    Happy Thursday. I'm still getting used to the app. It's about worthless on the phone because of all the ads for Premium, but it works fine from the PC. Another day logged as promised.

    It’s amazing what logging everything and exercise can do! Feeling fabulous. 🥰 Time to do some quick exercise with Up to the BEat fit with Gina B on YouTube then it’s time to take down the Christmas tree and decorations before heading back to work tomorrow.

    Hello I'm Darlene and have been with this group for a while now. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2023. 💖I wouldn't be where I am today without this group (along with a couple other challenges I am in); I am so thankful for their support and accountability. 💖

    My Goals for January

    ⚖️ Lose 4 pounds (always my goal)
    👣17k Steps Daily with one day of rest
    📝 Log Daily
    🥗 Stay under my calorie range
    💪 Strength Train 3 days per week
    🧘‍♀️ Tai Chi or Yoga 1 day per week
    💦 6+ glasses of water

    👣 📝 🥗 💪 🧘‍♀️ 💦

    Highest Weight 228

    SW Dec: 228 | Jan: 217 | Feb: 212 | Mar: 207.6 | Apr 200.2 | May 194.8 | Jun: 189.6 | Jul: 187.4 | Aug: 179.8 | Sept: 174.2 | Oct: 169.6 | Nov 164.6 | Dec 164

    December Ending Weight 164

    Jan 1: 163.8 👣 📝 🥗 💦 Happy New Year!
    Jan 2: 163.8 👣 📝 🥗 💦 Met my New Year's goal - did a 10K walk yesterday AM. Was ravenous all day, but managed to stay under my calorie limit by 5 calories. I would say a successful day. I'm still .2 pounds away from my lowwest weight (just before Christmas).
    Jan 3: 162.8 😁 👣 📝 🥗 💦 Funny thing happened to yesterday. Greg, Monty and I started the Airline Trail today (I am feeling nostalgic so want to do it again, and we started off with a big one day 6.2 miles. When we got back to the car, Greg noticed he didn't have his wallet. Thought he left it on the counter at home. Got home, no wallet, now we think he must have dropped it on the trail as we were walking, so we drove back to the trail at the half way point. Greg went one way - I went the other looking for the wallet, another 3.7 miles and didn't find it. When we got home - Greg remembered he took the truck out yesterday - left it in the center console. LOL! So, my 6.2 walked turned into 9.9, silver linings I guess! Here are some pictures from the walk (the first time).

    Billy AZ you are a superhero man! What are you doing to lose 10.6 pounds in 4 days? Is this the beginning of a new program for you? Low carb or keto?

    Hi Stormy,

    It’s the very beginning so I expected a decent loss in the first few days. No way this could or should continue but I’m not unhappy with the initial results.

    I’ve been juicing, one low calorie meal a day, 19-hour fasting and upped the exercise with gym sessions and tennis every day. The diet is the big change though. I’ll be upping the calories tomorrow to balance out more as 1000 calories a day isn’t enough according to both MFP and my wife!

    Hi all I'm Linda from Northen Ontario Canada. An old gal of 75 but that's just a number your only as old as you want to be. Seen a few here from Canada. Starting this morning at 200. My goal is to get under 200 for tops this week. Before you ask tops stands for take off pounds sensibly. My thing this year is eat less move more. I'll be back tomorrow if I can find this.

    Hi! Call me Bee - Im a married 43yo, 5'6" from Canada. 13y ago went from 190 to low 130s then steadily climbed 100lbs higher than my highest weight. This time around I'd like to adjust better mentally as well to KEEP the health improvements.

    Log all food 🍽
    5 water bottles daily (to start) 🌊
    6.5k steps daily (to start) 👣
    Daily 30m walk 🦶

    Jan 2 - 287.5⚖️🍽🌊👣🦶🤸‍♀️
    Jan 3 - 284⚖️🍽🌊👣
    Jan 4 - 284.5⚖️🌊👣🦶 (so far)

    I had to play around with my 10+yo digital scale until I had 2 matching numbers.. think on my birthday next month I'm going to request a new one! 😂

    Your story sounds so similar to mine, and we’re a similar age and weight. Would love to be my fitness pal friends and cheer each other on!

    Hi everyone,

    Forgive my weakness, but I just can't weigh myself every day - the fluctuations are making me crazy! Basically it's been like this:

    DEC 31: 146.2
    JAN 01: 146.2
    JAN 01: 147.2
    JAN 03: 147.4
    JAN 04: 148.2

    WHAAAT?! I definitely haven't eaten enough to gain any weight, let alone two whole pounds! It's too discouraging and I'm afraid I'll give up!

    I will just stick with my weekly weigh-ins every Sunday (on Jill's other board); so my next weigh-in will be Sunday, January 7th.

    Best wishes to all! 💗
    Carole

    I don't weigh daily either! It's not great for my mental health. I check my weight once a week. I check in here daily with an update on which goals I worked on. And chatting with everyone is a great bonus 😁
