    Hi Everyone
    This seems like a great group! I’m in Colorado and the yo-yo Queen👑! Ok, time to shed another 25-30 for good.

    Hi all, I'm in! I enjoy these groups with interaction from the "older" folks. I'm 56, but most days don't feel it -- been on MFP since 2012, and though I only want to lose a few lbs./maintain -- I've let exercise slide a bit lately so I'm getting back at it!

    It's a new day; what is everyone's challenge for today? I am terrible at meal planning and do not have anything planned for dinner tonight. Lack of planning is where I get in to trouble because then I eat what is quick and easy.

    I had 2 challenges today. I had a conference with a working lunch and the restaurant they chose had no items that would fit in my diet... not even salads. I brought 2 power bars and blueberries and just drank a diet coke.
    Then I had to go back to work for a community barbeque and open house for our families. Again, I was able to only eat the low calorie meal I brought and avoid the hamburgers, potato salad, chips and cookies.
    Why does all social and work events have to center around food?
    Knowing tomorrow is my weigh in helped me be strong.

    @TonyB0558 I think those steps would kill me - are there at least some Sherpas half way up or a base camp? Great achievement!
    @LynnJ9 Brill result - keep it up

    Welcome to anyone I've missed, been a tricky day today and so I'm off to bed for a bit. Wake me up in a week or so.
