    Where do you keep the boat? My scuba club has a rib at Portland - hopefully she can start to get a bit more use now.

    I have been baking up a storm this weekend: 6 batches of banana bread, chocolate cake with strawberry frosting (an order, not for me) and then donut holes. The result: I have nausea and heartburn. Heartburn?! The last time I had heartburn was when I was pregnant

    I hope it sorts quickly Nadine. 🤗

    Thanks Jo! You can share the cake for your birthday

    So, I had an official weigh in of sorts and I recorded some measurements and need this group's help and input:
    --Weight 221 from 231
    --% of Fat 27.9 from 31.6
    --Muscle Weight 150 (stayed same)
    --Hydration 49.4% which is low

    Daily caloric intake Goal is 1500 (From Doc) - I am hitting between 1200-1400 during the week, on weekends I do and can go over 50-100 calories.

    Daily workouts 40 min cardio intervals
    Mon, Wed, Fri - Push-ups and Crunches

    I am worried i am losing too much too fast, I am strict with food, but i notice hunger during weekends.. Please share thoughts here, friend me for ongoing support, motivation, collab - Thank You!

    Hey brother looking great. I really started with my getting healthy about 4 weeks ago. I've gone from 235.5 to as of this morning 224.2 (I had a cheat day that was sadly full of sodium and I feel it this morning). Not sure about my other numbers, but my pants are fitting better so that is a big NSV for me.
    I've been doing basic calisthenics everyday.... walk/jog 5k twice a week. About to kick it up a notch next week. H2O I try to get at least 3-4 liters a day.

    Hooray for Monday!!! We get our new fridge either today or tomorrow. Fingers crossed they can get it into the kitchen. The problem with older houses is new appliances. In the 1930s fridges weren't that big!

    Hi Im Bob, Im 380 my highest weight. Im determined to get to 180 this time. im 41 so if I dont do it now its probably hopeless. Join me on my journey if this resonates then add me please.

    You're in the right place, Bob. Almost everyone here has made numerous attempts to lose weight. More than I can count for myself. Figuring out a long term plan with sustainable life changes was the key for me. And the support and encouragement helped me a lot.

    Nice hike up Marys Peak. I was going to head out for a longer hike, but opted for a shorter option to get home and try out the smoker I inherited since I put some fresh albacore in marinade this morning. So glad I went. It was one of those rare day where you could see waves hitting the coast and the Cascade volcanoes.

    Now to wait a couple hours for the fish to smoke.

    Definitely enough room in that thing for much more than a one-pound albacore loin.

    I have tried everything to take this weight off. I hate to say it but I am quite discouraged. I thought if I would reach out to some other mfp people I could get motivated to keep trying. I love to hear what others are doing on their weight loss journey. Thanks for hearing me out.
