    I'm in too! Fingers crossed (and hard work) hopefully I can drop some weight! (I don't expect to lose any weight before Christmas but if I can maintain where I am during this crazy food season, I won't be disappointed).

    CW: 220
    GW: 160ish (I'm really not picky, I would be more than happy at that weight!)

    Welcome mrs muckdter Nice to met you.
    my name is Marie and I been a member of MFP for 6 years have stayed the same with give or take 2 to 3 lbs. every since But 2 weeks ao I stumble on a eating plan that I am happy with and comfortable with and its working. 185 is a good goal for you. After that if you feel like you want to lose more and I am sure you do. We will have to start another 20 lbs. challenge. you have already came a long way, Congratulations And the best of luck

    Is there a way to save this thread so I can go back to it periodically without losing it? **New to forums**
  • CALIECAT
    CALIECAT Posts: 12,530 Member
    yes there is. But I don't know how to explain it. When you have the thread you want click on it by using the star in your favorites. Maybe someone else can explain it better hope so iam not new here but I just dumb on the computer. Sorry
    Marie.

    Marie, I will try and explain how to keep this thread. If you notice at the top of the thread on the right hand side there is a white star just click on the star and will turn yellow. Then when you go to Recent Discussions click on the dark star and your thread should be there. Do this with all threads that you want to save. Hope this helps

    CALIECAT Posts: 12,530 Member

    Good to see you are having some healthy fats today with your avocado. You are doing great keeping the carbs down.

    I am trying to get on track but having a hard time. I will weigh in on Friday and see if I lost any. This time of year is so hard.
