Oh I didn't realize you were in Germany! Well I'm definitely a closer to couch potato but definitely not an emotional eater. I'm also busy with life and this can't be my everlasting focus so want the simplest ways to maintain (sanity) lol because I have a lot of other thing I have to focus on coming up. I promised myself I was only going to give this 1 hard solid dedicated year of focus then it needed to be easy peasy so I'm looking for short cuts...

Update: Constipation. Don't let it happen to you. Oats and I have agreed to see other people permanently. I feel back to normal. Like I only gained a little instead of a ton lol

Sugar detox... It's hard no lie but you can do it!!!!

It is! (and expensive too) I only bought one bag 10 months ago. I use it for specialized recipes.

I don't mind, I want all the information. Good and bad changes.

Vacations to exotic places in so I save these for big milestones...

It's so fracking good

Yay! Welcome to the team

Welcome to your lifeeeeeee CONGRATS!

Prayers up! You're going to do great!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Salmon (pouched or canned) mayo, spices(sweet curry powder, red curry powder, onion and garlic powder, pepper,salt, anything else you like)! Enjoy!!! here you go @Jobber

Curried salmon pate (recipe is in one of the earlier post)

Do you track meal regularly with an app or by sight? Do you set yearly goals? Do you work out more now compared to the first year? Thanks!!

Lol It can be about the losing and maintenance phases. Absolutely everyone is welcome to answer especially from their own perspective. No matter how divergent their path is. That's really what im looking for, alot of personal views on what people are really doing. Im totally trying to avoid drama at this point, stress raises cortisol levels and cortisol blocks fat burning 😂😂😂😂😂 I just want to find the most information I can and maybe leave record of it on the site for others. I truly value the exchange of information this site provides.

Question: Anyone participating long term with intense / strict / detailed / complex routines feel stressed about them? Or are happy with the structures they provide? Vice Versa for simplified/ relaxed/looser lifestyles? Constant anxiety over regain? Or not worried because you have it at a nice ebb and flow? I didnt want this to be a this vs that thread, I wanted to know what was working or wasnt working (from real experience not conjecture)

Absolutely!!!

All caught up on the thread! Congrats Everyone for smashing goals! So I gained a ton of weight... I can feel it. But well worth it because this is my real life, forever. I have feasting periods, never giving it up. So now that October is here, time for me to get serious again. I love being flexible and laser focused lol. I don't have updated status info and won't until mid October. Stay tuned... *Oh I may be on sparsely from now on. Busy busy busy, but Im not abandoning ship!

Sandwich time!

Interesting conversation everyone! More please!

Salad time!

Looks delicious!

It could be plantar fasciitis, feels terrible. But a Doctor would be best to sort it out. Congrats in advance on your surgery!

Green smoothie and mega salad
