Wisdom teeth extraction worries

I have two wisdom teeth that have to be extracted in a few weeks. I started my weight loss journey in October and have successfully lost 15 pounds. I have stayed extremely dedicated to exercising and CICO.

Now for my worries, When I was 17 I had two teeth filled that had cavities. Little did I know, they were wisdom teeth. Idk why my parents chose to get them filled and not pulled. So, story short, I have to get the top two wisdom teeth pulled while I’m put to sleep. I’m scared that since I won’t be able to exercise for a few days, I will completely fall off and ruin all my progress. I’m not so worried about the diet, just losing the motivation. I had a tooth extracted as a teenager and remembered being in so much pain that all I wanted to do was cry or sleep.

Sorry for rambling. I just have so many emotions involving this entire thing.

I’m starting to develop an unhealthy relationship with eating after some weight loss, please help

A year ago I weighed 150lbs at 5’3” I limited my calories to 1200 per day and lost 30lbs within 4 months to now being 124lbs.

I’m trying to lose 10-15 more pounds and it has been EXTREMELY hard. I don’t exercise at the gym (I don’t feel safe doing so with COVID) and I work a sedentary job.

I’m now starting to feel like when I eat those 1200 calories in a day that I’m binging, that I’ll be extremely fat to the point of gaining some weight. In my brain, I’ve now somehow told myself that 700 calories per day is ultimate, 900 calories is a bit of a cheat and 1200 calories is a binge in a day.

If I eat 1200 calories my weight just stays the same. I’ve gone some days (up to a week) of only eating 700 calories and it wasn’t sustainable. I’d go back to the 1200 because I’d be starving.

Why did all of a sudden did my brain think that now 1200 calories (which is normal, if not less than the recommended daily intake) is a binge and 700 is normal?

How do I overcome this too?

How we ended the Year.

Hello, I like you are losing weight, it may be 100 pounds, it may be 5 but its still weight loss.

everyone this year has been so kind (for the most part) and welcoming in this community and im glad to see myself leaving my 200's early 2021, holy hell has it been a wild year but for many that pushed us even harder to achieve our goals.

With 2021 days away I wanna talk about YOU, usually we ask for advice, help and composure but this time I wanna put the light on whoever is lucky or unlucky to read this, how far did you get? How much more do you wanna go? Just remember that there's others out there like you, somewhere, what were your experiences with the r/loseit community? Both the negative and positive and most importantly this isn't a question but a reminder, you may not be content with your current weight but when you start losing weight or if you already lost weight you should always, ALWAYS be proud, never let anyone talk you out it, never let anyone convince you that you aren't worth it, cause God damn it do you have potential, so 2021, what you gonna do?

I fell off for a week, AGAIN

I was doing really well for about a month. I was eating around 1600 calories a day, and walking about 20,000+ steps, with a workout sometimes as well. I only took like 2 rest days during that month, and each one, I still did like 10,000 steps. I started at around 340+ and I think I’ve lost about 20-30 lbs last month.

Then I hurt my foot. I was running on the sidewalk barefoot. There was a fire in my house, so my parents had me drive down the street with the cars to make room for the fire truck, and I ran back to the house without thinking I might hurt my foot since my fatass was pounding my feet the sidewalk.

I fucked up my instep pretty bad, it hurt like hell to walk for like 3 days. Then it started to get better, but I didn’t start walking again. I kinda fell back into my usual routine weight loss were I do good, something happens, and I give myself a reason to quit. I fell off for a week instead of 3 days, because my weak mind allowed myself to fall off track like I always do.

BUT THIS TIME IT AINT HAPPENING AGAIN BOIS!!!! I’m not gonna let my pussy ass mind find a way for me to fuck up and fail again like I always do. I started back up again today, and just reached my new goal of 22,000 steps a day.

Keep grinding fuckers.... don’t let your depression, laziness, sadness, or weak minds control you any longer. 2021 is OUR year to get SHIT DONE.

