddler would NOT stay out frame for my weigh in today and it’s the cutest ? my little motivation

I have NOT been as diligent as I thought I’d be, and hoped I’d be. I lost my motivation and have been super busy. BUT, I’ve changed some habits and that’s helped me to STILL lose weight (not gain any, woo!) just at a much slower pace than I anticipated. It’s very refreshing to me that I’ve been able to see the scale go down, while feeling too overwhelmed to actively diet/exercise right now. Those little habit changes can do a lot!

If you follow me on social media, I'll bring back that motivation https://www.tiktok.com/@dkt_gaming?_t=ZT-8uNUN3EOifD&_r=1

  • Non-Scale Victories are everything! The scale can move in different directions for so many different reasons and it can feel like you don’t have much control over it. Non-Scale Victories are what keep you going!

    Recognizing NSVs can help keep you positive and encouraged daily.

    Here are some examples:

    * More energy
    * Can lift heavier
    * Clothes fit better
    * Can workout longer
    * Less cravings
    * Better mood

    Have you had any NSVs lately? Share them, so we can all cheer your victory!

I now take the 3 flight stairs to my office instead of the elevator. This is a win for me.

I went down another size! And also had to readjust my fitness watch again

  • NSV for today!

    I was on a FaceTime call with my husband, and I couldn’t help but to notice my neck muscles flexing/popping out, and how thin my face was looking. My skins been looking clearer too! It’s all that water I’ve been drinking, I’m sure!!

    I felt so good! Usually I can’t help but to notice how poor I look in our video calls, especially after a long day with the kids, so this felt sooo good!

    Including a pic from my walk today

Thank you guys! I know I get a lot of encouragement from other people’s NSVs too.

Boy do I know the feeling - which is why I never FaceTime anyone other than my mom - hahaha

  • We walked an hour and a half again today, and spent some time down by the water. This has been wonderful for all of us so far. I intend to do these hour and a half walks every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. And then shorter walks on Tuesday and Thursday. Maybe we will find some new routes to do, too, to keep it interesting!

Yep! We are in south Florida, it was a much nicer day than typical but still super humid.

Nancy N.

It's always fun walking with my son. His stories keep us distracted. We also use some of the time to discuss how to behave with other kids when he is called out about something at school.
They don't know better when it's the first time. So we talk about how he would feel if it happened to him and then talk out better scenarios for next time.
I did have to check myself a few times to reframe the walk as a fun time, not a walk that I'd make mile or time goals. They get distracted and slow down a lot. But they have so much fun!

  • Wooo! I’ve found something that I think will really work for me going forward, especially with 75 hard that I’m trying.

    There’s a park nearby that takes me 45 minutes to walk to. The park has equipment for my toddler to play on and equipment for me to work out with.

    Yesterday, I walked 45 minutes there and 45 back. Plus played with my kiddo on the playground and experimented with the equipment. (Pretty sore today!)

    My husband will come this weekend and show me how to use some of the equipment to get the best workout.

    But it’s a wonderful way to get my two 45 minute workouts in for 75 hard, gets my toddler moving and playing, and I’m totally packing a picnic next time!

That's great, we are covered in snow here, but you have inspired me to try to get the kids out for some winter fun

I got on the scale this morning saw the number and wow, I can't believe I'm doing so well... then I realized I weighed more than yesterday!

Thanks for posting that experience :blush:. Now I don’t feel so bad. :laughing: thank goodness there are other data points in the bigger picture.
And nice work on doing so well, and for being so encouraging!
