    Will be 43 in October and I need to improve my health. According to the doctor I need to lose 40 lbs. I have been going to the gym and training for the Bataan Memorial Death March but still can't get the scale to move. I know I have just got to keep going but really consider eating ice cream instead.

    Wow! What an accomplishment! At least now you know you can achieve whatever you set your sights on, so you know those 7lbs will be gone before you know it.

    Hi ladies - I’m new to MFP. My biggest frustration is that losing weight for me now is soooooo much slower and harder than when I was younger with more free time. The challenge of sticking with a program with the duration and discipline needed to see any results while juggling all the other demands of life is daunting. But I’m gonna try! If you’re in the same boat, I’d love to add friends here and help keep each other on track. Happy Tuesday!

    I am right there with you! I am sadly accepting that the days of mindless snacking and drinking has got to come to an end and disciplined eating needs to be in control!

    Made it to the gym this evening and felt so motivated!

    Great job!!

    Thank you! It’s been a busy week with kid school activities so I was very glad I committed and didn’t talk myself into not going. It’s s struggle! My kids lead busier lives than I and I’m just a tagalong haha!

    It is hard! 3 kids all with after school activities - and Saturday and Sunday!! Scheduling time for myself has not been a priority.

    Should be a fun weekend.., we are buckling down for the major snow storm heading our way!! Who knows might be a good weekend to be a kid again and go sled riding. That is always a good work out walking through heaps of snow and up a giant hill. I know my kids are excited!!

    No big plans for me this weekend. My son has a basketball game this afternoon, then the snow is supposed to start rolling in this evening -hoping we get the 6 -8” they are predicting, because I plan on gearing up and sledding in the neighborhood with my kids tomorrow!!
