    Hi Everyone! I am excited to be part of TBBT team starting in January. I was on the Purple Phoenix time a number of times when it was on
    Sparkpeople, which I really miss.
    I am Marilyn, and I am a retired librarian from Ohio. I don’t have a lot of weight to lose, but I love the accountability and team spirit of BLC. I am doing Jenny Craig right now, and it is keeping me from gaining during the holidays.
    My starting weight is 150.

    Go Team!

    @redhatsenior Welcome Marilyn! Glad to have another book lover in the house! At least I assume... ;)

    @redhatsenior Marilyn welcome to our group! Glad to have another person with us. You'll find we are here for support, especially when you're venting a little. We all do it from time to time....but the encouragement we get here helps to readjust your mindset.
    @dracocapricorn and @rawrxamberx way to go ladies

    I will take it... been a bit with no tracking and no specific working out. Just mom Duty at the Holidays. I plan on continued grace until this weekend is over and then I will be back on semi track with workouts and logging. Second week in will be my major jump back.

    @kristiekay1962 Great exercise there! Total upper body workout! I live in southern Maryland and we so rarely get snow that my husband and I race each other to the shovel! 😂 We both grew up in Buffalo. 😁⛄❄️🥶

    I've been doing well the last few days, but new years eve is tomorrow night, and it's one of my favorite holidays of the year. We're going to a house party where there will be many temptations. I would love to hear your favorite ways to avoid temptations at these parties

    @everydaywechoose here are my suggestions
    1. Plant yourself away from the food.
    2. Have a glass of water for every alcoholic drink 🍹
    3. Enjoy yourself! It's only one day. 🥳🎊🎉🍾

    Good Morning Everyone. Last day of the year leads me to reflect...did I hit or miss on my resolutions for 2021 and what will I carry forward or change in 2022?

    The Hit and Must Carry Forward:
    1. I joined this group. Without it, I would not be where I am in my health pursuits and I am in a very good place. Thank you to everyone of you and to those who came, participated and moved on. I appreciate you more than you know, especially since I have been in absentia for the last 6 weeks or so.

    Which leads me to, The Miss:
    1. I took too big of a step back over the last 6 weeks thinking I needed the break from the accountability. Nope. Being here is not solely accountability to myself but support from the group and, in my own way, supporting others on their journey. No pressure, no expectations, just complete understanding and compassion...been there, felt that.

    Changes for 2022:
    1. Enjoy the process, successes are small and need to be appreciated. I learned this week at 64 almost 65 I can once again 'touch my toes' :-)! I can play baseball with my 4 and 2 year old grandkids in the park...and hit the whiffle ball out of the park! I can walk into any women's clothing store (not just the 'generous sized women's stores') and find clothing to fit...off the rack!

    Such joy in the little things. I know you 'get it', not everyone does. The roller coaster ride is really frustrating some days but looking at the culmination of a year commitment, I see more successes than I ever could have anticipated.

    So, thank you for your support. Again.

    Have a very fun, and very safe New Year.

    Hi guys. I am still here (sort of). My son's girlfriend arrived from Europe on the 28th so sitting at my computer has not been high on my list of things to do (nor has eating anything remotely healthy!) Just trying to get caught up....

    Missing weights from:

    @IvanaKirilova (Mon)
    @Fit_Prit (Thurs)
    @cmhubbard92 (Fri)

    To those of you who have continued to post and encourage one another over the holidays, a sincere thank you! This truly is a great group of ladies!!
