Is there an app for visually tracking progress?

I just watched Mr. Beast’s latest video about weight loss and it really got me thinking. There was this montage they showed, tracking progress over time and it honestly looked like the kind of thing that would be super helpful for staying motivated. I’m wondering if there’s an app out there that lets you log your journey like that. I feel like seeing those gradual changes in one place could be the thing that keeps me going on days when I don’t feel like anything’s changing. Has anyone used something like this? I’d love to hear what’s worked for others.

Is it really water weight?

I have been on a calorie deficit for around 3/4 weeks now and i have been reaching to just eat healthier and overall look better. I have been eating around 1500kcal a day while also working out my core every other day. I have been making really good progress, already losing 10 pounds but when i went to weight myself i saw that instead of losing i instead gained 2lbs. I thought i was gonna be 3 pounds lighter since that what the routine had been everytime i weighed myself but i was confused and first looked at reddit and other stuck looking for an answer.

I came to the conclusion that it might be water weight but its the next day from and i still havent gone down. does it usually take longer for water weight to go down or did i actually gain more weight? I also have a weird sort of physique to where weight loss isnt completely noticeable and im just tryna sort out any type of explanation.

Success, even when I treated myself!

I attended the funeral of a co-workers farther today. I didn't know it but it brought up a lot.

Along with a very hot day, the result was my husband and I going to the pub. I'm massively cutting down on booze on this weight loss journey but today was tough so I gave in. As a comprise,we walked there both ways. The result was 11k steps.

I added every pint to my calorie counter app and when I knew another would leave no room for dinner, I stopped. My goal is 1500 a day, (female)

Dinner even ended up being a takeaway but I deliberately ordered from the only place that includes calories on the menu. It's 10pm and I still have 100 calories to spare I think I'll drink a big water and hit the hay.

I feel like a real person again

I’ve lost around 20-25 pounds since January, and a couple weeks ago it felt like a switch flipped in my brain. All of a sudden I felt like I was living in my body for the first time inside of being trapped inside my head. When I looked in the mirror, it reflected how I see myself in my mind— it was an incredibly validating and confidence-boosting feeling. When I look down at my hands or catch a glimpse of my reflection in a window, it actually feels like me. It’s so freeing to be out of a cycle of inner hatred. I’m still planning on losing more weight, and I’ve been very private about my weight loss journey, but I just wanted to share and see if anyone else has come to a similar realization!

How to beat the urge to eat?

Hey guys! Currently on a weight loss journey and 20/40 lbs down. Although I can plan my meals pretty well to be stuff I enjoy, doing low cal swaps and being consistent in the gym, one thing I’ve been struggling with is resisting the urge to snack and treat myself. It isn’t necessarily the fact that I’m hungry I just crave a bag of chips or a sweet treat especially now that’s it’s summer and my schedule is very open (I’m a student). I’m finding it harder to resist the urge although what’s keeping me motivated is my upcoming vacation however once that’s past I don’t know. I can try and fit more snacks into my deficit but I rather prioritize eating actual meals since I’m doing an aggressive cut since I rather lose weight quicker. Sorry for the long message and let me know what has worked for yall :)

Little big win: I said no to a donut!!!

Donuts are my #1 ultimate comfort food, and Friday is usually a guaranteed donut day to celebrate the weekend. I decided to treat myself to an iced tea instead because I do enjoy the ritual of it all. But... I made the mistake of going out hungry and stressed and then I got stuck in construction traffic. By the time I finally got to Dunkin', I had talked myself into a donut and even logged it in LoseIt.

When I got in the drive through, I ordered my iced tea and THEN... I said "that'll be it." It felt AWESOME!

I'm in the first week of this round of weight loss so every win feels enormous, but this definitely felt like a breakthrough!

I’m almost at my goal weight but I want to lose more

Anybody else get close to their goal or hit it and realize that they would be happier if they lost more? Well I’m in this situation now. I’m 5’11 (female) and my goal weight was 165 pounds. I’m now 167 pounds (about a 40 pound weight loss)

I want to lose more but everyone says I wouldn’t be a healthy weight if I lost anymore than what I’ve lost, but I disagree. Anybody can go on google and see that according to my bmi I’m barely in the healthy range for my height. I think if I lost 10 more pounds I would look exactly how I want to look. Opinions or advice?
