Back to the food log for me! Excercise has been pretty good despite the torrential rains, but clearly need to be more aware.
I try to do my food diary first thing in the morning and then add measurements as I have my meals. Great job getting exercise in in spite of the rain.Pauladner

Pretty happy with this morning's weigh-in as my mother was in town for Mother's Day and we ate out for every meal. I tried to make good choices, and practice portion control. This was most difficult when my kids took us out for a Mother's Day brunch, but I survived!6 -

Long story but I didn’t make it to the pool yesterday. I did get a walk in and that’s what I will do today. I have my sick granddaughter today while her parents work. Not too worried about getting sick as I have had a slight cold since Saturday.4 -

My apologies, I have been absent this past week. Megan can you please remove me from the step challenge. I'll will still be counting my steps just taking a break from the challenge.0 -
I am back in town from my beach house vacation to celebrate my college graduation. I have not been counting calories or eating properly most of this month but I am so thankful to report that I haven't gained much weight back. I look forward to getting back on track starting today!

Great question! I decided to finally get serious about getting healthy because I am one of the very lucky parents who is blessed to have a great relationship with their child (children actually). My daughter would be my best friend if I hadn't birthed her, and I don't want to miss a single day with her or my son-in-law. They are absolutely my best blessing and my brightest joy. They are on a fertility journey that hasn't worked out great so far, but when it does, I want to have every moment possible with my grandchild.4 -

I love this. I have the same relationship with my daughter... she was a huge reason I finally got my head on straight. Thanks so much for sharing, my friend.1 -

At 58 i couldn't walk, due to my weight causing a knee injury. I just sat around eating and getting fatter! Had to decide if that was how i was going to spend the rest of my life or if i was going to stop eating and start living!2 -

I was about to turn 40. My dad died of a heart attack at age 51 and both my grandfathers passed away from heart attacks at age 50. I was close to 400 pounds. I either had to make a change or not see 50 years old. And I was just tired of feeling crummy. It's no fun being 400 pounds. Worried about whether you can fit into a seat or whether it can hold your weight. Knees hurting, stomach and other health issues.
I feel SO much better now. Today I ran 5km, went to work and then immediately to 2 hours of baseball. It's now midnight and I'm smoking a few joints on my porch cause I just got home from ball and I'm completely wound lol.2
