I am ahead of my goal. I did a Kickstarter and weighed in today. That is what made the difference for me. Hopefully I don't go crazy over the next couple days.

I think I’d like this. Is smaller than a treadmill. And I could bike and watch tv, while crocheting ?

I’ve been doing Kickstarter bets the last six months and after I barely made my goal this past one I decided it was time to switch to a Transformer. I haven’t plateaued per se but it’s definitely coming off more slowly than before. I also started this bet a week late. Hoping to hit this first goal next week. I was weighing myself every other day but now I’m doing Tuesdays and Fridays so I don’t get discouraged with the slight ups and downs. I’m almost down 30% of my initial weight of 176 lbs. I’m only 5’1”. In the 120’s now and I’m feeling great! I didn’t put a timeline on this journey and I’ve enjoyed every benchmark!

I have graduated from chair yoga to regular yoga. Not easy but I did it. No back pain at all. Learning to celebrate the little things.

My little thing the other day was noticing that I can see my clavicle bone again! Almost 50 lbs down :raised_hands:

  • I love yoga! I just finished 30 days of yoga with Adrienne on YT and started 30 days of flow with her too.

Spent the last two days in Florida for a conference. I didn't track and I didn't exercise but I did get LOTS of steps in. Food wasn't the greatest but it was better than what past habits led me to do.

I also drank a lot of water.

I didn't weigh myself and today, I'm going to continue my regularly scheduled programming. I'm also going to focus on clean eating and drinking water so I can detox any water weight I'm holding on to. I'll know tomorrow morning when I weigh in how I really did.

That's probably my greatest challenge in this journey. I travel a lot and struggle staying in a healthier mindset and definitely struggle with self sabotage. I welcome any advice and tips!

My best slice of advice would be to figure out why you want to be healthier. That’s what helps me make better choices. Food is a conscious decision, every time you’re feeding yourself, remembering that it’s to nourish your body. We make tend to make bad decisions when we’re eating for enjoyment. Yes we should enjoy what we’re eating, but sometimes we let that get out of control. Just remember why you’re wanting to take better care of your vessel.

I'm doing the same. This scale is playing games with me. One moment I think I've reached next month's goal next day I don't. Taking it one day at a time. Good luck with reaching your goals

I can’t believe I’ve hit my goal for the first month already. Back in January I started eating a carnivore diet and had lost 10lbs in a month. The second month I hit a plateau. Sticking with it and started naturally switching to one meal a day (on carnivore you eat until you’re full, then don’t eat again until you’re hungry). My metabolism has changed, my energy levels are up, my mental health has improved tremendously. And I’m down 9lbs since this round started. 😳

Way to go!

So proud of you, Mindy! You pushed through the plateau and thrived. Energy up, pounds down — you’re crushing it. Keep shining! ?✨

  • Just finished my 6th Kickstarter Bet and after barely reaching my goal by .2 pounds I decided I need to probably slow my goals. I’m hoping to lose more than 10% by the end of this Transformer but it’s a good place to start. I’m down 45 lbs in those 6 previous consecutive DietBets! 🙌🎉

That's freaking amazing! Way to keep the momentum!

Mindywindy

I felt the same way trying to lose 4% in a month was a lot. I’m hoping that this longer challenge will be a good pace for weight loss.
