Clothing is a far better indicator than scales. I manage my weight gain by clothes now, starts getting tight rein it in a bit and behaveQuestion time!
Does anyone track their progress in pictures (of yourself, taken specifically for that purpose)?
If so, how often do you do that? Based on time (eg, monthly), or weight (eg, for every stone lost), or something else?
Can you see a difference? At what point can you see it for yourself?
Related: is anyone trying to fit into a particular item of clothing and using that to track their progress?
If so, how often are you trying it on, and is that based on time or weight lost or anything else?
Is anyone finding doing any of the above helpful? Motivational? Or the opposite?

That really doesn’t make sense! Maybe you need to see your Gp so they can check your thyroid?Me: has 1400 calories and does over 10K steps
My body: let's keep gaining weight
Back up to my starting weight. What the actual fuckwish I could just chop off all my fat.
I think I might have to go back to sw, at least that worked.
I've (self diagnosed) myself with IBS & I'm really thinking maybe I should do FODMAP to see if there's things I should be avoiding in day to day. That might help. Just wish losing weight was easy.That really doesn’t make sense! Maybe you need to see your Gp so they can check your thyroid?
If not, it might be the cals in are off. Double check you’re factoring in cooking oils and the weight of foods isn’t off. When I gained back a bit two months ago it was me under estimating the cooking oils.
I’ve ibs too and I have thankfully after a long time figured out what upsets my stomach and can’t eat (certain cheeses, deli meat) and how much of other things that are tricky I can handle (gluten being the big one). I do think that by our bowels being inflammatory it affects weight loss so figured what suits and doesn’t should make a big difference. If you’re not ready to do FODMAP just write how you feel after each meal and before the end one and then you can start to deduct what’s working. Sometimes when you stop eating something or limit it when you go back to trying it more the reaction of your body is stronger. That’s the case for me now so it’s like a big alarm going offI've (self diagnosed) myself with IBS & I'm really thinking maybe I should do FODMAP to see if there's things I should be avoiding in day to day.

Congrats! How have you lost it?Jumping into this thread. I’ve tried for years to lose weight and failed. I have maintained / lost since my biggest weight in 2020 so it has been more positive but I’m determined to shift it now.
Since 2020, I’ve lost (and regained and lost again) 21lbs. I weighed myself Monday and I’m currently the lowest weight I’ve been since 2019 so it’s spurred me on to continue and put my all into it. I still have 3/4 stone left but I’m feeling positive and optimistic so fingers crossedgood luck everyone
Walk everywhere you possibly can. I didn't appreciate how much energy I used pushing a pram until I stopped.Any tips on how to loose weight post birth ( 11 weeks) and after a C section with twins? ( 2nd pregnancy so a huge hanging apron)

Second the walking! That and stretching is pretty much all I did post birth, along with focusing on quick nutritious meals (ie not so much calorie counting) started longer daily walks around the same time as you are now post birth, lost 7kg nice and steady, about 1kg a monthAny tips on how to loose weight post birth ( 11 weeks) and after a C section with twins?
