Non scale victories / my wedding rings fit 💍

I'm a 50 year old female, height 5/2, starting weight 161.5, currently 146.4. I started keto in February, lost 10 pounds the first 2 weeks. The following 2 weeks weight loss stalled. I know it's because I added stevia and other creative keto alternatives. I'm not new to keto in 2019 I did perfect keto for 1 year and 3 months and got down to 120 pounds, I felt amazing. I'm a carb and sugar addict all it took was one cheat meal to little by little go back to my old ways. So here I am again. This is why I know the stevia and being a little too creative with my keto meals caused me to stall on my weightloss. I'll be able to get keto creative again once I reach my weightloss goal of 120 pounds. Because of the weightloss stall I knew I had to get strict, so starting March I've basically been doing the Carnivore diet, and already in one week lost 5 pounds. So I'm back on track. Oh yes! Another thing I should mention is I've also been Omad since February. I was so excited that my size 6 wedding rings fit perfectly. This is the first time I post on here, I wish I could post a picture but I don't know how 😄 What non scale victory have you experienced?

My (21F) doctor is pushing me towards weight loss surgery, I'm unsure if I should get it.

I have been obese for most of my life and at my highest weight was 365 pounds, in two months I've lost 30 pounds, this isn't huge or anything but I'm pretty proud of myself. I've just stuck to a healthier diet, and regular gym routine which is really fun and I couldn't see myself going back to eat the junk I used to eat at all. My doctor is still recommending for me to pursue weight loss surgery, which I used to want but now I'm unsure because I feel like I may be able to do it naturally. What do you guys think? Should I maybe get weight loss surgery or try it naturally first?

Tell me about your weight loss journey on depopravera.

This birth control weight gain is honestly about to make me get off of it. I gained 10 lbs between my first and second shot and i was already overweight (5’9 205 now 215). My gyno told me it will stabilize eventually but i want to lose the damn weight. I dont like the idea of beginning my fitness journey and having to fight something like birth control. Can anyone ease or confirm my fears? Any other suggestions of BC aside from IUD that may not have such a dramatic gain?

Since ive learned about my 10 lb gain I have been monitoring my calories, going to the gym every other day doing cardio with some weights, and the past two wks i went to the gym M-F. I am burning 700 calories per workout according to my watch. I feel like im doing great. But the depoprovera weight gain paranoia lingers in my mind daily.

I may or may not get that third shot.

Best Book If You Deal With Overeating And Want To Lose Weight

I’ve been reading this book called “The Binge Code” by Alison Kerr it is such a life changer. The author breaks down the habits that we are stuck in, diet ideologies we have been trained to believe,how our bodies fight against us when we do extreme diets, and how to fix these issues. She is not anti diet which I love she just wants people to diet in a way that won’t trigger you into overeating and I’ve struggled with overeating/binge eating for such a long time I’m currently on chapter 13 and I’ve implemented the tips she’s given and I’ve been successful in my diet and weight loss so far. I definitely recommend you can find the book on audible and kindle.

Weight loss is all or nothing for me, how do you find balance?

I'm 33F, 5'3, HW 267/CW 247/GW <200. Diagnosed ADHD, PCOS, BED.

My problem is this. When I'm not actively trying to lose weight, I feel like I don't think about food at all. I'll realize I'm hungry, decide what I want to eat, and eat it. And then I don't think about food again until I'm hungry again. If I'm sad or stressed, well, then the bingeing comes into play, but I'm still not sitting at my desk planning all the things I'm going to mow down at 5 o'clock, I just see things in the store, think 'yep, that'll surely fix it,' and in the cart it goes. I weigh myself once in awhile, when I remember I haven't done it in days to weeks.

When I am actively trying to lose weight, which I would like to start doing again now, I am constantly thinking about food: what I'm going to eat and when I get to eat it, literally counting down the hours. Then I do lots of math and obsessive tracking.

I have to plan and pre-track everything for the whole day so I won't exceed my calorie goal and also get the right macros. I've heard macros don't matter so much for most people, but because I have PCOS I know I should be eating low carb and since I'm not working out a lot I know I shouldn't eat too much protein, so I gotta track.

And weighing myself? I do it every day, in the morning, absolutely naked. I even take off my glasses and my hair tie. I need to know my exact weight and I do not want even .1 extra.

So basically...how can I not do that?

My flatmate always offers me a sweet. Should i just receive it and bin it later without eating?

I mean, like 3-4 times a week she’ll either hand on me a piece of cake, a donut, or other treats. Anything she hands on me will provide at least almost 300kcal or above sometimes.

If you think why i can’t just eat it and burn it later, i mean i work out to create calories deficit of 200-300 (and another 200-300 from eating, so my deficit is 400-600 everyday). If i eat it and burn it later, in this case i’ll create only 200-300 calories deficit a day.

If it was once a week i wouldn’t mind. But this is 3-4 times a week and i feel uncomfortable to tell her that i’m trying to lose weight. (That’s because i don’t look fat anymore but my weight is still little overweight, so i want to manage it a bit more).

Since she’s been here my weight loss rate is much slower as i’ve always received the treat from her. What should i do?

Weight loss advice

Advice please

I need to loose 8 - 10kgs by the 15th may - so roughly 2 months. What is the best way to do so? Any advice? I am 20, female and currently 60kgs. I am 160cm. I’m in Scotland. Please help! I feel very unhealthy and gross, i do eat (mainly) healthy, but i have a real sweet tooth for chocolate and biscuits especially. I work a 9 - 5 desk job, but i do try to go for short 20min walks every day. I have time to meal prep / cook, I’m happy to cook from scratch. I have a trip to the USA for two weeks at the end of this month, so i will need to work around this / with the foods available whilst I’m there and the logistics of travelling. So determined to get rid of this weight for good! Please hit me with your best advice.
