Help with Blog?
This isn't really motivation/support, but I'm hoping someone more tech savvy than myself could be of some help?

Like right now I can't see my gadget for Events…

Pasta, Pasta Everywhere But Not a Drop to Eat
This getting healthy thing would be sooooooooooo much easier if I could just hide in my house, keep to “the plan”, count my progress on MyFitnessPal, and finally emerge from the house a new, skinny me. Viola! But, I’m not a hermit! And, it would be soooooooo much less of a challenge if when I do go out into the world there…

Still Going After All that!

I'm a mother of two. My baby is 30 years old, though. But, I think I still have most of the 'baby fat' . I had my gallbladder out and had…

Anybody else in just a real good mood?

That was then, this is now!
I used to think that stress was the only way that I could lose weight. When my brother died in 2006, I lost 30+ pounds. I didn't eat for a solid 2 weeks, nor did I sleep. As time moved on, I gained back the 30 pounds plus some. In 2010, while I was going through my divorce I lost 20+ pounds. Again, I wasn't eating. In the…

Wow, how's this for will power!!
Last night my fella and I were having a pizza from the freezer for our dinner.

Anyway, i had worked out my calories for the pizza and then i…

Rewards?
Do you have a reward planned for when you reach your goal? Do you reward yourself for a good day, a good week, or a certain number of pounds lost?
