What tools did or do you use for weight loss?

Question

I’ve begun a lot of lifestyle changes. Working that plant based diet and getting back to my exercise routine. My question is what tools or habits did you incorporate into your weight loss routine that helped you stay focused,motivated, structured, and feel rewarded? What helped you the most?

Answer

So we have one major tool that we use and it doesn’t even include counting calories macro nutrients etc. Our biggest tool is cooking at home! At dinner we make food it’s appropriate for us but we make enough so that we can have it for lunch, too, the next day! 
Our diet is very different from any of the main stream but at the same time it has components.
Our diet is as follows:
-Dairy-Free
-Sugar-Free
-NO processed foods (Yes, that means cereal, spaghetti, bread, unless I make it, White flour, etc) 
I’ve gone from 215 at my heaviest to 179 JUST from changing my diet. Now, I do run and do yoga, but I wasn’t when I was initially loosing weight. 
I am full when I eat and I do have a limit of ONE cheat meal (usually wings and beer 😂) a week. 
We’ve been able to do this diet change since June, which has pretty much made it stick. We even made it through the holidays! 
Good luck!

Answer

Currently in the beginning process of losing weight but what’s keeping me motivated right now is knowing I’m getting healthy for myself and for my future child so I can live a healthier life them to live longer to be apart of their lives as long as possible and my husband i want to look bomb for my husband. He also encourages me.

Answer

That's amazing! Cooking my own meals (as close to "from scratch" as possible) and keeping a food diary has helped me stay accountable. I even give myself a star at the end of the day if I ate really well lol

Answer

I use the MyFitnessPal app for tracking calories/food to stay at deficit and I follow a loose 14:10 to 16:8 intermittent fasting regimen that makes it more sustainable for me.

Answer

The best thing for me is food tracking and meal planning. I use the Lose It app and literally track every bite I put in my mouth. It helps keep me accountable.
