Hi Michelle, my name is Larry, I'm an executive with a Professional NHL Hockey Club. In addition to my professional career, I’m an author, with most of my books being in crowds and human behavior. I’ve also written my memoir, Buck Seventy-Two, A Destiny of Will, and a book entitled Life Choices, the Path I Chose. Life Choices exams our decisions and use the acronym CHOICES as personal challenges. I'll be more than happy to send you or anyone in this group a complimentary digital copy. One reason that I’m in this group is to heed my own advice...
Thanks for the reveal and connecting on a personal level, much appreciated, we are in this together.

I've pretty much dropped breakfast since I am putting that collagen powder in my coffee. If I AM hungry after that, it's a keto slim fast shake.7

Mon May 24th/21 Check In
SW 162lbs
Goal Weight *New* 150lbs
{Ideal Weight 140lbs}
Today's Weight = 157lbs
So I have gained weight - no surprises there!!
About 2 lbs since last Check In May 17th I think🤔 Since beginning MFP mid January/21, my biggest loss was around 8lbs(ish)which I achieved around mid April. So that took around 3 months of fairly concerted efforts towards tracking food and aiming to stay within my specific caloric intake in order to achieve an energy deficit plus adding in exercise in the form of walking.
Starting today I need to re-commit to this in order to reach my NEW goal of 150lbs - though I don't know if I will make that July 31st marker! But that's ok I will be happy with the #'s going down and feeling better like I did a few weeks a go.
Have a great week....Now I have to go back and read up what has been going with everyone!!

@JenT304 I need that Collagen powder for my face & hair/nails!! I'm 54 this year and lately my hair has become thinner and of course those 'fine lines' have become more prominent😉

Daily Macro's met? Nope! Still super tired and I let it get the better of me and have been eating junk. I didn't want to post, but I usually bail when I go up on the scale, so here I am trying to keep myself accountable this time. I've got a descent meal plan for tomorrow. Onwards...10 -

I’d be loving the playoffs more if the Maple Leafs weren’t beating the Canadiens, lol! But in all fairness the Leafs are a much better team and are hungry for the cup this year. Our Canadiens are completely looking outplayed!

I lived in Montreal in the 80s so was a big habs fan. Lived in toronto last 20 years so became a reluctant leafs fan at first, now an enthusiastic one. I'm watchin all the series though.3 -

I was married, but no children.
I do have nine nieces and nephews and many great nieces and great nephews, and I like to think that they think I'm an awesome uncle and great uncle.

Made some good choices this week: worked out twice (weights and elliptical); cooked a delicious healthy meal twice, limited snacking because I ate it all already LOL, and limited the sweets at worked.10

check-in:
I have hovered in the low 250's for all of May. This past Monday, I finally broke through, to 249.9!
Now, I'm over 250 again, due to having a couple family gettogethers/meals during a nephew's visit. But, I have been swimming up a storm this past week (is that possible?). I swam 8 times in the past 6 days for a total distance of 12,200 yards (that's almost 7 miles!). And I'm back to eating more conservatively, so I'm expecting some happy results this Friday (knock on wood).
Monday is Memorial Day in the US, so if you plan on celebrating w/ a barbeque and goodies, try eating extra light this weekend in anticipation of that. 7
