What’s everyone’s opinions on Hello Fresh?

I have been in a huge weight loss slump lately. Work has me tired and I just have 0 energy to do anything. I want to get back on track, but I hate meal prepping.

It used to work for me but now I just get fed up after a day or two. I never fancy what I’ve cooked and it never turns out the way I want it to.

I had a letter through about starting to use hello fresh again and I figured I’d give it a shot, mainly because it has everything sorted and all I need to do is sort my lunch and breakfast for work each day.

But is it actually that good a tool for weight loss? I don’t know if I’m just wasting my time and money on it when I should be doing it all myself.

What keeps YOU up at night if you don't reach your weight loss goal?

This question might be little personal for some, but for me.. if I don't commit to the promise to myself that I would not reach the goal of reaching my ideal weight.. I feel that I will be unhealthy, sad, and unable to fulfill my potential as a person for the REST of my life.

Some people say your value to the world isn't just your appearance.. but it does affect how you FEEL about yourself.. therefore your confidence within yourself will affect other areas of your life...

You start to talk to more strangers, buy more clothes that fit you better, take more chances in your career or business, improve your dating prospects, increase your attraction to your current partner, explore new hobbies and interests... the list goes on and on.

Without your health, you cannot enjoy life to the fullest... with your family, friends, hobbies, career.. LIFE in general.

So what exactly keeps YOU up at night if you don't take care of your weight and health?

How do I become more disciplined?

By being discipline what I mean is how to not give in to my desires? For instance one thing that really sets me back is waking up, when I wake up and I am groggy, more often than not I will just go back to bed which leads to me not being able to cook breakfast before going to work which in turn leads me to eating junk food. Sometimes this also extends to cooking my week's meals before hand or even sitting down and eating, some times I'll go "eh I'm not hungry" and wait till I'm really hungry before eating, but instead of eating the chicken with rice I am supposed to eat I'll shove cookies, bread and what not on my mouth. So how do I stop that? How do I stop myself from going back to sleep and force myself to eat the damn lunch during the right time. Also, before anyone says to not buy food that's bad for weight loss, my wife some buys them, and she's way better at this stuff than I am but I'm not gonna tell her to stop buying what she likes because I can't get my shit together.

Weight loss plateau?

Hi everyone, I’ve been struggling to lose weight. I started off my weight loss journey back in February. I weighed 142 at the time and have lost 23 pounds. I was in a major calorie deficit of 800 calories a day and burning 2000 calories to 2500 calories a day for 2 months. I’ve raised my calorie intake from 1000 to 1400 calories a day. I’m at 119 and i’ve stop losing weight. It’s been like this for the past month. I believe I’m in a plateau if there’s any advice that you can give me to surpass this please let me know. Along with any nutritional advice, workout routine, or how much should I burn a day or calories I should consume in a day. Thank you for listening and for all the advice!

Here’s further info: Female BMR: 1241 cal Body fat: 24.6% BMI: 22.7 weight now: 118.4 Start weight: 142 Goal weight: 100 height: 5'0 19 age activity level: walks 10,000 steps a daily burn at least 2,000 calories average daily Eat about 1000 calories a day

I want to lose fat Use weight lifting to build muscle for my glutes Use pilates to have toned back and arms

BMI rant

I just wanna say that I think BMI is bullshit lol. I’m currently 227lbs 5’4” 23F and I’m at 39% BMI. Very high I know. My goal weight for now is 180lbs which is 52lbs at the start of my weight loss journey. I think that’s significant and will totally be noticeable (I’d think) when I get there.

Now the problem. If I type in the info I’m at but at 180lbs I come out to be 30% and still considered obese, when that is SIGNIFICANTLY better than what I was at the start (235lbs).

I sadly avoid the doctor for some problems that have been happening for a while and probably caused because of the weight because I know they’ll point at my weight and tell me to lose it. I’m terrified I’ll go in after I have lost significant weight and still get told to lose more since the ideal weight for my height and age is 140ish.

Off track a little, my point is if I feel good at 180 and look happy at 180 I think it’s healthy and the BMI calculator would no longer apply to me. I just wanted to rant and maybe see if anyone would agree or thoughts about it.

Lost 65 lbs and super unhappy with the appearance of my body

31 F, I recently lost 65lbs and have about 25 more to go for my goal weight. I’ve had two children and after that plus weight loss I look like a saggy bag of crap. My boobs lay flat on me and reach my middle gut. My belly hangs low. Even tho I’m at a healthy BMI finally I feel like the extra skin and sagging takes away from my accomplishments. A “mommy makeover” surgery is upwards of 30k!!! I genuinely can’t imagine taking that much away from my family for something superficial, yet I look at my reflection and know that exercise will never take the skin away and lift the boobs. How do you come to terms with the new look after weight loss? I know I can’t be the only one who can’t afford a surgery like this. I’m so angry with myself for gaining all that weight to begin with.

postpartum losers: what is our starting weight

are you using your walking-in-to-deliver weight as your starting number or are you using a number from later, like for example 6 weeks postpartum? when people say "i gained xx pounds when i was pregnant," it obviously includes the baby and extra fluids....

i know it's not technically weight loss but also it was a lot of work! but also i don't want to misrepresent my progress.

i've lost 20 pounds since getting the clear to exercise but 35 pounds since going in for delivery, curious what other folks are doing!
