Randi, hope your dexa scan is the same as the last one.
After keeping kids last todays, this was a profitable day. Food logged. 30 minutes on elliptical. Church in the morning and church at night. Yay!
Babysitting tomorrow. I have to get ip a five in the morning and leave my house by 5:40. Hope I remember to weigh when I get up. My goal was half a pound. Not sure if I will make it or not. I ate badly on babysitting days.0 -
I lost .4
Every little loss is a win
Even not gaining is a win

Good morning. Mind if I jump back in? I may not be daily, but I am looking for a small, more intimate group to share and enjoy support. I have lost around 11#, but now seem stuck.
Hope you have a great day.1 -
Good job, Cat! I'm up 0.5.
Welcome back, Jan! Congratulations on the 11 pounds!
I'm thinking about tracking during the week and taking a break from it on weekends. I'll give it a try this week and see how it goes.
Have a great day.1 -
Eleven pounds is great Jan. We all know how hard that is. Keep up the good work. Pretty soon those scales will start to move again.
Randi, I am skipping tracking on babysitting days. It is pretty much impossible anyway. My youngest son took a position with a university a couple of hours away, so when August comes, my babysitting jobs will be cut in half. The 3 grandboys who still live in town are all school age, though, so I have 6 hours a day to eat properly and exercise when I keep them.1 -
Did 8 mi of cycling and 45 min of Urban Kick yesterday. My tail is dragging today, but it was great!2

Hello! I'm new to this group. I stopped for years and back. Same struggle, but I've been exercising daily, just not long. I'm working on balancing my life and realizing I am the one in control of my choices.2

Hi all, I lost 1/2 a pound so cutting out bread and I have talked my husband into having less potatoes so let's see if that works.
Good luck all
oh tomorrow I am trying parsnip and carrot rosti for tea hopefully they will be tasty3 -
Ann, please share a report on parsnip and carrot rosti.0

Good Morning - good morning gals - are you gearing up of the holiday weekend.
Mine will be very quiet and I am ok with that.
Lots of rain and storms, I pray all are safe.
Have a great day.3 -
Quiet weekend planned here. We'll be doing some gardening, weather permitting. I don't have the energy to host a cookout right now.
Happy Thursday!2 -
I visited my childhood hometown yesterday and my sister and I flowered our loved ones in the cemetery. So I don’t have to deal with holiday traffic. Hooray! I have a good book to read and a sewing project to tackle, so looking forward to staying home.
Even though I fixed non-diet food today, i am still good with calorie counts and exercise. Sometimes fried chicken with gravy and biscuits are just worth it😂2 -
No change from last week. Raining here, but I have plenty of indoor projects to keep me busy. Happy Monday!1
-
Lost .2, which is practically nothing but grateful for no gain. Big storms going on here for the holiday weekend and lots of folks with no power.
I often think of Gerri, who founded this group, and wish she would pop by and say she is okay. I feel like I am missing a friend, even thhough we never met in real life.1 -
Happy Monday! Quiet weekend here. I am a teacher and we start summer break this weekend. I'm in recovery mode. No change in my weight but I logged meals 4 days this week. So there's a positive step!
Hope everyone has a great week!2 -
Hey AngiK, what do you teach? Is it easier for you to lose weight in summers or during the school year? I do so much better with eating when I am busy. My sister thinks being busy is stressful and makes her eat more.0

perhaps add more cumin in but my grandson doesn't like spice1 -
Is everyone gone?
The hard part of retirement for me is keeping track of the days.1 -
Down 1.4.
We're not gone Jan, just quiet. Personally, I am discouraged. I don't want to come here and whine, so when my mood is not upbeat, I tend to say nothing at all.
I love retirement, even with having trouble keeping track of time. The Monday holiday last week really threw things off for me.
Weekend was good. We went to NH for my nephew's son's birthday party. I got to meet his youngest son who's already 7 months old. He's very smiley and not at all shy. Within minutes of meeting me, he let meet hold him and feed him his bottle. 1 -
Up a pound. Ate in restaurants too many times last week plus no structured exercise on 4 babysitting days. I am not surprised and it is entirely my own fault. I hope to try harder this week.
Jan, I agree it is hard to keep track of days. I sort of like that part. 😊
Great job on that loss Randi. Keep
Up the good work.
I got a new book on an anti-inflammatory diet for arthritis. My fingers are becoming very bent sidesways. I need to do something and the rheumatologist said the diet may halt progression. If only I can find the gumption to give up red meat. So hard for a kid who grew up on a cow farm eating hamburgers for breakfast! 😂0 -
i am still here but i have been so busy lately, sorry.0

Hi all!
New group member here - just turned 60 in May. I recently decided to finally get serious about the foods I’m eating (primarily WFPB) and walking 2 miles a day in a weighted vest. Just lost 10 pounds and feel better than I have in a long time!
Hope everyone is having a fabulous day!

Welcome Rockin! Congrats on your weight loss.
Please stick around and inspire us all.
Saw a news report with Dr Dean Ornish. A small clinical trial used his reverse heart disease diet plus exercise plus strength training plus socialization to halt and even improve Alzheimer’s. And it is FREE. No meds. Details on Ornish.com
He thinks the combo could prevent the disease if started early enough.
Beautiful day in the Virginia mountains. High temp of 72 is forecast. Tomorrow I turn 71!!! How do the years sneak up on a person like this? Hank took me out for breakfast since I will have the two youngest grands tomorrow. I ate everything bad for me. I will try to straighten up on Monday 😊
Anybody got big plans for the summer?0 -
Happy Birthday, Cat!!!

Hope you had a lovely birthday Cat
Well done Rockin on you weight loss
I need to motivate myself a bit more with strength training exercises so hopefully this will be my week.
Keep being awesome everybody.2 -
Decided not to weigh today. My feet and ankles are very swollen and I know the water weight would throw me off. I have never had this before. Guess I will get checked out when I get time. Babysitting next two days.1
