    Yes, he’s a leader in Lose 1lb a week…he’s the primary driver of that group now and enormously supportive to its members. Without him the group would have folded a couple of years ago.

    Come and join us!

    My goodness, I forgot I had joined this group...Bella's post popped up for me and I had to figure out what general discussion this was...
    I guess this is where I met you PAV, Yooly and Laurie, so good thing! ❤️

    I have threads that I follow & participate in, like '60 years and up', but the 'lose 1lb a week' group is my 'home' I guess. 😄

    match boards = main boards (above)

    but I don't WANT to lose 1lb a week

    (actually I don't, in spite of how it may sound in context. What I would LIKE to do is maybe manage to continue to drift down at almost a lb a month on average till year end)

    You do realize that I am a rebel without a clue, right?

    Because I got pissed at seeing red all the time I played with my settings so that I would ALWAYS be in the red even when I was in the green! Because screw red--right?

    And when -495 goals to achieve -150 didn't work, I've moved to -695 which seems to be doing the trick... while I continue to always be above goal!

    I log because I WANT to. if I *HAD* to, I wouldn't log! :wink:

    Just about the ONLY times I haven't logged is during get-togethers with CCGGG, I do, more often that I should get distracted and don't weigh which a few years ago would have been inconceivable to me. But I still collect more than 2 or 3 weight ins per week. It's just that in the past it would have been daily.

    I am logging loosely in that I no longer look up the exact food data central (USDA standard reference) to pick an entry and often just pick something close enough... horror of horrors even adjusting the weight to hit the caloric value I want if the entry is not as expected.

    And I do feel a bit "responsible" to walk the walk if I am engaging in the talk :lol:

    Well i see that @BCLadybug888 is in there too!

    And I know that @mta is posting in the hike thread of a local to me lady who is doing some awesome hikes I would love to hit myself someday. She is in my general area. You should see the pictures there.

    Plus he and i had a scale spreadsheet thing going a while back... we could have used your accounting prowess! ;-)

    That said I think you all should join us here !!!! :wink:
