Good morning all + hello Brigit!
Iwhelan - what a crazy experience it must have been to fly a plane! You will get smaller and fly again, I know it!
Sara - you will come back around soon with better food. 🌟
My challenge right now is to get some exercise in besides normal daily walking. I feel as if I'm in hibernation mode.
As Sara often says, I will put on some tunes and do a little bit of dancing here and there throughout the day. Nobody is looking, so why not?

Good evening,
Dragon was on a mission this afternoon and the speed at which she took off and her facial expression reminded me too much of the Wicked witch actress in the beginning of the movie while she is bicycle riding. I dont know what caused it, but I hope to not be involved. We shall see.
I am 3300 steps beyond my weekly goal - get steps in after work until my hip joints have had enough. This is how I am dealing with the horrible news on TV, stress at work and too many ladies at church dying or in fragile health.
Got my Valentines Decorations for work- that was nice and quick. So things will look a lot less drab.
My focus this week is also on getting to bed at a good time.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.2 -

Good morning all~~
Yesterday I bought many different bags of frozen vegetables and vegetable medleys to have on hand. Some of this stuff can really boost a meal or a soup or an omelet.
Sara - I wonder what you will learn today about the Monster Madness Mystery.
Good for you with the Valentine's Day decor 💖
Waves to Missy and Sugar Free Squirrel and all who stop by later on~~

Good evening,
After work nap went way over, alarm went off but it was warm and so...
Lana that is a good idea with the frozen vegetables. I am in that "what to have to eat next week?" thinking and I am just shaking my head.

Good evening,
Took nap with earplugs I have no clue what they are doing upstairs but dang its loud.
Crawled home after another fun packed exhausting week. Fun packed might not be exactly correct but I am trying to flip things so they seem better.
It is Friday - time to run to the Happy Hour- those C-boys better be ready I am in need of many drinks and snacks.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.2 -
Hi All, I’m Rae, another serial starter!
I lost about 30lbs when I used MFP before but put it all back on + another 20.
The nice thing about being a serial starter is I still learnt a lot on my previous attempts. I don’t have to relearn food logging. I know that forcing myself to eat super clean and healthy food which I don’t like is just going to lead to a binge. But also spending all my calorie allowance on junk food will make me feel tired and rubbish all the time.
I am getting married in August which is a massive motivator for me. I know that is not enough time to get to my ultimate goal weight, but if I could lose 50lbs that would still be amazing!
I’ve lost 5lbs since starting 2 weeks ago.
SW: 295lbs, CW 290
Would love to find friends with who also have/had 100lbs to lose. I was pretty active on my previous account and I miss seeing posts and updates on my newsfeed!4 -

Wow, the days are flying by on the calendar!
Rae - welcome to our little corner of the world. Check in whenever you'd like. Congratulations on your upcoming marriage. We are here to cheer you along!
Sara - I hope you have some pleasant diversions on tap for your weekend. Take a trip upstairs and see what they are doing. I suppose it is workmen making the noise, and the new peeps move in on Feb 1st?
Missy - I am excited for you that you start your classes on Monday!
Last night I got into a crazed snacking fit; the scale tracked it for me.

Me too! I had access to the course for the past two weeks. Logged in and checked out the class to get a head start. And drum roll! Tuition reimbursement was approved!!!3 -
Hi all. Hope everyone is having a nice Saturday.
Last night was pizza night. Yes I had pizza, but only 2 and I logged it and made sure I had room in my calorie budget.
Today I hit a new milestone 228.8! Starting weight, 235. Next goal, 219.
I will be traveling for work all next week, meals provided, praying I stay strong.

