I'm feeling the differences in weight with how clothes fit, etc... but the scale hasn't gotten the message yet... *eyeroll* Hoping it catches up and fixes itself before weigh-in! Still have a few lbs to make goal *fingers crossed* I'm doing all the right things and at the very least I'm feeling stronger, healthier and happier with my body. So at least that's something! But I want the big "W" too!!!!

I am feeling the same way and the scale is still looking the wrong way! lol stay consistent. We can’t give up!

Amanda W.

Just keep doing all the things and everything will reflect your hard work one way or another. I’m glad you are seeing non-scale victories though. That’s gotta be encouraging!

I’m pretty proud of how far I’ve come so far. I’m so excited to see the results at the end. How has the program been for you?

Kelly M.

Amanda, I'm glad to hear that! Best wishes :sparkling_heart: I've had some health issues going on the first half, but hoping to bust it out with this low-carb diet the next two weeks ?

✨ Week 3, Day 1 ✨
You’ve made it to the start of Week 3—amazing work! 🙌 The effort you’ve put in these past two weeks is already paying off, and now it’s time to keep that momentum going.

💡 Remember: Week 3 is where consistency beats motivation. Even on the tough days, every small choice adds up—whether it’s one more glass of water, one extra walk, or saying no to that late-night snack.

👏 You’re stronger than you think, and you’ve already proven you can stick with it. Let’s crush this week together!

I'm writing that down "consistency beats motivation", excellent!

Sharonda

This week I made a decision to go to the gym every Tuesday and Thursday. I also substituted my breakfast for green smoothies (spinach, banana, chia seeds and vanilla almond milk). I hope the scale is kind to me during weigh in. I’ve been doing well so far.

I'm really struggling with weight gain these past 2 years. It all started when i switched from a work from home position to going to the office for an overnight shift. I went from an average of over 20,000 steps a day down to an average of 8,000 steps. I end up snacking way too much just to keep myself awake, and my sleep schedule is horrible. Talking like 2-3 hours at a time. Usually 4-6 hours of sleep a day. I know my cortisol levels are high because of all this.

I have asked my boss for a walking pad for my desk, but she's says we can't because it's too much of a liability :(

I'm currently in school to hopefully move off overnights. But just going to take time. I'm just sick of feeling like crap. I try to eat fruit and protein, but my willpower for candy in the vending machine is horrible. Is anyone in the same or similar boat??

That sucks about the walking pad but totally understand the reasoning. Maybe instead you could take breaks every 30 mins to an hour or every time you go to the restroom and walk around the office. Get some extra steps that way!

You’re not alone in this—so many people struggle with shift work and its effects. You’re doing the best you can with a really tough schedule, and that deserves to be celebrated. Keep showing up for yourself, even in small ways. You’re stronger than you think!

Amanda W.

Yes - I just try to make taking a walk after work a priority and keeping extra busy when I get home. Do you have a Fitbit or something similar? I really try to push myself everyday to close out those rings

🎉 Weekend reminder! Balance is key. Enjoy your plans but stay mindful — your goals are worth it. What’s ONE healthy habit you’re carrying into the weekend? 💪

I have two birthday parties this weekend, chasing my kids around the play area should buff out the dessert 😅

I prepared a veggie tray for a birthday party I’m going to. I’m going to eat a salad before I go, snack on veggies while I’m there and then have a meal prepped chili when I get home.

DietBet Ariana C.

That’s awesome! Having a plan definitely helps!

How is everyone doing so far? I bought a Fitbit and it helps me remember to drink water and has been helping me be less sedentary in my day. I’ve been fairly consistent with my water goal and step goal. I’m just trying to hone in on my meals. Any easy/family friendly meal suggestions?

I’ve been trying to focus more on protein and eating chicken. My kids are picky so don’t have too much of a variety of meals.

Amanda W.

Good ideas! I need to get back into meal prepping. I used to do it on Sundays. I’m hoping it will be easier since we are entering cooler weather and that means I’ll use the crockpot more. I think I try to over complicate my meals making it harder for myself. I just need to go back to the simple things
