    Happy Tuesday friends. How is everyone this week? @AbandondedKSCharger I am at 202 today, getting closer to that first goal of ‘being under 200’ which I am determined to do before June 1. Then I NEVER plan to see my weight start with a 2 again!

    Welcome all! I agree with @anothermfpuser, it doesn't matter how many times we jump back in, we are here and we can do this.

    @BrendanScrote I love your story!!! Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I bet you will have success :) We're glad you are here with us. I am also working on ...well for me reducing, not omitting, my alcohol consumption. Another great thread for that is called Less Alcohol May Challenge.

    It's Friday…….any goals to stay focused on the weekend!! Mine is to get 20 minutes of intentional exercise in both days.

    Have a great one what ever you do!

    Welcome all new posters and hi to any lurkers, you are most welcome too!

    So, I did my weekly review, no weight loss; but, I honestly logged every day and got out for 2 short walks in the past 7 days. Remember, I said small steps. To be honest, I had hoped to see a slight movement in my weight as my daily calorie average worked out to 1226/ day (my goal is 1200). I have an old scale so it only weighs in 1 lb increments, so I am being hopeful that perhaps I will see some scale movement in the next few days. I do believe my waist on my jeans is looser, or is that hopeful imagination 🤣.

    @AbandondedKSCharger good mini goal, if I may, I think I will try your goal of 20 minute of exercise each day, mine will be a walk! I will report in Monday, good luck!

    @BrendanScrote yep, I am also trying to reduce alcohol intake. Only had 6 Oz of wine last night with dinner, ugggh, I know my mantra is small steps, but really!!!

    Good luck to everyone this weekend, I don’t know about you, but I find weekends a real challenge, cheers Marian

    Happy Monday Eveyone! I hope you all had a successful and enjoyable weekend. I was successful and got out for a walk both Saturday and Sunday, which was a mini goal which @AbandondedKSCharger set for herself. Thanks again to @AbandondedKSCharger for the idea. How did you do @AbandondedKSCharger?

    Update on my ‘small steps’ plan:
    Log my diary, honestly everyday - yep, did it
    Hit my daily calorie goal - did it 5 days, it was the red wine On the weekend! 🤣

    So next small step for this week
    Up my daily water intake to 8 c/day
    Walk at least 4 days out of seven for a minimum of 20 minutes each walk
    No daily weighing on the scales this week, they are my enemy and demotivator - I will weigh at the end of the week.

    I wish I was moving faster but at least I am moving. How is everyone else doing?

    Cheers, Marian
