[@tjackson3816]

Since I work from home, I purchased a walking pad. I am not coordinated enough to type and walk, so at the top of every hour, I walk ten minutes (about 1250 steps). That gives me about 10,000 steps when I log off for the day. I also have dumbells and lift 5 days a week.

[@trrahr5496]

good idea. at the top of every hour. I'll implement this starting tomorrow

[@ihama99]

Can you please share what brand of walking pads you use. Thanks

[@sherrillbutler6095]

Yes Me too work from home brought my walking pad and it’s such a great purchase I have been doing 3000 steps before work and walks in increments of 10 to 15 minutes throughout my work day 😊

[@sherrillbutler6095]

[@LuvJesusinfinity]

Wow that is a good idea

[@TheDivineFemedianTarot]

I lost over 300 pounds. It has been a journey in many ways. I've learned alot along the way. But the one thing I focus on the most is my emotions and spiritual well being. When I stepped on the scale years ago and saw that I was 605 pounds, I thought it was over for me. I was a person that gained weight no matter what I did. But that extra 300 pounds I gained came from not living in my truth, living with an abusive boy friend, and daily feelings of guilt over not going after my goals. I heard a voice say to me, God doesn't care if you look good in a bikini, he wants you on your life path. I got help, became a Holistic nutritionist and stepped on my path as a spiritual counselor so I can help others heal and live after weightloss. I'm glad I did. I'm glad I saved my life.

I stopped obsessing over it and focused on having good habits. No counting, calculating, measuring, micro managing labels etc. just have common sense behaviors like cooking at home, eating fruits and veggies. If I want something that taste like strawberry, eat a strawberry. And my favorite is to pair dessert with fruit. 🍌 🍒🍓🍑

I’m at this point. I was trying to lose 20 pounds in two weeks and I’m crying and miserable. I’ll aim for 20 pounds in 2 months instead

[@Kamirarenee]

Aww cute intro! 10:19 This is so true. As the seasons have gotten colder and life gets stressful, I've fallen off the wagon with eating 3 meals and snacking. Intermittent fasting works 18:6. Delaying the first meal until after 12/1pm worked best for me. I need to get back to that! Thanks for sharing your tips! Love to see your new workout routine.

[@obyerere]

I'm a mom with a 3yr old and 1 year old and HBP. I started intermittent fasting I eat well, 2 main meals and a snack.

I’ve been one of those people that have lost 20lbs and put it back on. I agree unsolved issue and bad habits caused me to regain weight. However, undiagnosed PCOS I’m learning might be the issue too. ❤Thanks for these tips I’m still going to apply them.

[@sherrillbutler6095]

Very good info I have eliminated drinking coffee every morning and only drink on Saturdays also added protein to my daily meals and exercise walking mostly my daily goal is 6000 steps working from home has limited my walking so I purchased a walking pad for my WFH office also not being too hard on myself this time around my goal is to lose 1 lb a week overall goal is 30/ 35 pounds so far I’m on task and 9lbs down since starting in September, it’s a great feeling 😊

[@missjade25]

I'm a terrible emotional eater and was recently diagnosed with an eating disorder (though I knew I've had it for years) I moved from H-town to Austin and lived with my sister for 5 years. In that time frame I went from 170 to 214. I went from rarely eating out to doing it everyday apps, entrée, and dessert. I get so depressed every time I think about it. Recently I've been trying to lose the weight and it will not move. Because of that I started binging really bad. With my therapists encouragement, I finally booked with a registered dietitian that focuses on eating disorders. Seeing this video has also reminded me that I need to include God in this journey as well. I just really want to love myself and get off some of these meds I'm on (most likely due to weight) Sorry for the novel!

[@deluxecoco2789]

Thank you for always sharing your journey with us. It’s always encouraging. I have consistently been working out 3 days a week and have added another day starting this week. I decided to cook at home 5 days a week and only eat out on the weekends. I also stopped weighing myself and focused on how my clothes fit. I have a ways to go but by next summer I will not be the same.

[@kendalldarien2918]

This video is helping me undo everything I thought about weight loss. I recently started my weight loss journey at the beginning of the month. So far I have lost 15-20 pounds. Unfortunately, I have reached a point where I’ve plateaued. The last week I haven’t lost anything. I have been following the Keto diet but I feel that it is unsustainable. I have done very well with it but I worry about when I’ve lost the desired weight, how will I keep it off? The macro calculator you provided was kind of a shock to me. I’m going to keep following your journey to see if I can continue to make adjustments. As always, thank you for these videos! I’ve been following for many years!

[@lisaboss948]

I stopped focusing on being skinny and started focusing on strength training 💪 🎉

[@Mscookie3131]

That over 30 weight loss journey is no joke, but that over 40 journey is something serious. But baby from what I hear, that over 50 journey is not for the weak. It’s best to get it under control BEFORE you reach that menopausal weight gain. Also, I love beast mode exercises, but as we age it can have the opposite effect. Just getting more steps, walking and being active can do wonders for us as we age

[@LuvJesusinfinity]

I am at the over fifty and I believe the weight said girl it’s death do us part 😂 but I’m still try to hang in there

[@A.CPeele]

I have definitely had to change my mentality toward exercise and fitness. I used to be a beast in the gym, but now at 40, I've noticed some perimenopausal symptoms that make it very difficult for me to work out to the same level that I did when I was in my 20s and 30. So now, fitness consists of full body lifting two days a wk, plenty of walking and maybe one fitness class a wk. (Zumba or spin) This has definitely made my symptoms much better.The biggest transition has definitely been mental.

[@purplesunflower8242]

Thank you..UK

[@TheDivineFemedianTarot]

Let me jump in here again. I'm all for meal prep but I do that by shopping and only buying what I'm going to eat. But! Remember to start your engine. That means starting your digestive system. The digestive system starts with looking and smelling food. If you are not prepping the food, cooking it then eating it, your digestive system is not warmed up. Snacking just forces food and it gets digested in your intestines which takes 3 days! So use biters on your tongue before lunch or before eating. I use dandelion drops but you can use whatever you want. If you struggle with cravings or appetite control, take MCT oil capsules. They help with fasting too.