Iwhelan - congratulations on hitting your new milestone and dealing well with pizza!
Missy - So glad to hear that your tuition reimbursement has been approved. That must feel good.
Well, evidently the scale has been tracking my inability to stay away from donuts and M&Ms. I will be cooking up some vegetables to have on hand over the next few days.
My goal for the week is to get some daily exercise, other than just steps.
Waves to all who stop by today ☀️

It does! And I got a job offer today! So excited!2 -
Good evening,
Another day when the post I thought I posted was waiting for me to post.....oops
Missy, so glad the tuition came through and the new job offer. Rainbows and glitter moments. So nice to hear good news but yours especially as you were working so hard for both.
Officially in my bubble I am brain dead, but it is so cold it might be frozen. That may not be a bad thing at the moment as hot chocolate is my go to.
Scale is a 5 letter dirty word right now. I need to connect some good health dots and move onwards.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.1 -
*** January 31 ***
Missy - Congrats on the job offer. When do you have to let them know?
Sara - Sorry that it is so cold out there. You will connect your dots very soon, I know it! Hugs~
Well, yesterday's killer sore throat has morphed into a full-blow head cold. Jeez. I'm having some soup and going back to bed.
See y'all tomorrow~~

I let my boss know today. It’s an internal job offer so as soon as the system says accept it sends notification. So I had a conversation with him prior. He and the rest of the office are very happy for me and thinks the new position will be a great fit and I’ll excel there.2

Missy - Excellent! Good for you!
Today I must get out and get some more chicken soup and some cough medicine.....

Good evening,
If you hear snoring soon it will be me. Put nice little dents in my car trying to squeeze into a spot from the wrong angle.
Lets just say I am glad today is over.
Lana hope you feel better.
Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.
Yesterdays post - note to self must push, post reply.
7500 steps today - involved moving my car with ice on the windows to a space less isolated, to a fire drill at work those steps all add up.
Lana !! get back under the covers with your soup and feel better.
Wishing all a good night, again - stay safe and sane out there.0 -

Thank you!!! I am so happy too! Relieved.
That scale can be so mean sometimes.

Hey Y'all~
Sara - Oh so sad to hear about the car. Dang. Sending Cabana Boys to help take your mind off of it. 🌴
Missy - I heard about the weather/icy temps in the Northeast. Thank goodness you have all those fur babies to sleep with!! Seriously! My friends in Fall River Massachusetts are bundled up in bed with heating pads and an electric blanket 🥶
Hugs you guys 🤗

Good evening,
Heating pad is also my best friend lately, so I dont have to run the heater as really doesnt do much.
Today's work meeting coworker held up her teacup dog and how cute!!! Need to clean house first. That dog is probably one of those new breeds and has a price tag to match.
Hope you are feeling better Lana.

Yeah it’s going to be brutally cold. Huskies are thriving. Bichon loves her sweater but she much prefers to be curled up in my lap. Can’t believe she is going to be 13 this year.
Oh my goodness! That’s not good for your friends. Hopefully they get some warmth. Fall River is just about an hour or so away from me.0 -

How cute. Why is it the tinier the breed the price goes up.0 -
Happy Friday and TGIF all over the place,
Cold and where did my Friday night go? Dang
Taking a challenge through work to eat less sugar next week- right pick Valentine's day the second favorite holiday of dentists - first is Halloween.
Lana hope you are doing better.
Taking as much of my frustration and negative emotion out on my feet and walking more. Feet are not that happy.

Good morning all~~
I seem to be half-way back to normal with this cold.
Sara - I hope that things take a positive turn over the next few days, although it is good to get the steps in for whatever reason. I hope that you have some upbeat things going on this weekend, maybe at church?
Missy - My friends in Fall River are cat people. I wonder if their cats cuddle up to them when it's cold.
I bet Kiara is happy to have her sweater! (I refer back to that holiday card you did with all of their names!)
I hope that we all warm up soon, wherever we are..... ☀️🌴

Maybe they do? Depends on the cat I guess. Haha she’s wearing the sweater now! It’s freezing. Trying to convince huskies that being out all day is not a thing and to come inside to get warm is good. Bribing with treats to come in is working for now.
