i thought it'd be nice to have a forum thread where we could talk about our fitness/health progress! i've been trying to get more into health lately and go to the gym more often, eat healthy, more protein and water, etc etc. i'm even looking into beginners tips for weightlifting. so if you'd like to discuss gym activities, health tips, yoga, weight loss progress, strength training progress, etc, then this is the thread for you!

right now, i'm still just using the machines at the gym instead of free-lifting or whatever they call it, since i'm weak asf lol. but i'm still noticing progress! i went from barely being able to do one crunch on the crunch-machine at the lowest weight setting, to being able to do almost 10! i know it still isn't much, but... everyone starts somewhere, right?

so, how is everyone else doing in their health and fitness journeys? any good progress made lately, or tips for others?

Over the past 2 months I've lost close to 15 pounds with diet alone! I'm still too insecure to actually go to a gym, and too unmotivated to do at-home stuff lol. My job does have me walking for 4-7 hours a day which has helped.
I've really focused on portions, because if you think about the size of your stomach (with the normal amount of expanding of course) a lot of pre-prepared food is way too much. Take McDonalds for example, you order a burger, fries, and a drink. Now think about all that condensed in your stomach. It's kinda a lot.
I've also had so much more energy, and I don't even miss junk food. I had a cheeto a month ago, and it was so bland yet so intense, it was gross. I'm a sucker for mini eggs, but last week I couldn't finish a small bag over 2 days cause they were just too sweet. It feels really good to have reset my taste buds to enjoying real food again.
(I also love beans, like way too much now lol)

thats awesome, i'm super happy for you!! yeah portioning is probably my biggest struggle, ive had unhealthy relationships with food in the past so i sometimes still struggle with eating too much or not enough. hearing how good you feel after the change inspires me though!

i totally understand feeling nervous about the gym. i was too scared to go for a long time. the gym i go to is planet fitness and their whole thing is anti-judgement so that helps a lot, i see a lot of similar beginners like me and it makes me feel better. i actually went to the gym today and did one and a half sets of crunches! i'm slowly strengthening my core and i'm so proud!

I was the exact same with food! And I say start small, it really helped in the beginning. Just start with eating 2 less chips than you normally would, and maybe waiting a few minutes if you're still hungry after eating something of a decent size to make sure you really are hungry. 
And that's awesome! My core is one of the areas I really want to see an increase of strength in, maybe I'll try to do a few crunches a day and see where that takes me :)

No exercise, but over the last 3 months I've lost 25 lbs! So that's something. I really should workout to speed up progress though. And I HATE drinking water so that's really tough for me.

That's awesome! For the drinking water, my recommendations are flavoured water or flavoured sparkling water. It definitely is tough to start drinking water though

I've lost 75 lbs in the past 7 months ^ ^ I can also run for 5 minutes in total, which doesn't seem like a lot, but I used to not be able to run at all!
