    Hi good people! 20 lbs is a good short term goal for me. I lost focus for a few months and gained a few more pounds. So, I'm in!

    I've lost 3.5#s this month on track to make my 20# weight loss goal by September 1. In fact, if I don't plateau I should be down a few #s more than 20 but you never know! How is everyone else doing?

    I'm glad you all have kept this going. I apologize for not keeping up.
    I have several neurological conditions and was having a bad spell. But I'm back and I'm please to post this:

    I need to get this weight off and keep it off. I do a clean and gluten free (Celiac) diet. I just need motivation and accountability. No criticisms or unhealthy foods mentioned, please. It just doesn't help. Let's support each other and stay in touch here.

    I am in. I am learning about the brain and how it affect changing. I am counting on this information on this for help.

    Serafina57 good for you & djspacecaptain as well.

    I think It would help everyone a lot if there were more interactive posts...talking about successes, challenges, exercise etc.

    Here goes:
    We just put in a pool so I'm adding water aerobics to change out my usual yoga & ab/core I usually do with dumbbells. I added a few calories more since I've been coming in about 1000/1200 (1360 is what the MFP plan came up with) and I upped my loss to 6#s for thirty days. So guess I was eating too little & my body was in protection mode. I never eat my exercise calories back mainly because I have a very bad knee & can't walk the miles many of you do.
