I see how you all have listed all the dates of January in your original post and then are able to go back in to that original post to update your weight on each date. I don't know how to do that so I have to start a new post each time. (I am sort of technically inept...haha. I'm open to hints and how-to's if anyone cares too...
)
Today's weight - Jan 2 = 219.8
up 3.3 lbs just since yesterday. I could easily resist the potatoes at New Year lunch but the bread did me in. Anyway, I can feel it's water and just good old fashioned bloat. Nothing a good workout, tons of water, and back on the proverbial wagon can't handle.
Happy New Year Everyone!4 -
Hi @rubypallas
We are copying and pasting the post in. I just go back and find my last post to copy into a new post, some keep it saved in a Word document, others use the quote feature and then take out the quote tag... that kind of thing. You can only edit an existing post for an hour so that's why it's necessary to do that.3 -

Hi all,
Happy New Year, everybody!
A bit more about me. I'm 63 years young (almost wrote 60... don't even feel that old most of the time). I live in Tucson, AZ. Born and raised, never lived anywhere else. Been divorced for 16 years. No current beaus. No past beaus either, for that matter.
I am mom to twingles (33 yo son Jeremy and 31 yo polar opposite twins Aislinn and Megan). Jeremy has his dream jobs up in the Phoenix area. Megan's a teacher on the other side of town from where I live. Aislinn lives with me because her mental health issues do not allow her to work. Ais has an emotional support dog, Sienna, who I will probably mention often because she's cute and I take her for walks and stuff, and a cat named Lisa Marie. I "run" (really using that word very loosely) and I bike, although I haven't done much of either recently. I read. A lot. I enjoy a good cuppa tea, Kiltlifter ale (brewed by Four Peaks Brewery in Tempe, AZ) and I had a marvelous double chocolate porter a few weeks ago called Sex Panther (brewed by San Tan Brewery which is also up in the Phoenix area and only a seasonal ale...), and Bailey's Irish Cream. The only one of those things I drink regularly is the tea. Don't drink any coffee. Love the smell, can't stand the taste. I drink way too much Diet Dr. Pepper and not nearly enough water. Megan and I do Geeks Who Drink on an almost weekly basis. I sing with a local community chorus. I love music and I love to dance. And, like this paragraph, I'll probably put more here than you ever wanted to know about me, although I will try to hide most of it as a "spoiler."
My goals include (from most difficult to the easiest)
🚦Getting started
🥤Drinking more water than diet soda
🥅 Staying within my calorie limits
📚☕Making sure I get some “me time”
😅🏃🏻♀️🚴🏻♀️ Exercising daily (at least 20 minutes total - not always an accurate time since I don't have a fitness watch, use my phone, and I'm not allowed to have my phone with me during the day at work, but it won't get a thumbs up unless I'm sure I've hit that 20-minute mark)
📔 Tracking every meal
⚖️Weighing myself daily is a given for me, so this will be the easiest one for me to accomplish.
Highest Weight: Somewhere between 227-230... I don't know. I avoided the scale.
Return to MFP after ~ 5-6 year absence (June 11, 2020) = 216.9
Starting weight for this challenge (January 1, 2022) = 191.6
Goal weight loss for January - just back into the 180s somewhere would make me happy at this point.
01/01/2022 – 191.6I spent most of the last two - three months eating my emotions, stress, depression, and anxiety. I did get some exercise in today, made my 20 minutes, even if I froze my *kitten* off doing so. Some people wouldn't think it was that cold here, but it was wet, windy, and less than 45º which might as well be below zero for this desert rat. LOL I can almost tolerate the less than 45º if it's dry and not windy, but the rain and wind did me in. I did track my food today... something I hadn't been doing much of for a good portion of December. I did NOT meet my calorie goal. And I got "me time" by staying up until 3:00 a.m. with a cuppa tea and a J.D. Robb book. (I've never been diagnosed with depression or anxiety, so it was mostly just general feelings of being nearly overwhelmed by my daughter's MH issues spiraling to the point of my being fearful for her safety and wondering if we'll have to put her in the hospital again... and feeling guilty because I don't know what to do or how to help her anymore than I have. And feeling even guiltier for sometimes thinking she's not doing enough to help herself. It's also financial s***, and just a general blahness over everything and feeling as if I'm a major failure at life. The latter is something I really need to work on much harder than I do but... chocolate and cookies are so much easier than convincing myself I'm not the loser I've come to feel like in recent months. I will do better. I will.)

Hello Everyone from before and Newbies!
I'm Mary 64, 5'4" from Pennsylvania. My goal is to get back down AGAIN to 122 lbs. Kept it off for about 5 years and then got lazy. My body just stores Carbs too easily. I work long hours and exercise on my 3 off days/week, making up for my 4 work days. I started this challenge in November and will continue through December and January. Great group of motivating members! Thank you Jill! My goal is 5 lbs for January. My other goal is 15 lbs for Nov, Dec and Jan. Welcome back everyone! JOIN US!

Happy New Year!
I am Jeanette. I have been at 157lbs for ever. My goal is to be at 150 by the end of this month.

Hi, "Thank you" to whoever started this challenge and thread.
I need to recover from this backslide drift I've been in over the past 10 weeks.
Goals:
To stop the backslide and reach my mini goal of 5lbs. less.
#1: To break habit of cruising the kitchen and eating while standing up.
#2: To break habit of mindlessly putting food in my mouth; think "Is it worthy? Is this wise?"\
#3: To complete my personal " Think 33" challenge. Will doing this be beneficial or will it sabotage my progress.
#4: Plan by having veggies prepped, healthy meals prepped.
#5: Record everything eaten
#6: Enter either calories or points
#7: Aim for IMPROVEMENT, not Perfection: Graph daily total points to give a visual
#8: End day with a Gratitude Journal; be kind to myself but don't allow indulgence. Re define "kind"

Happy new year everyone! I’m Athena. I am loving these challenges, they are helping me stay motivated!
My goal for this month is to start to focus on my physical activity, this is where I struggle the most. I plan to wake up and go to the gym on weekdays every morning for an hour and occasionally do classes in the afternoon. I’ll also continue to push to only eat out on weekends/on holidays. I am going to try to lose 4 pounds each month.

Hi, I'm Karen. I found the December challenge helpful so I'm back for January. Thanks for the accountability help!
Goals for January:
Weigh, track, stay within maintenance calories, exercise, gratitude every day.
Jan 1: 143.
Jan 2: 144.3. Didn't stay within maintenance calories last 2 days. Old problem of eating after I get home from a social thing. Need to go right to bed.
Jan 3: 142.4. Again above maintenance calories yesterday, but I avoided after dinner eating, so that was a success. Met my other goals.6 -