Keep Hammering, Stay Hard, Merry Fucking Christmas

Weight loss apps/help

I need to loose weight, I’m so unhappy and unhealthy that I just can’t go on like this anymore. I used to be extremely active then I became a stay at home mom and the covid hit. I’m +60 pounds over the past 2 years and it’s time to change! Problem is, it’s covid and I can’t join a gym. I can go walking around my neighborhood but it’s hard to do when I have to be a home with my kid, it’s to cold for her to be out just walking around.

What are some good beginner apps I can down load to start at home maybe a few times a day that don’t just jump into crap I can’t do yet. I want something that’s going to keep me motivated not discourage me. Does anyone know of any apps that are trustworthy?

Starting Again

So I am about to restart my Weight loss journey after a long break of about 17 months.

I started on 1st January 2018 and went from 120kg (264 lbs ) to 87kg ( ~192 lbs) within 3.5 months. But after that pretty strict routine of IF , CICO and low-carb Diet I somewhat lost the motivation, or who knows thought that the change was enough and stopped managing my weight anymore.

I bought new clothes and got rid of the old clothes to make sure that I dont gain the weight back and managed to hold my weight at the range of 205-209 lbs since then. But I don't feel happy with my current weight anymore and want to do some changes.

My GW is 165 lbs (75kg) with an halfway goal of 80kg (175lbs). The halfway goal is set that way,because after that I am -according to the BMI- not owerweight anymore. ( I know that the BMI doesnt equal a healthy/universal measure for the correct weight , nonethless its a goal i set/always had )

I plan to count my Calories and reduce them to 1500 a day and decrease carbs while doing so. I have an App for HIIT Trainings (Freeletics )and will start doing an Bodyweight training focused Journey/Programm there 4 times a week while trying to learn how to jog because I really admire people for being able to run their 30/60 Minutes a Day without taking rests. My Plan is to alternate between a Day of that bodyweight training and a day of running/walking ( i have a 30 Days Plan "How to run 30 Minutes in 30 Days"

I am posting it here because I want to motivate my self and want to know what Time is plausible to reach my goals. I've read that it will be harder this time to loose weight because my body went through that once already. Is this the case? I am 24 Years old, male and a Student and my part-time jobs aren't physical.

English isn't my first language so I would like to apologise if there are mistakes

Half way to my first goal weight! + Need advice?

F25, SW: 276/295. CW: 270!! (Jumping from 266-269)

First GW: 250-230.

I was stuck at 276-280 for SO LONG I didn’t think I would EVER make it to 270!! But here I am!! I’m so happy. I didn’t get there in the most healthiest way though.

I was sick for three weeks in November possibly with covid, or just a really horrible flu, I wasn’t able to get tested at the time. Then, I had surgery this Monday, so I dropped another 5 lbs. I’m eating steadily, but it’s hard since I’m getting implants soon, So it’s gonna be kinda hard to eat healthy for the next 6+ weeks. Mostly on a soft food/liquid diet right now. I had too many infections/sinus infections and it was making me sick all the time. Now I know why. I hope that after this next surgery, I will be so much better health wise and I’ll be able to continue losing more weight. I think that was why my weight loss has been at a pause for so long. I’ve been trying this since 2017. I’m so looking forward to the future. I’m down to XL in shirts and large in pants. I can buy almost any clothing at Target now. Soon I can fit into dresses without feeling like a beast.

I want to be an actor within the next 3 years. So losing weight is very important to me. I look up to The Rock aka Dwayne Johnson, He’s been a major role model in my life in fitness. I also look to my favorite female actors too. I want to be fit for the rest of my life, Not just to lose weight!! I want to be able to go for walks every day without having to stop and catch my breath every 5 minutes. I want to keep it off. I’m looking forward to healing after this surgery and slowly getting back into the fitness routine. I probably won’t make it back to the gym until Spring, But I’m okay with that. They’ve been closing on and off and it’s kind of scary. I think the gym is what got me sick for so long!! I don’t feel safe going in the winter. I can work out at home. I lost 22 lbs before doing it that way. I will take any advice y’all have to keep up with this streak.
