I will have to say that at my highest weight I ate fairly well, just when I did eat bad I REALLY ate bad and binged. so that's how I blew up to 300lbs lol however now I am with you, if hubby is eating his Ben and Jerrys ice cream I will eat a couple of bites as opposed to eating the whole pint to myself. I do eat all the low carb stuff too. I do fear that my little Bites, Licks and Tastes will add up and make make me blow up again, but I work out 6 days a week, 2 cardio days, 2 upper body strength days, and 2 lower body strength days. I know you said that you have always worked out...I am getting bored of my routine which is why I added a cardio day and added 1 day of F45. What do you do?

I’m counting it since my body has been fluctuating weight for the last month! 😂 but this is insane, never have I ever been this weight in my adult life! Never have I ever been this fit, never have I ever stayed on this path and stuck it through. What an amazing tool! Next goal? BOOBIES 😅

Kind of feel like a broken record from what everyone says but....STALLS HAPPEN! Also, its okay to have imperfect days, were human, give yourself grace. I freaked out when I had mine so I totally get it! but your doing amazing!! Just from your profile pics I can see the changes in your face, you have lost 88lbs! to put that in perspective, that is my 7yr old and 2yr weight combined! you lost two little people lol Now your wearing a 1x?! damn killing it!! Keep doing what your doing it will come off, and focus on those NSV's they make all the difference!

I work out and cook/bake. The cooking and baking is not a great outlet for everyone, I don't eat the baking and the cooking is new recipes that I can and want to eat. I have to get out of my head at times, I have issues with really bad negative self talk and it reflects how I treat my husband and kids. So I go for a run, or try a new recipe. Will have my daughter join me and we just talk and I teach her. But Exercise is the BEST, I will put in my airpods listen to some hype music and just go hard. I have never regretted a work out. If you just put on your shoes and get in your car, then your motivation will come.

yessss!! so good!! I have been doing so much experimenting lately lol!

Girl comment all day on these muscles! I put in WORK at the gym! so THANK YOU!! ❤️

I drink fairlife milk too or when a recipe has milk I put the FF one in there. but for sweet desserts the protein drinks hit a different part of my soul that I always knew needed attention LOL Last night I made these PB balls. Pb2, oatmeal, honey, water and Lilly chocolate chips. I was able to 15 balls out of it for 68cal each. So Ill eat 2 for a snack. I'm at the point where I am keeping track of Carbs but not limiting them under 60 I am noticing now that I have been eating fruit and veggies again my BM are more regular. LIike you said so hard to re-train our brain!! I immediately go omgsh carbs bad, but not all are.

yes!! girl we are here to support you and jump up and down at your accomplishments!

yasss!!! your doing amazing! love seeing all your pics!

Thank you!!!

Girl you work your stuff! you will be struttin your stuff and we want pics!! Thank you btw! I still battle with how I look but hey fake it till you make it LOL

I put blueberries and natural PB on a rice cake OMG! But for a "healthier" less calorie PB. Try mixing 1 bottle of vanilla Fairlife protein shake and 8oz container of PB2 (powder PD) mix together OMG! 72ish calories for 2 tbls and 9g protein!

Thank you!!

Fairlife is soooooo good! BUT so expensive so I stick to premier protein. With the occasional fairlife to make "desserts" lol

They have done so much cottage cheese. It’s delicious! High protein too!

Moderation is very key. I am nervous that I will never be able to fully achieve that. It’s a man annoying feeling. The feeling of falling off the wagon and just continuing getting bigger. Like my how my yo-yo dieting went pre op. If that makes any sense

I really need to bite the bullet and just buy it 😝

This looks so yummy!

Omgsh this sounds AMAZING!! I have been eyeing a machine like that. I hate that fruit has so many carbs. They shouldn’t count 😂

Yes!! And I have eaten them. The little frosted cakes are yummy. I should give that isle another look over. Thank you!

Omg pb2 and Cocao?! Ima try this tomorrow 😂 sounds delicious!! I am STRUGGLING with no lt having sugar. I don’t give in but the times I do I feel so guilty. I am trying to find that balance without being scared that I’ll gain everything back.

this is very true! if you have a grill, slicing a peach in half put it in the microwave for just a touch to soften it then grill it open face down then add a dollop of Greek yogurt add a little cinnamon. DELCIOUS!! I tend to eat more whole foods but I have been getting a super hankering for candy, I think its almost that time of the month. The sugar free candy isnt worth my calories. so I am trying to find "desserts" that tickle my fancy.

I love cooking and finding new recipes are always fun to me, but I do understand what your saying. I agree processed foods is what got us to where we were, and most if not all my meals are cooked at home. and thank you for saying all the nice things! Im hoping these pesky .4 come off LOL Do you have recipes you can share that you make?

I think going from a size 18/20 to a size 4 I am like whoa there! and thank you for saying I dont look too small that makes me feel better!! thank you soo much for your kind words!!

thank you! I like the blond too! girl its all bra! hahah Victoria Secret sure came in clutch LOL!! They are sad in those cups haha! I appreciate you saying that!
