The Water app definitely helped! I wasn't much of a water drinker, but this past week I have had 64oz each day. This is the first time in over 15 years that I have been under 120! Woo hoo!7 -
Cheer is good, like "Yaaay!".

A question for those of you who post progress pics on MFP: where (i.e. on which part of the site) do you do it?0

Struggles/success: I am healing well. I was given the all clear to start light cardio. Elliptical and incline walking. Not my fave but I will take what I can get. As a result I am clearer mentally and happier. @WallyAmadeus and @KelseyRL I just started a cleanse called the clean program (I do it without the supplements). Basically an elimination of alcohol, processed food, caffeine and some other stuff for 21 days. Also liquid breakfast and dinner. I am a sugar junkie and a snacking junkie. All of this to say, I decided to go hardcore for a finite period of time in an attempt to “recallibrate”. I know you guys were struggling a bit with focus, so I thought I would share the fact that, for me, I have to go nuclear to get to normal. Have a great week.5 -

Hello, i'm back, finally weighed myself yesterday. Pleased to see that over Christmas and exam period i'd only put on 3 pounds. Stupid to be so scared of a number on the scale. Got a long way to go, 130 pounds looks quite different on a 49 year old body that does no exercise (beyond a lot of walking) than it does on a 20 something body. Body shape has definitely changed. Treated myself to a new DVD for over 40s , and my exercise goal this week is to do it twice and go to the gym once!3 -

Exams are the main priority, you'll catch up on workouts later!1 -

True for a 34 y/o couch potato as well...

Feeling good about where my weight is now, back to normal after the whole food poisoning thing a while back.
I am focusing more on fitness these days. Not doing much cardio, but mostly working legs/booty and abs. I still have a few weeks left before my shoulder will be “all clear” for upper body exercises. Also, I have been doing yoga in the evenings which I really enjoy.3 -

I'm feeling good about maintenance so far. I expect my weight to spike a bit this week, from over eating a bit and impending TOM, but I feel prepared to not freak out and just keep on with it.3 -
New job and Xmas have taken their toll on my weight since September so I just want to get back to my comfortable weight and maintain it.

Starting: 150
Last week: 149
This week: 148.5
My goal is two lbs a month, so I have to up my exercise and reduce my carbs (carbs aren't bad, but I find my carbs tend towards the processed white ones.)
I'm working on focusing and imprinting one major goal a month. This month it is to track in MFP daily and to keep within/under my calorie goal using my exercise calories.
Whatever I"m thinking about is that I really want to build some sustainable habits, and tracking is the most basic one.
Congratulations to everyone for continuing on this thread! I'm grateful to the women who sustain this! I'm also happy to be friends with everyone, so just send me a message.

I always thought it was good, unless the cheer comes from a teenager (we've got one of those...) in which case it is ironic, and means something not so good.

We attended a birthday party yesterday with homemade dark chocolate ganache cake! We also had dinner out one night with friends and lots of dark stout beer. Needless to say I didn't stay in my calorie deficit
this week. I'm hoping that things level out over the course of this week. I'm glad that the numbers aren't worse than they are. Other than those two dinners I stuck to my plan. It could have been worse,
Then again, I could have had way more restraint!4 -

January Goal - 167.0 lbs
Hey everyone. I had a bad week. Thanks for the support on my feed from those of you who are my friends (If anyone wants to be friends, feel free to add me). I had a bad week all-round in life, not just in weight loss. But things have settled down now and I'm feeling better.
I've set a new January goal. I feel I need to just start over from right now instead of thinking about where I was in November. So right now my moving average is jumping around 167.something and I'd by the end of the month, I'd really just like it to settle on 167.0 or less. Then I'll just focus on loosing a pound a week again and not get so caught up in everything else. The process is actually simple if I don't get all in-my-head about it.
My birthday's on May 20th and we're going on a beach holiday for it, so I want to be down to 155 by then. That's well within my reach if I just focus on losing a pound a week from right where I am now.
Here's to a new start! Good luck ladies, let's do this!

Down almost a whole pound! Woohoo! I know its not much but considering I've been steadily gaining a pound a week this is success enough for me! I cut back on the processed carbs over the weekend and I believe this is the reason for my slight weight loss so I'm definitely looking forward to what the Keto diet will do for me the next couple weeks.
@rianneonamission I started measuring and so far I'm consistently 28" waist and 38" hips. Maybe now if I can stick to my diet plan I will see a downward trend.
@RobinAlex666 Way to meet your January goal so soon! Great job
@Starflight00 You can add progress photos using the MFP app on your phone. There's a little "+" sign at the bottom right of the app's home screen and if you tap it, it gives you a few options. Choose to add "status" then at the bottom of that screen it will say in blue "add photo". Hope this helps!7 -
Well I don't trust my scale anymore. I hopped on it this morning and it said I gained 5 lbs. I moved it a few inches and it read that I only gained one lb. But I'm feeling great and my clothes are starting to get looser! I could have gained because I've been working out more. Who knows
