We can do this 

Quarantine has been hard for me too.... I have gone up and down the same 10 pounds since March 🥵.... everyday is the opportunity to start again 💪🏽❤️❤️hang on darling.... you can do this for yourself because you’re worth it!!!!!🥰 

How frustrating, Debbie! I hate when I have to buy larger clothes. Feels so defeating in the moment. However, having clothes that fit is important at any size. I am glad you have a plan for yourself. Be kind to yourself on this journey (not necessarily lenient but kind!) 

Just do it Debbie! 

Been there done that. Try to dump some water weight before spending on clothes you might get comfortable in. You can beat the scale, I have so much faith in you.🙏😘 

Debbie I know what you are feeling I seem to keep gaining. I trying again to get on track. why is it so easy to gain but soooo hard to lose : ) 

Debbie, you will succeed and turn this around. We are going g through a tough time. Hang in, I'm praying for you.😷🙏😉 

Don’t give up! Keep on keeping on! I had same issue! Let’s Look Forward!! 

Calorie counting is easier than anything else I've done and I hope you feel that way too. 

Hi Debbie I am really sorry you are having a tough time. If there is anything I can do to help you out like check in with you at a certain time I would be happy to do that. Sometimes we just need our friends to give us a hand up! (((hugs))) 

Hi Debbie. I am also gaining. I can relate. 

I agree with DP. Calorie counting is the way to get the weight off. I don't know what "modified calorie counting" would mean in this context. Holding yourself accountable in logging for your food choices would help. 

It’s not easy!! I too found keeping a food diary helped (even if a cheated a little) keep me accountable. 💕 

Hang in there! If you have access to a fitness club w: pools, that’s what’s working for me 

You can do this I know it’s not fun to see gains on the scale but you just have to find the right groove 

Log that food. Accountability 😀 

Keep Going...You Can and WILL do this! 

Sorry to hear that Debbie. The struggle is real but hang in there. The more you stress about it the harder it will get. Try to have a positive outlook of this negative situation. Do an assessment and see what was wrong and jot down points that can make you avoid making that mistake again. Just small changes will produce great results. We love you...have a blessed day.
