    Katla, Thank you, that's very sweet. I'm blushing I'm sure. After being teased from as young as I remember about being fat, chubby, whatever, it's hard for me to accept compliments without feeling embarrassed. My youngest daughter for several years has got after me to "just say thank you" so from the bottom of my heart, thank you <3

    Katla - thanks! It has become routine. I actually found things that come natural to me. I gave up everything that I was doing that caused weight gain and adopted things that worked best for my lifestyle :)

    Janetr - You look fantastic! The glasses are a perfect fit!

    Have a great night everyone!

    Pip, I'm so sorry about Bullwinkle's diagnosis, so hard when we know we're losing our furbabies.....
    Michele, thank you but it was my mother in law that passed recently. My mom passed just over 8 years ago, I still miss her.
    Janet, hair cut and glasses look great!

    Wow! 153 posts since I last was on here. I finally caught up.

    Viv/UK I’m so sorry to hear about your loss. I’ll pray that the Lord gives you and your family peace in the coming days.

    Janet I love your hair and glasses! Very becoming on you!

    Heather Those trainers are cool! I’m sure everyone will get a kick out of them!

    Lanette Do you have neuropathy? I do and take Gabapentin and use various creams on my feet at night to help with the burning and prickly feelings.
    My balance is awful due to it and I trip, run into walls, and can’t walk straight sometimes! People must think I’m drunk! LOL

    IPHONE BATTERIES You can order batteries from Amazon. They come with tiny screwdrivers so you can open up the phone. About $10-$15.

    I’ve did pretty good today! I try to stay at 1350/cal a day, but I was at 1191 today and had excess from exercise. Even after the chocolate muffin mess up I still lost .8 lbs!
    I was kind of tired today and woke up with my right leg hurting. I lifted some boxes in the garage which I shouldn’t have. So I was paying for it! Habitat for Humanity is coming on Thursday to pick up a sofa and an old TV so I was looking for things I would like to give to them. It’s been cool in the mornings so maybe I’ll try again tomorrow.

    Have a good evening/morning!

    Have any of you done a stair climbing challenge, race, etc.?

    https://blog.myfitnesspal.com/the-5-best-stair-climbing-races-to-run/


    I climb stairs quite regularly but haven't done it at all competitively, or at a running pace. There are, however, a couple sets of stairs in this area which I think people do take on as a challenge.

    Pip-so sorry about Bullwinkle.

    Janetr- love the hair and glasses!! Great choices!

    Took a wonderful 3 mile walk on our Waterfront Park while my daughter was in dance class. The sun was still a little intense, but the breeze coming off the river made it just perfect!

    Hi all, is this a group of women over 50? Am I allowed to join? I have gained 10 plus pounds I am really unhappy about and need to lose ASAP. I need motivation and accountability!

    Yes, we are a group of 50+ something women. You are more than welcome to join us. It helps us respond if you tell us a little about yourself and sign each post with a name you would like us to call you. Because we are a large group and many names duplicated, if you add your location behind your name it's very helpful.

    Pip: Bless you and Winkle. I teared up reading your plans for seeing her transition over the rainbow bridge. How is Bootz?

    Janetr: Hair and glasses = Winners!

    Katla: Hope you can set plans for visiting your kids.

    For the first time since end of April, I did shopped in a grocery store. Trader Joe's is smaller than Walmart, so it wasn't extremely taxing. But by the time I unloaded everything, my feet and ankles were feeling it.

    Stay well friends. We can do this.

    morning ladies~
    Pip~ ohhh poor Bullwinkle, I know you and Kirby have done all you can do.. and will continue to do so.. losing our furry children is so tough xoxox
    Janet`~ Love the hair and glasses...well I dont know if stress causes weight gain but somehow I gained 5 lbs overnight eating the same stuff I do daily..
    actually planning the reunion wasn't hard. at this stage of the game we are getting together and enjoying each others company... we all grew up in a small town.. and we figured we would have it on Friday night of Labor day weekend, so that people can have the rest of the weekend to do things..
    going to have my tea and relax and then get dressed...
