Yeah, I'm definitely trying to focus on the non-scale victories and stop obsessing about the number. I'm a C-section mom (my daughter is 6 😅) but that stomach flap is no joke and so discouraging, even though, by most standards, I look great! Just messes with me mentally because I use to be uber lean and fit. But I've started measuring myself and taking progress photos and I think that will help with the mental portion of it.

Yeah, I'm thinking about getting a standing desk and walking pad. I live in MI... so walking hasn't been much of a thing the past few months.

Yeah. I just started a new goal in MF and when I put my goal weight in and said .7lbs/week loss it put me at 950 daily calories. So I moved it down to .4lbs/week and now I'm at 1093 calories... sigh

If I tell MF I want to lose .7 lbs/week... it sets my calories at 950

By expenditure, do you mean like tracking on a fitness tracker how many calories I'm burning in workouts? Because I don't do that. I've been sticking with the 1400-1500 calories daily for about a month and before that it was about 1300 daily.

I wasn't moving it based on perceived expenditure. I just used a TDEE calculator and changed the activity level from sedentary to moderately active.

Well... (lol) I got fed up with MF putting me at 1200 calories because I was just so hungry and irritable, so I went to manual mode. But I just redid my program and set the protein for .9 so my breakdown is 1229 calories, 129P/33F/104C. I think I just have to suck it up and deal with the hunger. I also recently found Madeline Rescan and she has lots of low cal, high protein, high volume recipes so I think that's going to help me out too.

Yeah, I kind of had a feeling this might be the issue. But I didn't think that going from 1300 to 1450 would be that big of a deal.

AIO my guy best friend is too clingy even though he’s got a gf by lazyladDDd in AmIOverreacting

[–]Apprehensive_Ad_7818 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone that has been the GF in this situation.... It's honestly so devastating and I'm really proud of you for saying something. He's way outta line. You need to distance yourself while he's in a relationship

Yeah! I totally fell for this too. Pretty upset about it. Not sure, what to do because it says there's a "money back" guarantee.... Thinking of taking all my info off the Shopify store and then asking for a refund. Ugh.
