Happy birthday @k80flec. How fun to have a New Year's Eve birthday.
I went for a brisk 4 mile walk this morning which puts me at 7/75. Finally stepped an a scale this morning and confirmed what I already knew - I've been eating poorly the last few months and have to lose some weight. @kar328 - I love the blank slate idea - that's what I need right now.0 -
@JTH11706 - I feel your pain. This morning my scales revealed that I was at my heaviest since August '13 (ETA - it might only be 7/8 lbs ... but ...). They then went on to wish me Happy Birthday - with fireworks, followed by Happy New Year .... with more fireworks.
How rude!!1 -
Hello to all!! Happy New Year!! May we have more Love and Peace towards each other this year throughout the WHOLE World!!
I'm in for 50 miles this month, after taking a couple months hiatus ..... too much work and my first Grandbaby......a beautiful baby girl!!
Thanks for keeping up with the miles!!

@clepant Thank you. I was told to ice it. I wanted to get out there and walk...I did and made it worse. Now sitting with two ice bags on it. **sigh**
Got on the recumbent bike yesterday. No foot or ankle issues. Thank goodness!
Adding 14.76 miles on New Year's Day. Meet with our trainer today. Don't know if I'll get on the bike, but I'll keep thinking about it!!
Hope everyone has a good day.

For those that are asking, my jaw is slowly getting better. Pain is less and I can chew a bit. Due to the holiday period I was not able to get in for an adjustment yet. That did not however stop me from eating crap over the holiday. Got to get rid of those extra pounds

Oh that is rude. I'm in the same boat - I haven't been this heavy in years. It's ok though, I know what I need to do. I'm not going back to where I was before MFP and MYAC. I will work it off and get back where I need to be. I take comfort in the fact that I've managed to stay in the healthy weight range for over 6 years now - although at the moment I'm on the border of overweight. Sad to say my scale did not move this morning but it will.
3 mile run this morning puts me at 10/751 -
... adding s few more miles from the last few days!

I am right there with you Janet. My knee is no excuse, but when they tell you to ice and elevate, you really can’t exercise. So I boredom eat. But I too know what I need to do to get the job done. I am not buying new clothes. I am the highest have I been in 6 years. Not where I started but not happy with myself. Slapping myself.@JTH11706 - I feel your pain.

Accountabity ..... I am here because I said to myself .... Enough is enough.... In 2013 I weighed 253 lbs... With excerise (biking and walking) and changing everything that went into my mouth ... I changed me... I got down to 158 lbs.... That was my lowest... If you ever wonder why I do so many miles every day, every month,... It is the fear of gaining all that weight back.... There is no way I will ever let myself get that unhealthy ... So today I weigh 195 lbs... But I am stronger and so much healthier ... Do it for yourself and no one else... You are stronger than you can ever imagine ....2

** on a weekly basis.... I am going to weigh in ... this I my way of accountability....
It will just be addional number at the bottom of a post but I will know what it is ...2 -

I...uh...ugh....stepped on the scale this morning. I gained several pounds during the festive period. The first year I have done that. It probably wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't taken 4 training days off the bike. Lesson learned for me.

I appreciate all you guys do and post. It's an inspiration and helps me not give up. I work too much and that leads to not eating healthy. I appreciate seeing I'm not the only one with struggles. Thanks for all your help. Especially to Dave and Janet for putting all these numbers in a spreadsheet. Not an easy task. Thanks guys.

Dave and Janet ^^^^what Dean just said! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
@LovemyAlex, @anaconda469, @clepant, @Janet...looks like we are all in the same boat...surprised the boat is not sinking...we must get serious about our exercise and the food we eat.
I will not gain the weight back. My heaviest was 192.2. My kids were little and I could not get down on the floor to play with them. But more importantly, if I was on the floor and something happened, I couldn't move fast enough to help them. That scared me. I have 10.6 pounds to get rid of, and it starts now!! I will also post my numbers at the bottom of my post.
EGADS!!!
